2022 Emerging Leaders Program

The 2022 Emerging Leaders Program brings together entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs – young people that have founded social enterprises and those that are innovating from within – to develop their leadership and learn how to maximise their impact.

We know working for and building a social enterprise is not always smooth sailing, and can sometimes feel like an isolating experience when it comes to addressing challenges and celebrating the wins. The purpose of the 2022 Emerging Leaders program is to make the social enterprise journey for young people in Victoria feel easier, more supported, educational and celebrated.

Emerging Leaders Principles

Leadership

Develop leadership skills to sustainably scale their impact – to make bold steps when others stop.

Connection and Continuity

Young people bring strength, energy and optimism to their communities. We will expand personal and professional networks and provide a network that will endure and grow with SENVIC.

Collaboration

We all have a role to play. Leadership skills of the future need to harness co-creation and sharing to embed and promote relationships of trust.

Humble Audacity

Emerging leaders have the confidence to set audacious goals and to communicate their vision with the humility of knowing they can only be reached with a generosity of spirit and the efforts of many.
