Thanks so much for leading us through this program, Genevieve. I had not undertaken any personal development for quite some time - with the pull of business survival post-COVID and trying to find that elusive work-life balance any form of introspection seemed selfish and a poor use of time. This program struck me as a perfect antidote, in that it addressed my leadership within not only my organisation but within the local tourism industry as a whole.

Post-COVID and following all the trials and tribulations and daily spot-fire management, it was certainly refreshing to step back and look up and ahead.

While it is early days to consider what I have implemented, I am aware of different reference points in my own behaviour, and the behaviour of others within my organisation. I am striving to introduce more structure and accountability, and perhaps most importantly I have realised I am not facing the daily challenges of a small tourism business alone – I have met others in a similar position and now have a framework to reach out if required.

This program has enabled me to be more confident facing an uncertain future within the industry and has given me the tools to not only manage my day to day better but also to plan for the future.

Hats off to Genevieve for keeping us on track, on task, and focused on what was an excellent, worthwhile program.
