Leading at the Edge Symposium on September 11, 2025 in Hobart, Australia

In a world defined by disruption, constraint, and rapid change, the Leading at the Edge Symposium offers a space for leaders to pause, reflect, and reframe how they lead. This one-day event brings together thinkers and practitioners from across disciplines to explore how we can turn limitations into opportunities and pressure into progress. Held in the heart of Hobart, Tasmania, the symposium invites leaders from across sectors and borders to engage with the urgent leadership challenges of our time.

Participants will learn from a curated lineup of expert voices in psychology, neurobiology, artificial intelligence, and social change. The program blends global insight with local relevance, drawing on Tasmania’s unique context to reflect wider leadership questions around adaptability and complexity in an era of constraints. Keynotes, interactive workshops, and panel conversations will explore leadership from multiple perspectives. 

Whether you’re a senior executive, policymaker, business owner, community leader, or leadership scholar, this is an opportunity to step beyond the noise and reimagine what effective leadership looks like in a constrained world. We welcome national and international participants to join us in Hobart — not only for the rich learning experience, but also to connect with a dynamic network of peers who are committed to leading and learning.
