People development and leadership

Photo: Ewen Bell / Wine Australia

We need leaders to pursue our ambitious cross-generational goal of being recognised as the world’s pre-eminent wine-producing country.

To help the sector achieve this, Wine Australia supports the next generation of grape and wine community leaders to develop their leadership and personal skills.

Our leaders are from all parts of the Australian grape and wine community. We invest in programs to help our leaders to develop the skills to drive our community forward, adopt R&D outcomes and innovate, contribute to a sustainable and profitable sector, and build networks to support future contributions.

Wine Australia periodically brings together alumni from across our leadership and people development programs to provide a platform for collaborative projects and create ongoing opportunities for professional development and networking.
