Networking Lunch (Adelaide): The Art of Strategy and Innovation
Registrations for this Networking Lunch are now closed online, if you are interested in attending please email events@ausae.org.au.
The Networking
We invite you to take a couple of hours out of your day to connect with others in the industry to discuss high level topics of real importance, develop new relationships and gain critical information. This is a rare opportunity to network with other CEOs and senior management professionals from charities, associations and other non-profit organisations. Ample opportunity will be given for you to discuss issues and network with others.
The Topic
In a recently released report into the innovation capability of Australia’s not-for-profit sector, 67% of respondents agreed that innovation was central to their organisation’s success. However, just one-third of respondents believed that 'they will be promoted faster for being innovative' and although innovation requires organisations to take risks; the sector is generally quite risk averse.
In an ever-competitive and challenging environment, find out how you can better define your organisational strategy to help foster innovation and challenge the status quo.
