About Ignite Rural Leadership Programmes in Taranaki
The two-day Ignite Rural Leadership Programme is designed to develop your leadership and coaching skills in a practical, hands-on setting.
The programmes are held regularly around Taranaki with facilitator Brett Robinson and include follow-up one-on-one coaching as well as comprehensive programme notes to help you embed your learning into everyday practice.
Who's it for?
The programme is ideal for anyone with leadership aspirations, especially those in farming or rural supply businesses. Using New Zealand rural case studies, it is easy to relate to, and attracts a diverse mix of attendees, from farmers and 2ICs to rural business professionals, creating an engaged, relaxed, and collaborative learning environment.
