The Bicentenary Events Seriesis a commemorative initiative celebrating 200 years of learning, innovation and research. This series features a variety of events aimed at reflecting on the past, honoring key achievements, and inspiring future generations.
Join this final Career Development workshop of the year!
In today’s competitive work environment, getting recognised is critical to career advancement. Expecting that your good work will get noticed and speak for itself rarely works. How can you ensure your contributions are recognised and rewarded?
In this 90-minute workshop, Executive Coach, Andrew Jones will explore two key areas of focus:
Managing Upward: How to position yourself assertively for success with senior leadership, ensuring they are aware of your accomplishments and potential. Winning your boss’s support alone is not enough.
Managing Across: How to strengthen your influence with peers and others, fostering a network of allies who can advocate for you, without feeling like a shameless self-promoter.
Using the “Campaign for Promotion” as a central case study, participants will explore practical techniques to engage key decision-makers and effectively highlight their accomplishments. They will also learn how to build support and foster meaningful relationships across their organisation.
Through breakout group discussions, participants will develop personalised strategies and leave with a concrete action plan to help them establish the foundation for their next promotion.
Invite a friend or colleague to join you at this workshop and discover for themselves the benefits of pursuing a Master’s degree and embracing lifelong learning!
