[Commpsych] FW: NPW Webinar Mon 2 November 12-1pm AEDST - Leadership in a Cross-Cultural Context - last chance to book

[Heather Gridley]

Apologies for any cross-postings, but this is a last-minute reminder about Monday's webinar on Leadership in a Cross-Cultural Context. The panel of speakers is particularly exciting:

Peter Young is the outspoken psychiatrist who first broke the silence around conditions for detainees on Christmas island, Nauru and Manus island. I'm keen to hear what he has to say about professional ethics in such contexts - and what leadership means for resisting the whistleblower restrictions in the Border Force Act, or caring for the needs of refugees like 'Abyan'.

Jasmine Sliger is the dynamic organisational and counselling psychologist who challenges us to engage with worlds, people and cultures beyond our professional and personal comfort zones.

Mathilde Parta has recently returned from her AVI assignment in Jordan's refugee camps.

Each of these people has pushed the boundaries of leadership, culture and notions of 'border protection', and Monday's webinar invites us to share their insights for an hour over lunchtime in the daylight saving states, or a morning cuppa elsewhere.
