Professional development for people in renewables

Deakin University’s Waurn Ponds Estate in Geelong, Victoria, is set to host the inaugural Clean Energy Executive Program, where the renewable energy industry’s high performers will come together for six days of networking, presentations and professional and personal development.

Held from 13-18 November, 2022, and presented by the Clean Energy Management Institute, in conjunction with Streamwise Learning, the event aims to enhance leadership skills for people in the clean energy supply chain in Australia and New Zealand.

The forum will address how the renewables industry is coping with business model disruption, accelerating technology innovation and resilience, and engaging business insiders, executives and experienced teachers.

The program has been developed by Streamwise Learning founding director Dr Melinda Muth, who has run industry focused programs for more than 20 years. She specialises in leadership development, team effectiveness, emotional intelligence and managerial decision making.

The Clean Energy Executive Program’s faculty also includes founder John Huggart (pictured above); Professor Tony Arnel, industry professor, Deakin University; Lex Dwyer, facilitator, Corporate Fitness Service; Phil Joynes, director, Streamwise Learning; and Lisa Smith from Minds at Work.
