Defence Industry Leadership Program

2024 Defence Industry Leadership Program 

The Defence Industry Leadership Program (DILP) has played a pivotal role in nurturing the personal and professional growth of more than 300 defence industry leaders since its establishment in 2010.

Within the context of the rapidly evolving Australian defence landscape, the demand for adept, forward-looking, and collaborative leadership is paramount. Such leaders are essential to effectively steer through challenges, welcome innovation, and secure industry's role in both national security and economic prosperity.

With a focus on addressing the workforce development requirements of our aspiring upcoming leaders, the Defence Industry Leadership Program is highly regarded as the flagship leadership program for Australia's defence industry. 

“I’m delighted to be the Ambassador for the Defence Industry Leadership Program,
and I congratulate the Defence Teaming Centre for creating it”. Hon Pat Conroy, Minister for Defence Industry
