Alumni EXchange

When was the last time you gave yourself a WOF?

Join us for a relaxed online event with your fellow academyEX Masters and Postgraduate alumni - full of good conversation, good company, and a little space to check in with yourself.

Our new Director of Learning, Debi Futter-Puati will talk with our very own Perrin Rowland about why wellbeing matters more than ever in how we live, learn, and lead. She’ll also guide us through a light, reflective activity (inspired by the hauora model) to help you tune into what’s going on for you - think a mid-year WOF inside and out.

It’s a chance to reconnect, recharge, and leave feeling a little more in sync. We’d love to see you there.
