"I think there will continue to be times when I recall something I learnt on the program and try and consider or apply that in my life. It has particularly helped me focus on my goals and aspirations and in doing so to make some clear steps towards achieving them. I am now actively pursuing SES opportunities in the Public Service and continuing my study to complete a PhD." – Michelle Deshong
