The brand new 2019 AmCham Academy consists of a series of 12 events throughout 2019. Each month rising stars of South Australia will gather for a learning and networking opportunity.
The aim of the Academy is to provide talented up and coming executives with relevant and engaging seminars on career development best practices, peer-to-peer networking, and dialogue with senior executives from industry leading companies. The AmCham Academy will help tomorrow’s leaders develop the skills, knowledge, and connections needed to be global pacesetters in the modern business world. The Opening Ceremony on Thursday 7 February will be at Parliament House and hosted by Hon David Ridgway MLC, Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment.
Once per month from February to November, the Academy will meet for a before-work breakfast session at the centrally located offices of DW Fox Tucker Lawyers in King William Street. At the end of the year, a Closing Ceremony will be held. A Certificate of Completion will be presented to participants who have attended seven or more seminars. The topics will include a mix of themes such as agility, productivity, brand, communication and media, corporate relationships, leadership, remaining relevant, and behavioural ethics. Senior Executives of leading companies will also present and lead discussions.
Not only will participants learn and develop, they will form a cohort of SA's future leaders, and learn from each other.
Spaces are limited - register your future leaders today. Support your rising stars and assist them to reach their potential while they develop a network that will help them to learn and grow and develop as employees who will enrich your organisation for years to come.
