Completing my Master’s of Political Management gave me the opportunity to explore different angles of government and new ways of communicating with and within government. It helped me hone the skills that I use every day, and allowed me to connect with different viewpoints. It is very special being in a room full of people who want to debate the issues as much as you do.
