Leadership Fundamentals has evolved into
Real Leadership
ONE DAY WORKSHOP | 9am-4:30pm
We've taken the course design to the next level, making sure the learning sticks even more than before, with more time on the tools that matter, such as feedback, delegation and questions.
Already done Leadership Fundamentals? Real Leadership is the evolved version of the same workshop – you don't need to rebook. The core tools you already have are the same ones we teach today.
We get it. Leading others is totally different from being on the tools. People can be tricky, everyone operates differently, and trying to manage it all can be a lot.
Real Leadership gives you the confidence and the practical skills to get the best out of your team and yourself, starting the very next day.

What's in it for you
No theory for theory's sake. This is hands-on, practical, and built for immediate use - tools you can actually use the next day – not just ideas you nod along to and forget when you walk out the door.
Know You, Your Team and Your Environment
Great leaders know who they are – their values and their actions – the good and the bad. Great leaders also make time to really know their teams and how they’re shaping their environment, so it’s a place that everyone wants to turn up to every day.
Build Your Leadership Skills
Even greater leadership comes down to how you demonstrate leadership, and the key skills you should be doing on a regular basis: Listening, Rapport, Clarity, Questions, Connection, Feedback and Delegation.
Get Results
When you’ve got a solid foundation matched with strong leadership skills, you’ll get great results for you, your team and your business.
What you'll walk away with
By the end of the day, you'll leave knowing how to:
Define your own leadership style
Build stronger relationships with your team
Understand how your environment shapes the way you lead
Use core leadership skills to help you get the results you want

This isn't a one-and-done
Most workshops end when the day ends. Real Leadership doesn't.
A couple of weeks after the workshop, we bring the group back together for our Real Leadership Check-In — a free, 1-hour online session where you'll:
Get a quick refresh on the key leadership skills from the workshop
Share how your action plan is actually going — wins and roadblocks, no filter
Get live coaching on your specific situation
It's how we make sure what you learned on the day doesn't just stay in the workbook.
Details of the session including the link will be sent once your registration is confirmed.

Real Leadership For Tradies
We get it - leading a crew is a whole different ball game from being on the tools.
Leadership on-site is more than just buying the team a pie and a V on a Friday. People can be tricky, everyone operates differently, and trying to manage it all can be a lot.
That's why we've created Real Leadership specifically for tradies. You'll gain practical, no-BS tools to lead with confidence, get the best out of your crew, and spend less time jumping in to do the job yourself.
Real Leadership For New & Aspiring Leaders
Being a great team member is one thing, stepping up as a leader is something else entirely.
If you’re in your first couple of years leading others, or getting ready to take on a leadership role, this workshop is for you.
Making the jump from being a peer to being ‘the boss’ is a big step. Real Leadership for New & Aspiring Leaders gives you the confidence and practical tools to lead effectively, build strong team relationships, and succeed in your new role from day one.
"Their support helped shape our leadership team. Andrew presented with such passion, such an insight and brought so much energy to our team and everyone here.
I believe this workshop would benefit any organisation, the tools and takeaways are invaluable and I would happily recommend it to anyone!"
Natalie Brownlie | General Manager, The Waterboy with Lugtons
