We are passionate about equipping young people with the skills, knowledge and practice they need to be effective leaders.
Through our Future Leaders Network Academy, we offer youth-focussed, contemporary and interactive leadership training for young people.
We transform often dry, academic subjects into moments and messages that matter for young leaders as they are forging their own path.
We offer our training directly to young people through fantastic, grassroots events such as our Spring Gathering, Summer Retreat and our Annual Conference.
Whatever event you choose, you’ll know you’re in great hands - as FLN has delivered its training to young diplomats; to local and national governments; and to young leaders at major corporate clients.
“Leadership isn’t something which just happens magically with age, like wisdom teeth! Leadership can be taught, and we have established our academy to do just this.
Sophie Daud, CEO Future Leaders Network”
Some examples of previous trainings
As a leader, visionary or someone who wants to create change you'll need to influence others - to join your cause, to take action in pursuit of your goal, or to adopt your position.
But if you’re the youngest person in the room, this can sometimes feel intimidating and overwhelming.
We want to change that. In this Future Leaders Network Academy Module on Communicating with Confidence, you'll hear from a leading communications expert on what’s needed to be a credible, impactful young leader.
You’ll cover how to manage confidence when speaking, developing your signature talk, and how to get booked and raise your profile.
