2013 Executive Education Workshops at

the Asia Pacific Management Centre

The Asia Pacific Management Centre

APMC is the executive education provider within the Griffith Business School. APMC is committed to developing thought leaders and high performing business people working in private and public sector organisations both domestically and internationally. To this end, it has developed an association with the world renowned UC Berkeley Center for Executive Education and works with them to deliver executive education in Australia.

APMC is also responsible for developing new programs and markets for the Griffith Business School and works closely with industry and government to devise customised educational solutions to build capacity or address specific issues within organisations.

The flexible delivery of courses is critically important, and APMC draws upon skills and expertise within the School to develop and deliver online curricula, utilising the very latest digital pedagogies, to provide clients with a high quality, authentic learning experience.

The Asia Pacific Management Centre educational philosophy

Learning design at APMC is guided by three key principles:

Participatory:

Pedagogy is learner centric. Managers are encouraged to be active participants in their learning, in that they will be both consumers and producers of knowledge. In a digital age, information is literally ‘at our fingertips’ and, in an adult learning environment, sharing resources and commenting on one another’s contributions has become an integral feature of effective study. With access to a sophisticated, state-of-the-art delivery platform, discussion forums, team projects, and interactive online sessions are critical components of all learning.

Authentic:

Assessment of learning is grounded in reality. Programs are developed that are outcome driven. In other words, learning lasts beyond any end-of-course test. Whatever managers learn one day they can apply the next. There are no esoteric, overly academic exercises and course participants always get to see the point of what they are doing. To this end, role-play and simulation serve as the bridge between theory and practice. This is a key aspect of learning design and of paramount importance to individual learner motivation and engagement.

Flexible:

Courses are multi-modal in format, catering to different learning styles and different life styles. The beauty of a fully digitised curriculum is that APMC can produce customised learning solutions, tailored to very specific requirements. All options are available to a client with various combinations of online and face-to-face delivery according to their preferences and budget constraints.

APMC can deliver either customised undergraduate or postgraduate programs or shorter executive

education courses. If this approach seems like it might work for you, call John Miles at +61 403 623 152 or email j.miles@griffith.edu.au

The Asia Pacific Management Centre is now moving into its second year of operations, and we are delighted to announce that the quality of the executive education program for 2013 is even better than last year. Dr Peter Wilton will be with us in May and September and will no doubt continue to inspire and impress with his leading edge insights on management strategy. He will be delivering a new workshop this year entitled

Driving Organisational Renewal through Disruptive Innovation that focuses on enabling organisations to become more adept in dealing with the uncertainties that characterise today’s turbulent markets.

Another professor from UC Berkeley, Dr Homa Bahrami, will be visiting APMC for the first time in June. Dr Bahrami will be running two workshops that draw on her leading research work on the subject of ‘super flexibility’. She will also be conducting a session entitled Boot Camp for Experienced Managers that will help managers develop a personalised course of action for bringing their organisation to its full potential. Another new face will be Dr Ian Fenwick who joins us from the Sasin Graduate Institute of Business

Administration of Chulalongkorn University in Thailand. Dr Fenwick has a very strong international profile for his work on how to harness the power of digital media for effective marketing and communications.

The information on the following pages provides you with a brief overview of the scheduled programs together with pricing options for your organisation to consider.

We very much look forward to having you join us for these world class executive education programs.

Welcome

Driving Organisational Renewal through Disruptive Innovation

May 22/23,

Dr Peter Wilton, UC Berkeley

Recent developments in many industries have highlighted a major challenge facing today’s successful organizations: – the ability to anticipate, and prepare for, continuous and potentially discontinuous change!! The underlying strategic rationale of disruptive innovation is to accept that the organization’s future environment is not a random outcome. Rather it is a created outcome; created by managers who have developed, and are able to articulate and gather support for alternative managed futures. The result of systematically managing the disruptive innovation challenge is to refocus the organization from being reactive to being pro-active, from being a follower of environmental forces to being a shaper of market rules. How well prepared is your organisation to cope with today’s radical change? Learn from one of the world’s top strategic planners who ran exceptional workshops in 2012 for APMC.

Who should attend – business owners, senior management, strategic planners, marketing directors.

Boot Camp for Experienced Managers

June 27/28,

Dr Homa Bahrami, UC Berkeley

UC Berkeley’s Boot Camp for Experienced Managers was created to help you take an unbiased view of yourself and the organization that you lead, and develop a personalized course of action for bringing your organization to its full potential. Questions that will be covered include:

What are the most effective ways to keep my team motivated, striving for excellence, and seeking new opportunities to improve the business, every day? How do I develop a successful plan to lead and manage change? How do I create high productivity teams, with an orientation toward results, not just meetings? How do I attract and develop the world-class talent I need—and what really keeps them coming to work every day fully engaged? “My goal for the program is to return you to the office with a set of practical, vetted tools and action plans you can put to use immediately, to bring your colleagues along with you in your pursuit of excellence and growth”.

Who should attend – People who manage teams, managers of managers, Individuals with outstanding careers and leadership roles in a variety of settings.

Superflexibility in Organisations

July 2,

Dr Homa Bahrami, UC Berkeley

Based on 25 years of field research, advisory work, and professional experience in Silicon Valley, Dr Homa Bahrami will present a cross-functional general management toolkit for strategizing, organizing, leading, and ultimately re-inventing knowledge enterprises. “My goal is to give knowledge workers and business leaders a diagnostic toolkit for succeeding in a dynamic world. In essence, super-flexibility is the capacity to change course, transform, evolve, and reinvent—like a chameleon changing its colour. At the same time, super-flexibility is not just about transformation and reinvention; it is also about the capacity to withstand turbulence, to bounce back, and to stay the course, like a camel surviving in desert conditions. In practice, it means engaging in a delicate balancing act: deciding what to keep and how to stay the course on the one hand, and deciding where to make swift and sudden changes in order to address new realities, on the other hand.” see www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3h4BlDEigQ

Who should attend – Human resource directors, business owners, senior management, strategic planners, marketing directors.
