Associate ProfessorToby Newstead

Dr Newstead's teaching develops the leadership capabilities that Tasmanian organisations and communities need to navigate complex transitions across productivity, health, education, and beyond. She coordinates the Graduate Certificate in Leadership and Organisational Capability - recognised for teaching excellence - and delivers industry-relevant short courses including Effective Leadership and Change Management.

Her teaching is research-informed and centres ethics, inclusion, and place-based approaches to leadership development. She creates conditions for transformation by connecting students to their potential, to each other, and to new ways of thinking - thereby developing graduate capabilities including systems thinking, adaptive excellence, change agency, and relational influence...precisely the capabilities required to lead effectively through the organisational and societal transitions shaping our future.
