February will be an exciting time for the Future Focus Group as the 55 participants (26 women and 29 men) meet for the first time as an entire group at the Induction Weekend on 19-21 February, 2010. The weekend will again take place at RACV’s Cape Schanck Resort.
Workshop sessions will include: • Getting to know the Committee for Melbourne and its vision • Getting to know the other participants • Leadership within groups • Project presentations • Alumni small group presentations
The weekend will again include sessions with Leading Teams, a leadership development organisation, and Troupe du Jour, an interactive troupe of actors who help clients to open themselves to learning in different ways.
The Alumni Association will again be active this year and will hold its first event on Thursday 6 May, 2010 with the guest speaker being Professor Rob Adams AM from the City of Melbourne. Prof. Adams will present on the challenges created by Melbourne’s expanding population.
Seven Alumni from the 2008-2009 program will also generously give up their time to present at the Induction Weekend.
The 2010-2011 program presents an opportunity to refine and expand on the program that has been developed over the past two years.
The Future Focus Group is the Committee’s business leadership program and is in its 15th year of operation.
