    YOUR HIDDEN ADVANTAGE: HOW TO BECOME IMMENSELY VALUABLE THROUGH ADVOCACY


    Workshop #1 In-Person | Melbourne | 19 March 2025

    3:00 PM - 4:30 PM AEDT


    Workshop #2: Online - Wednesday, 7 May 2025

    Workshop #3: Online - Wednesday, 20 August 2025


    * * FREE PROGRAM FOR ALUMNI MEMBERS; OPEN TO ALL FEI MEMBERS * * 


    In a world defined by speed and scale, relationships—and advocacy—are both a blind spot and a

    transformative opportunity for individuals and businesses.  


    Do you know:

    Who is important to your or your organisation's success, and why they matter?

    What matters to them?

    How to stay relevant and top of mind?


    WE SPEND A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT TIME EQUIPPING OURSELVES TO ANSWER "WHAT DO I KNOW THAT COULD HELP?" WHEN IT COMES TO PROBLEM-SOLVING.


    WHAT IF WE COULD ADD THE SAME (OR MORE) VALUE TO OUR ORGANISATIONS BY ASKING "WHO DO I KNOW WHO MIGHT HELP?" WHEN FACED WITH A PROBLEM.  ISN'T THAT WORTH INVESTING IN? 


    This three-module program will equip you with the know-how and confidence to efficiently and effectively build and systematically maintain meaningful connections that add-value to you and the people around you.  Kwan's high-thought, low touch framework empowers you to build trust and influence with purpose. 


    Join Jon Burgess, advocacy expert and founder of international management consultancy Kwan, to learn:

    * Foundational behaviours that foster genuine connection and cohesive teamwork

    * How to design a professional network based on mutual consideration and understanding

    * How to foster cohesion and alignment among customers, employees and stakeholders, and create systems of collaboration

    * How to use advocacy to empower teams and build loyalty, trust and impact

    * How to embed advocacy into your or your organisation's operating rhythm -- to achieve the advantages at scale


    Connected individuals and collaborative teams inspire confidence, drive engagement,

    and cultivate a culture of cohesion - take advantage of FEI's partnership with Kwan to participate in this unique program that has been presented at Harvard Business School.

          * innovative delivery models

          * scarce talent

          * technology and data

          to future-proof your organisation.

          Invite your HR Partner along (free, on your ticket) to discuss the latest research on managing finance teams through change.
