Facilitators: Chris Toselli, Michael Sims & Frances Schouten (GlobalNet Academy)
Chris Toselli is the driving force behind GlobalNet Academy with a dynamic career spanning over 25 years in the education and IT sectors. But don’t let the impressive list of qualifications (think Commerce, Law, a Harvard stint, and a whole suite of Management and Training diplomas) fool you – Chris is as down-to-earth as they come and is a hands-on leader passionate about empowering Tasmanians. When he's not innovating in the professional sphere, Chris is a man of many varied talents including a second-degree black belt in Karate (with a mean roundhouse kick apparently), an avid explorer of new roads, armature gardener, and most importantly, a devoted family man and a top tier dog dad. Chris is making a difference, one inspired student, one innovative tech solution, and one happy bark at a time.
Michael Sims is an engaging facilitator who blends storytelling, games, and real-life scenarios into his training to help you not just understand the theory but apply it. During his 15 years at the University of Tasmania, Michael wrangled academics, industry partners, and the occasional rogue spreadsheet – all while keeping things relevant, rigorous, and fun. When it comes to leadership development, Michale uses a toolkit of empathy and best practice, believing that performance and productivity soar when people feel comfortable, supported, and entertained. Michale polished his leadership credentials through the Tasmanian Leaders Program, although his patience and persistence is most evident in the guide dogs that he has helped raise. If you are ready for a training session where learning sticks, this is the course for you.
