The New Creative Leadership

A three-course journey that strengthens your leadership foundations, builds cultures of belonging, and applies creativity to meaningful, real-world impact.
 

What does it mean
to march first?

Creative leaders are not just makers. They are stewards of culture, of organisations, of communities. March First exists to help you understand and practise that stewardship.

Creative leadership is not defined by titles, or experience, but by the courage to listen deeply, the ability to create meaning, and a stewardship that drives impact for future generations.

We centre voices that have long been at the margins; multicultural, gender-diverse, and those with lived experiences that defy the status quo. 

We embrace perspectives, knowledge and wisdom from across the human spectrum. Wisdom that has value and is essential to rethinking the possibilties of what our leadership might be.

March First is a learning space and community building leadership capacity through lived experience, creativity, and a space of belonging that values every story.

A place where leadership exists as a shared journey to redesign systems, challenge the status quo and rattle the cages of convention.

Where everybody has an opportunity to march first. 

Let's change what leadership looks like
Tools for ethical, creative leaders.

We offer leadership learning experiences that centre lived experience, build capacity, and honour cultural integrity.
