    Drawing on over twenty years of working in leadership roles within the field of early intervention and prevention and place-based leadership, experience suggests that the capacities required by leaders can never be reduced to one simple suite of qualities, behaviours, skills or roles.

There needs to be a multi-faceted approach to leadership (Weaver, 2018). Moreover, place-based leadership supporting early intervention and prevention programs of collective action, reside within the entanglement of the lead agency, children, families, communities, practitioners, non-government organisations, government agencies and business, in conjunction with place. The role of a place-based leader is one of ethical engagement that is aware, open and responsive to the leaderful movements of the community in the mobilisation of collective action.
