ACELQ is proud to launch the inaugural Pivotal People Middle Leaders Conference. A conference designed by middle leaders for middle leaders. Out theme is Pivotal People: Opportunities to Connect Learn and Thrive. The conference will provide middle leaders the opportunity to connect with other leaders from across sectors, learn from each other and spend time nurturing their leadership wellbeing so they can thrive.

We are inspired to create this conference for middle leaders to engage in stimulating conversations about the unique challenges of middle leadership in education.

Why should you attend

You should attend this conference if you want to connect and meet other middle leaders from all sectors of education, learn to develop your leadership practices and share stories about the challenges of middle leadership with others so you can thrive.

This is a conference designed to give every middle leader the opportunity to be a great middle leader.
