Celebrating 10 Years of the HunterNet Future Leaders Program

This year, the HunterNet Future Leaders Program (FLP) marked a remarkable milestone – 10 years of developing and empowering the Hunter’s emerging leaders! From insightful masterclasses to hands-on projects and high-impact networking, the program continues to equip future leaders with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to thrive in today’s fast-paced business environment.

Highlights from 2025

The celebration of a decade of leadership development culminated in the 10th Anniversary Gala Dinner & Awards at Noah’s on the Beach, where participants, alumni, mentors, and member organisations came together to celebrate the achievements of our talented cohort.

Congratulations to the 2025 Winning Project Team, GWTW Consulting, who collaborated with Industrial Gaskets & Sealants under the guidance of mentor Jaimee Tobin (Anglican Group, 2016 Alumni). Team members Ambrosius Abner, Zoe Armitage, Thomas Boyes, Veronica Price, and Angus Reedy showcased exceptional innovation, collaboration, and leadership—perfectly embodying this year’s theme: The Power of Many.

Throughout the year, participants took part in a variety of impactful sessions, including:

  • Futurist Insights with Dr Ben Hamer on trends shaping the future workplace and leadership.

  • Commercial Acumen & Contracts Masterclass with FLP alum Suzie Leask.

  • Sales, Marketing & Business Development Masterclass with Baidy Barton.

  • Teamwork & DISC Profiles with Jane McConville.

  • High-Performance Culture Development with Wayne Pearce.

  • Mental Health & Wellbeing with Steven Gamble.
