Ignite for Outdoor Workers

About the program

This program is tailored  to outdoor workers who are new or with limited experience in a supervisory role, have no previous formal leadership training and want to extend and update their leadership skills or are interested in moving into a supervisory role in the future.

This program is a leadership learning pathway for Supervisors, Team Leaders and Coordinators working in outdoor workers roles in Local Government.

The program content and case studies have been adapted so they are relevant to the duties outdoor workers perform. 

The sessions include examples that participants can take back and use in their workplace setting.

With over 20 years in general management and senior management positions in large multi-national companies, local government and state government, Ingrid specialises in strategy, business transformation and performance across diverse industries and sectors at both a strategic and operational level.  Utilising leadership principles and business fundamentals, Ingrid’s focus is to maximise efficiencies, growth and productivity, and improve the customer experience.

 
With a ‘coal face’ understanding of operations, workforce planning, diversification and service provision, complemented by a deep understanding of workplace culture and organisational behaviour, Ingrid can mobilise teams and effect change quickly in response to business goals and demands.  
 
Ingrid owns and operates two businesses - Alchemy Corporate Consulting, working closely with the local government sector; and the other is electrical contracting.

"Even though I have been a supervisor for over 3 years, I am always looking of ways to improve and learn how to be a better leader. When I heard there was program designed especially for Outdoor works I was interested to see what areas I could improve upon."
 
"It’s been good meeting people from other councils and seeing that they are dealing with similar experiences and learning from each other."
