Hello!

I’m Alana.

I’m passionate about communication, creating change and finding the beauty in everyday moments. I’m a big believer in the power of everyday leadership, I like big debate and even bigger ideas.

I work as the Executive Manager for Youth Services at YMCA of the Northern Territory.

I previously managed YMCA South Australia’s Youth Empowerment programs and served on the Youth Affairs Council of South Australia (YACSA) board for three years.

I’m a graduate of the Governor’s Leadership Foundation program (Leaders Institute of South Australia’s flagship program) which has greatly influenced my strategic thinking and adaptive leadership capabilities.

I write a lot about my experiences, both for my own reflection and to share insights that are (hopefully!) interesting and helpful for others. Read my blog posts here.
