Network members are encouraged to suggest topics and speakers for upcoming network sessions. Please call (02) 6202 3781 or email ldn@apsc.gov.au if you have anything you would like to discuss.
The Leadership Development Network has undergone a name change, and is now known as the EL Leadership Network. The LDN had previously focussed on HR and L&D issues and membership attracted practitioners in these fields. The network proved to be very popular and reflected the broadening interest in leadership issues at the with EL level more generally across the APS. It is considered that the name change more accurately reflects the expanding network.
Subscriptions are now available for the 08/09 EL Leadership Network series, which is due to commence in September. Please find attached an information flyer and a registration form for the 08/09 Subscription Series. We look forward to seeing you again, or welcoming new subscribers at our first 08/09 breakfast event.
Coming soon

Mr Leeper will speak on 'Departmental and Personal Perspectives of Leadership' at The Boat House on 28 August 2008. This will be the last breakfast event in the 07/08 subscription series.
