ABOUT
Open to members of the ACE Network and other experienced, established producers of a similar level, the ACE Leadership Special takes place over two 3/4-day residential workshops with additional online sessions complementing them. 12 producers will be selected, each with their own experience of running a company and their own unique entrepreneurial capabilities, allowing the small group to benefit not only from the knowledge of the workshop consultants, but from each other’s lived experiences.
In a safe environment, which encourages trust and vulnerability, the ACE Leadership Special helps participants upgrade their capabilities in an all-encompassing approach through three interlinking themes: the human being, the entrepreneur, and the manager. Focusing on this triad of roles, the programme covers the following topics:
- How to be a more effective leader: Improving personal leadership and management performance by looking at the human being behind the leader
- How to plan and form strategy as an entrepreneur in a changing world: Improving the performance and prospects of the business
- How to get the most from the team you rely upon: Improving the performance of the people involved in the business.
Selected producers can apply to Telefilm’s International Promotion Program for financial support to attend this event if they meet the eligibility criteria.
