SIGN UP TODAY

Thanks to Growing Leaders for expanding my education and showing me that there is always space to learn and give back to the industry. I will be applying for a Diploma of Horticultural Business next year. With this Diploma and what I have learnt from Growing Leaders, I am hoping to be a strong leader in this industry in the near future.

As a direct result of completing Growing Leaders, I was nominated for the Rising Star of the year award which I won. It opened up huge opportunities for my career. I was offered several jobs as a Senior Agronomist after winning the award (which hangs proudly on my office wall) one of which I took up and have been and have been able to expand my agronomic experiences.

I completed the National Seafood Industry Leadership Program and it has given me more confidence to engage with people and a greater understanding of the whole industry.

Since completing Growing Leaders I've taken on a leadership role and now manage several staff. I've gained self-confidence and stepped outside my comfort zone.

The National Seafood Industry Leadership Program has provided me with the skills and analysis tools to work out effective leadership.

"The NSILP has been the best personal development program I have completed."

The Growing Leaders Program has given me more confidence as a public speaker.

Working with Affectus will expose your team to the national produce platform and this exposure is priceless.

I felt inspired and uplifted by the talk, which was full of ‘flavour’ and energy. Jill is a natural story teller – a skill that never fails to capture a crowd.

Jill's speech was concise, pertinent and absolutely on message for our current needs. We couldn't help but feel our goals are within our reach.

Working with Affectus provides you with vital skills you need to operate and grow your business.

Completing Growing Leaders has made me a better leader and opened up opportunities for the business I worked for to develop strong collaboration in business with other participating leaders.

I learnt that most decisions in life are made from a ripple that somehow has touched an emotion within. An idea from raw feelings became a full-blown passion, a passion that services many people.

Thank you very much for running a fantastic program for the horticultural industry. I certainly learned a lot about leadership and made some really good connections with many bright young Vegetable Industry leaders which will help a lot with my career.
