Some brands Ros has worked with

Developing your leadership voice

To build trust and connection with stakeholders in today’s dynamic, complex and ever-changing world, government leaders need to be able to communicate with impact, especially in high-stakes situations, such as when:

  • leading change
  • motivating teams
  • giving a media interview
  • advocating for resources
  • seeking support for an idea
  • running a stakeholder meeting, or
  • delivering a speech or presentation.

Many leaders, however, struggle to get their message across, often lacking confidence and/or the skills needed to make the impact they desire. This is where Ros Weadman can help. For more than four decades, she’s helped government leaders to craft and deliver their message with clarity, confidence and credibility. She also helps them build a strong personal brand and authority positioning in their field. Could you be next?


Building your personal brand

A strong personal brand helps government leaders clearly communicate who they are, what they stand for and where they’re heading. It also helps them amplify their leadership voice, expand their influence and elevate their worth.

Ros’s INNER BRILLIANCE Personal Branding™ System has four key dimensions to help you achieve these outcomes.

  • Purpose

    Your ‘why’ that drives you to make a difference

  • Positioning

    Your differentiating qualities that set you apart

  • Proflie

    Your presence and visibility in the marketplace

  • Profitability

    Your ability to commercialise your professional positioning

    I have participated in a number of development programs with Ros over several years, including a comprehensive 10-week mentoring and strategic communications alignment course, where she guided us through the development of an extremely valuable team document.

    Along the journey, the passion and expertise shown by Ros was second to none and it resulted in achieving all outcomes we wanted for our department, including building confidence in each team member’s purpose within our organisation.

    I’d highly recommend anyone leading a team of communications professionals to engage in this mentoring service.

    Ros’s signature approach made us all think laterally and deeply, identifying missed marketing opportunities, and clearly defined novel approaches to take advantage of those avenues. I’d recommend this workshop to every micro to medium business owner who’s frustrated with their marketing results and wants to have clear plan of action.

    The Melbourne Seafood Centre first engaged Ros Weadman in 2011. At the time, we required a company with specialist skills to help us liaise with the state government on a significant but delicate matter. Ros came in, assessed our situation and advised us on the best way to move forward. She understood our business, what we wanted to achieve and we got the best results. Since then we have used her a number of times and each time the service has been excellent with positive outcomes.

    I found the overall experience really valuable. In a deadline driven, reactive team its easy to just churn and burn. To sit and think about why we do what we do and the value we bring to the organisation really adds meaning to the job. After doing the workshop I feel really proud of the work I do, but also really motivated for what’s to come.

    The sessions we did with Ros were invaluable. They gave us space to think more holistically and strategically away from the often reactive nature of the day-to-day. Ros has a brilliant ability to empower you to broaden your thinking, to push you to think two or three steps above the issue you think you have, to then see the higher-level solution. My colleague and I often reflect on our sessions with Ros and the way our thinking has evolved as a result.

    Working with Ros was like a breath of fresh air into my business. Although I was not 100% sure at the beginning of where it would lead or what was expected. The outcome was business changing. I reconnected deeply with my WHY, I am now able to see my business from a new perspective with a vision of where I want it to go. It also provided a platform for enhancing my website, my promotional material and best of all an alignment throughout.
