What is the Community Leadership Program?

The Community Leadership Program (CLP) is run annually and aims to create community capacity building in the City of Marion.

The CLP provides quality training to participants to:

  • Enhance leadership skills
  • Increase networks within the community
  • Increase interpersonal communication skills
  • Increase confidence in public speaking
  • Influence influencing and negotiation skills
  • Access to mentoring opportunities
  • Increase and understanding emotional intelligence
  • Plus much more!

How to apply

We are currently busy planning this year's program so please check back soon for dates and more information. Applications will open in mid 2024.

Feedback from previous year's program

"I think this program not only taught you how to communicate and become a successful leader, it also was very useful to make you self-aware on a personal level. It was an amazing course. The facilitators and special guests definitely helped create a comfortable environment to be able to open up and be okay with being vulnerable."

"Highly recommend! A power packed skill and confidence building course that offers opportunity to connect with like minded community passionate people and build relationships, programmes and well anything we can that helps make Marion a better city to live work and play!"

"Great opportunity to feed one another’s passion, curiosity, commitment to community; and to develop a supportive local network of doers!"
