2.5 day Leadership Retreat

Noosa

August 2023

Participant Feedback

I recently had the privilege of attending the Women in Leadership Retreat, expertly facilitated by Sally Foley-Lewis. I am so grateful to Louvreclad for recognising me as a leader, a label I’ve often hesitated to claim for myself.. Under the guidance of the amazing Sally Foley-Lewis, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and inclusivity, creating a sanctuary for open dialogue, mutual learning, and personal growth.

I feel truly inspired by the wisdom and deep sense of leadership in the room. Real conversations with an amazing group of women from diverse industries, enterprises, and backgrounds, allowed me to realise that, perhaps, I do belong in this realm of ‘Leadership’.In the hustle and bustle of daily life, the opportunity to pause and introspect is rare. Set against the majestic backdrop of the Noosa coastline, these three days gave me permission to detach from everyday life, allowing me to focus on my personal and professional values and to contemplate the impact I can make in my current role.

I am eager to draw on this kete of knowledge and put these new skills to work!

Te manu kai Miro, nōna te ngahere; te manu kai mātauranga, nōna tea o.“The bird that eats the miro berries, theirs is the forest; the bird that consumes knowledge, the world is theirs.”
Uddhava Sharplin, Design Consultant at Louvreclad

Participant Feedback

The content was personalised, extremely well informed. It is evident that Sally has learned experience in leadership. Her delivery of the content was articulate and impactful. I also felt the design of the event led to authentic participation and camaraderie. I will value it for a long time.

Participant Feedback

Sally was an outstanding facilitator and strikes a good balance of content, conversations and activities.

Participant Feedback

A retreat with impact. I left invigorated and reconnected to my vision for myself and my work. It is a privilege to learn from the wisdom of a great facilitator and the shared experience of a collective of inspiring women leaders.

This week, I joined the Transcend & Thrive Leadership Development Program as part of Gulf Coca-Cola Beverages (GCCB)’s Growth Festival this August. Through this program, I had the privilege to connect with fellow leaders and gain invaluable and transformative insights about self-awareness, vulnerability, empathy, and embracing change.

I also want to thank and commend Sally Foley-Lewis for her infectious enthusiasm and expertise to energize the crowd, challenge our norms, and offer us fresh perspectives to elevate our leadership capabilities.

I liked it that the Muster had the option to be free. It is really great to know that there are companies who organize activities like this to really help people develop knowledge and skills that could be applied at work. I especially liked the topics on Intrapreneurialism, Self-Leadership, and Coaching. I would recommend the Muster to people who want to learn important information in a quicker way.

Michelle Justiniano, Management Analyst, York County

Participant Feedback

The types of sessions were clearly delineated and provided a great view of what was to come and what to prepare for. I did enjoy those sessions I was able to attend. Everyone was extraordinary – they provided great information and wonderful insights on the topics discussed. Speaking of which, there were quite a diverse number of topics available – wish I could have seen them all! I actually did recommend the Muster to my Supervisor, but the timing was not good for her. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants more information on how to be an outstanding leader.

You, [Sally] as Facilitator, did a fantastic job keeping the discussions moving along and providing entertainment when giving away the prizes! Kudos to you for an outstanding Muster!

Kate Torkington People and Culture Manager Sugar Research Australia

Participant Feedback

The Middle Management Muster is unlike anything else online or F2F for middle managers – relevant topics and engaging presenters who really know their stuff. Whilst there’s a lot of value to be had in attending all the sessions in real time the flexible format makes this Muster super accessible. Highly recommend.

ASAPS - Practice Managers Conference

Engaging Your Team and Delegating to Get Things Done

Keynote Presentation

Online - Australasia

October 2021

Client Feedback

Sally Foley-Lewis recently presented as a virtual speaker for the 2021 ASAPS Annual Conference – a virtual conference attended by over a hundred Plastic Surgeons and their practice staff around Australasia. TPHE organised the event on behalf of ASAPS and it was an absolute pleasure having Sally on board for the event as a presenter.Sally presented on the topic “Engaging Your team and Delegating to get things done” – her session was well attended and saw a high level of virtual delegate interaction. In post-event feedback delegates noted her presentation as one of the most useful and informative within the conference.

She is a great presenter and we hope to welcome her to another one of our events in the future.

Audience Feedback

Great talk on the ASAPS conference. I am definitely doing it myself far too much as CEO at Adelaide Plastic Surgery. I know I mainly do this because I think it’s quicker. I know I need to change this. 

Kirsten

Audience Feedback

I enjoyed your presentation as ASAPS – lots to learn there. “slow is fast’ has definitely resonated with me as you made me think about my delegating style. Thank you for that.

Participant Feedback

The opportunity to take time out and work on becoming the best leader I can be was one of the best day programs I’ve done. I can now critically analyse myself positively and constructively , and also I now understand the importance of self-leadership. this day program gave me the tools and techniques so I can build my confidence as a female leader. 

Fiona Manson, Manager – Procurement & Supply, Mining & Metals Industry

Participant Feedback

Enriched, enlightened and focused. The leadership retreat organised and facilitated by Sally provided a holistic approach to self leadership for women. With the backdrop of Camp Mountain participating in yoga, leadership activities and ending with a mindfulness walk I finished the day relaxed and energised to continue my leadership journey.

Audience Feedback

Absolutely loved this session – always do! Sally has a knack for sharing the right pieces of knowledge and experiences for me at just the right time. The idea of values, voice and visibility has become the structure in which I’ve now reorganised my notes under.

Laughed out loud hearing about how she listens to audiobooks while mowing the lawns knowing that I was listening to her session whilst driving to the Bach. Kids in the backseat are practicing their study skills taking my notes.

Audience Feedback

The bit about being the cause of our own suffering… that is a bit of a hard truth bomb but so timely! Yes to owning our own stuff.  

Loved the oxygen mask… pleased no airplanes were harmed in the process! Thanks for the wisdom.
