Local laws officer completes leadership program
The team at Yarriambiack Shire Council have congratulated shire Local Laws Officer/Ranger Craig Byron on being the latest staff member to complete the Wimmera Southern Mallee Development's Changemakers Program.

awareness training and leadership development activities.
"The Council is dedicated to developing leadership skills within our team, which can then be applied to community roles, ultimately benefiting the Yarriambiack community as a whole," council CEO Tammy Smith said.
“Craig is a highly valued member of our dedicated team here at Yarriambiack Shire Council and we congratulate him on completing this self-development program.
“It's a valuable program to be offered in the Wimmera Southern Mallee."
Around 600 people have graduated from WSM Development’s Changemakers Program since 2002.
