Program Facilitators  

The program will be facilitated by Coo-ee Collective, who facilitated the previous iteration of the Emerging Leaders Program.

The Coo-ee Collective team; Jeanette Long, Beck Burgess, Danielle Lannin England and Jeanette Gellard, are trained and experienced facilitators who are passionate about developing people within regions. They have developed and delivered a range of leadership training in industries and communities across South Australia. Living and working in regional Australia, they ‘live and breathe’ what they teach. They will provide personal experiences about being on boards and committees within industry and their local communities. The modules they deliver will be interactive and engaging with opportunities to apply learning through practical activities.

testimonials from 2022/23 emerging leaders participants

Thank you so much for offering this super valuable program, I’ve found it so helpful in my role as a volunteer, on committees & boards, as an employee and as a volunteer recruiter!
Christina UnderwoodSouthern Flinders Ranges Program
Thank you very much for the opportunity to attend the training and for such an affordable cost. It was a fantastic opportunity and has definitely broadened my knowledge and built my confidence.
Megan O'ShaughnessySouthern Flinders Ranges Program
Our regional areas thrive on the contributions made by volunteer organisations. These small under resourced organisations are made of dedicated people who do not always have the skill sets required to manage an organisation. This program certainly allowed me to develop new skills while sharpening old skills. This program meets the shortfall head on and should continue to be funded so that other organisations can benefit like ours have and other individuals can benefit as I have.
Matthew StockYorke Peninsula Program
The content and the facilitators were great. I hope the training can continue to be offered as the community does benefit greatly from all the groups and committees' contributions and having more informed and confident members.
Amy O'Shea-CoulterMid North Program
This is a great initiative. So many things in rural communities are ran or supported by volunteers. Providing opportunities to upskill the volunteers allows a step change in the quality of service provided, confidence of the individuals involved and a fantastic network of leverage to support the community here.
Sarah WelkeMid North Program
The Emerging Leaders Program with RDAMYN has given me a greater sense of awareness and understanding of how to lead by example, how to implement strategies and ideas without creating or increasing conflict, and how to work confidently with a variety of people. I found this group of people and facilitators to be like-minded and generous with their information sharing and their time and I have been astounded at the array of skills and experiences everyone has. This is a terrific 'short' course in a comfortable and engaging forum and I've really enjoyed my time.
