Objective:

Course participants to develop their leadership, influencing and communication skills. To have an opportunity to strengthen their networks and develop career plans to help position them for leadership opportunities in their workplace.

The short course will be delivered for up to 25 participants including female Australia Awards alumni and public servants in leadership roles.

The course can be delivered through a combination of face to face and online teaching. However, it is recognised that COVID-19 restrictions may result in a high percentage of the course being delivered online.  As such the provider will need to be able to switch course content as required.

International consultants need to take account of current travel restrictions to Timor-Leste and should therefore hold existing connections in country to support course delivery. 

Local knowledge of the Timor-Leste context including an understanding of the experience of women working in organisations and government departments in country is also highly desirable.
