  Online workshop | Environmental Leadership: Tools they don't teach - Increasing your impact as an environmental professional | Workshop 6

  Ordinary leadership training isn't designed for environmental professionals. We face unique challenges - from navigating complex stakeholder dynamics to driving systems change while managing scientific uncertainty. Environmental leadership demands resilience, the ability to perceive and respond to interconnected factors, and skills to hold organisations accountable while safeguarding the wellbeing of species and ecosystems.

  This program fills the gap. Rather than learning generic leadership theory, you'll be guided by an environmental leadership expert and learn to use tools specifically designed for environmental professionals working in complex, high-stakes contexts.

  Online workshop | Meaningful public participation and Impact Assessment: Tools for effective engagement and communications | Workshop 2

  Public participation, often referred to as community engagement, is a cornerstone of impact assessment (IA) and planning approvals processes. However, ongoing challenges to meaningful engagement include:

  • the complexity of the regulatory environment,
  • navigating uncertainty in impact assessment of policies, plans, programmes or projects, and
  • often low levels of public trust in organisations involved in these endeavours, the media, and governance processes[1].

  Join EIANZ and facilitator Tanya Burdett, for training in public participation, with a focus on impact assessment, explores 13 foundational, essential and contextual elements that combine to form meaningful engagement in IA.

  [1] The 2025 Edelman Trust Barometer suggests 61% have moderate or higher sense of grievance, with impacts on trust; and there are similarly low levels of trust in the emerging role of AI according to a recent KPMG / MelbUni study on trust, attitudes and AI use here
