What is the most underrated skill for a good strata manager to have?

Ahead of our annual Law Forum on Monday, we asked some of our expert speakers what skills they thought a good strata manager should have. From conflict resolution and managing all kinds of people, to knowing when to pause and seek legal advice, there is no doubt the job of a strata manager is a complex one.

Good thing we’ve assembled the experts to discuss these skills in more detail. 👏

SCAQ's now-sold-out Law Forum at Brisbane's Marriot Hotel, brings together the leading legal minds to unpack the issues shaping strata and help our members improve their professional skills.

SCAQ is excited to announce that our Longest Lunch event will be featuring a special guest speaker, Darius Boyd!

Powered by SCAQ Partners HumEnergy & Austrata, SCAQ's Longest Lunch is an opportunity for Queensland's strata community to prioritise mental health in our sector during Mental Health Month, while raising funds for the White Cloud Foundation.

A Gold Coast native and former Brisbane Broncos captain, Darius Boyd knows firsthand that success doesn't make anyone immune to mental health challenges.

At 27, Darius sought professional support, beginning a journey that would ultimately shape his work beyond the football field. After becoming Broncos captain at 29 and retiring from the game at 33, he pursued further education in mental health and wellbeing.

Today, Darius uses his lived experience to empower others, promote wellbeing and challenge the stigma surrounding mental health.

Want to hear Darius' story?

If you're a strata manager, complete our Expression of Interest form before Friday 5th September for your chance to win a complimentary ticket to Longest Lunch.

Enjoy a three-course lunch & drinks, live saxophone entertainment and an inspiring conversation with Darius, all while supporting mental health through our charity raffle for the White Cloud Foundation.
