IMPACT

Mordialloc Freeway Joint Venture

The Integrated Approach to Wellness, an industry-first leadership and culture program for the construction industry, and made possible through funding from WorkSafe Victoria's WorkWell Mental Health Improvement Fund. The program aimed to address the high levels of depression, anxiety, and stress experienced by Victorian construction workers, fostering industry-wide cultural change. Led by a consortium consisting of Lysander, Mordialloc Freeway Joint Venture, and Swinburne University. Explore this groundbreaking initiative that prioritises leadership and culture in the construction industry.

Women In Construction Scholarship

Lysander proudly funded 16 remarkable women from diverse construction roles and companies, empowering them to excel in the traditionally male-dominated construction industry. With only 12% of women in the workforce, this program equips participants with essential skills such as constructive conflict resolution, coaching conversations, and strategies to build leadership presence and influence while maintaining authenticity and a sense of the female self. Take a glimpse into Day 1 of the scholarship program and witness the journey.
