The first theme of 2021 'Knowing Yourself and Others as a Leader' has now concluded. The Cove team thanks all those who contributed articles and those who either organised or participated in the Brisbane Cove Conference.

In this article you will find all the resources used to support this theme. As a reminder, The Cove are engaging in specific themes in a condensed period of time as this will allow for a breadth and depth of perspectives on a single topic to be presented at once. Ultimately, this may lead to better connection and appreciation of shared ideas and space for dialogue on a single theme.

In this episode of Cove Thoughts, we are joined by Dr Emily Bienvenue from DST, Dr Zac Rogers from Flinders University, Clint Watts from the Foreign Policy Research Institute, MAJGEN Marcus Thompson from Information Warfare Division and Siobhan Heanue from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation to talk about cognitive warfare, online manipulation and measures we can take to protect ourselves, our families and the Army from online threats.

As the years pass, and our veterans get older, there are fewer opportunities to hear their stories first hand. In this episode of Cove Thoughts, produced especially to commemorate the 2020 Vietnam Veterans' Day, we talk to David Sabben about his experiences as a platoon commander at the Battle of Long Tan.

Tom is the founder of Tomorrow Architects; a consulting firm specialising in behavioural change, leadership development and organisational transformation. He has been invited to conduct leadership interventions, workshops and training with PwC, IKEA, NAB, Telstra, Red Bull, Channel 10, Melbourne Football Club and many more.

His focus is building rapid social capital, breakthrough leadership and team performance, emotional agility, enhanced culture, and resilience to name a few.

On this episode of the Australian Army Leadership Program podcast series, LTCOL Sam Padman is joined by his first non-uniformed guest, Dr. Jemma King, to discuss the need for leaders to be emotionally intelligent (EI).

Dr. Jemma King is the founder of BioPsychAnalytics; a company specialising in advanced human performance optimisation. Dr. King has been a consultant to Defence, the AIS, the Olympic swim team and is a research fellow at UQ and a lecturer to Sydney Uni's MBA program.

Their discussion focusses on EI leaders and their ability to understand themselves and the needs and wants of their people with this concept having its roots as far back as the cave man.
