THE STORY
Here's What I Know About You:
You've been in your role for years. You deliver. You care. You show up — for your team, your family, your responsibilities.
But somewhere along the way, you started questioning: "Am I doing enough? Am I saying the right things? Why do others seem to move ahead while I'm still... here?"
You watch colleagues get promoted because they "speak up more" or "have executive presence."
And you wonder: Do I need to change who I am to succeed here?
Last week, I sat in a leadership session where someone said,
"Leaders are born, not made."
I thought about Sarah.
She is a Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Leader. She's an Engineering Lead at a global mining company. Ten years in. Respected. Reliable. And exhausted from carrying more than her role, her team, and her family — all while second-guessing whether she has what it takes for great "leadership material."
Sarah isn't stuck because she's not ready.
She's stuck because she's been playing by rules that were never written for someone like her.
And I'm willing to bet — you feel the same.
The Myth That's Keeping You Stuck: That Leaders are Born, Not Made.
Here's what neuroscience tells us: That's fiction, not fact.
Your Brain Is Not Fixed
Neuroplasticity is your brain's ability to form new neural pathways, adapt, and rewire itself — throughout your entire life.
What does that mean for you?
  • The way you lead today is not permanent
  • The patterns you're stuck in can be interrupted and rewired
  • The skills you think you don't have can be learned, practiced, and integrated
Leadership is not hardwired into your DNA.
It's built through intentional practice, reflection, and growth.
Your history is not your destiny.
You are not stuck in how you lead today.
This Session Is For You If...
You're a leader in a high-pressure industry (engineering, construction, mining, IT, healthcare, legal) and you're tired of "masking" parts of yourself to fit in.
You want to be promoted — but you don't know how to position yourself without feeling like you're 'too much'.
You struggle with having difficult conversations, setting boundaries, or saying no — and it's costing you your energy
You're done with leadership advice that ignores your cultural background, your lived experience, and the real internal pressures you face that you hide from others around you.
You want practical, human-first leadership strategies you can use tomorrow — not theory you'll forget by next week
You're ready to connect with other leaders who get it — because deep inside you know that your mindset is shaped by the 5 people you spend time with
What You'll Learn
In this 90-minute masterclass, you'll discover:
01
The 3-Level Leadership Influence Model
A practical framework to help you move from positional authority to genuine influence
02
Why relying only on your position & title keeps you stuck at Level 1
And the critical shift you need to make to advance
03
How to build connection without people-pleasing
So you can lead with care AND boundaries
04
The art of self-advocacy
How to speak up about your needs, achievements, and career goals without feeling pushy or culturally inappropriate
05
How to have critical conversations
The kind that hold your team accountable while maintaining trust and psychological safety
06
One micro-action you can take tomorrow
To start building your leadership influence immediately
Why This Matters Now
The leaders who rise aren't the ones who work the hardest.
They're the ones who understand that leadership is built on influence, not just effort.
They know how to:
  • Advocate for themselves without apology
  • Build trust through authentic connection
  • Hold their teams accountable with care
  • Lead sustainably — without burning out
Leadership is a skill. And all skill is learnable.
And it starts with one decision: to show up for yourself the way you've been showing up for everyone else.
Plus - Networking & Connection
This isn't just a masterclass. It's a community.
After the facilitation session, we're opening up the room for networking conversations — a chance to connect with fellow leaders who understand the unique challenges of:
Navigating corporate & business environment in Australia as a CALD leader
Leading in industries where the high-pressure is the norm.
Balancing career ambition with cultural and family expectations

Your mindset is influenced by the 5 people you spend time with.
This is your circle.
