The PSMP has provided me with a best practice toolkit that allows me to look at complex problems from a very different perspective. It has also reinforced the importance of ensuring the teams I lead within my organisation build strong relationships with stakeholders to develop and implement well-informed and innovative solutions to address these challenges.

The PSMP gave me the confidence I needed to pursue my dream role of running an organisation, a role that I am proud to say I now have. The relationships that I developed through the program have been invaluable.

After a few decades in the public sector, the program has been good for me to do something outside of what I’ve always known and to rise to the challenge of formal education. It’s also been a good opportunity to meet other people at my level and above to discuss our learnings together.

I was inspired to apply after observing other female leaders in my organisation and wanting to achieve that level of leadership. The program is opening my eyes to how leadership is conducted in the public sector and how to translate those learnings into my organisation. It’s helping me to perform better.
