One of the drivers impacting on the disability sector in South Australia is that of leadership development and to address this the SA Health and Community Services Skills Board has organised a Change Management Program as part of the Disability Sector Workforce Development project, funded by DFEEST.

The Skills Board is fortunate to have attracted UK based Change Management Specialist Kevin Paton to deliver a three day workshop for disability sector leaders to be held on 22-24th July 2008.  Please click here for further information.  He will also be facilitating a half day public Challenges of Change seminar on 25th July.  Click here for details

On Monday 21st July a luncheon has been scheduled to welcome Kevin and to launch the program.  This will be held at the South Australian Learning Centre at Minda Inc, King George Avenue, Brighton.  For further information of this event please click here.
