Tap a Future Leader on the shoulder before 9 March

Do you know someone with the potential to be a future leader for the Australian wine community, contributing to its long-term success?

Then as a current leader of the sector, we ask you to ‘tap them on the shoulder’ and encourage them to apply for Future Leaders 17, Australian grape and wine’s leadership development program.

Visit www.winefutureleaders.com and ‘tap someone on the shoulder’ via email or tag them using #FL2017.

The 91 Future Leaders alumni include winemakers, grapegrowers and viticulturists, business managers and marketers, suppliers and researchers, who have already demonstrated the strong leadership and vision required to position Australia as a fine wine leader on the global stage.

Angela Brown, Sales and Marketing Director at All Saints Estate and Future Leaders 15 graduate, offered her thoughts on what inspired her to put in an application.

‘Instead of sitting back and wishing the industry was different, I decided to step up and be part of the Future Leaders of the industry so that I could be better armed with knowledge of how the industry works and how I could play a part in leading change.’
