The Mind Lab offers programmes designed to enable educators and leaders to harness transformation to inspire positive change and foster resilience within teams, community groups, schools or organisations.

The Mind Lab - Faculty page

The Mind Lab was created in 2013 to develop leaders who lean into uncertainty and change. We recognise that highly effective leadership is situationally responsive regardless of context, sector or location. We believe that leading positive change means not only responding to unexpected situations but being able to proactively recognise when changes in leadership are required to create supportive and effective work and learning environments. Our programmes have been developed for educators, business and community leaders who strive for impact, sustainability and measurable outcomes.

Digital Skills for the Workplace

As leaders, we are constantly under the pump to make good decisions, often with far-reaching and sometimes unintended consequences. Many of these decisions are instinctive, reactive and without significant prior consideration or insight. We too often move into a form of autopilot, trading on experience, past knowledge and experiences that have worked before. As our work, classroom, organisation or community needs change we need to develop new ways to bring contemporary knowledge and decision-making to the forefront of our response. The Mind Lab is a faculty dedicated to sharing the frameworks and systems needed to create positive change through planned action and strategically sound decision-making. We support the development of new methodologies to help form sound strategies that enable problem-solving and actions that produce long-term benefits for all. Learn how to align all areas of your organisation to not only respond to change and complexity, but to thrive in and benefit from uncertainty.

Regardless of the position or level you currently hold in your organisation, you can become a great leader. Not all leaders are extroverted, charismatic or highly experienced. Many leaders quietly excel in building trusted relationships, built upon consistent communication and a sense of reliability. Leadership actions and responses are not fixed, but rather they change as circumstances morph and shift. This requires the ability to understand the need for new inputs that support the development of a strong team culture, led by clarity and transparency. Whether you are looking for a Master&#039;s qualification, or you just need better insights on how to build the skills to lead an effective team culture, we have a programme option for you.
