GAMAA represents suppliers to the graphic media and printing industries in Australia. One of GAMAA's key objectives is to meet the challenges of the future by growing tomorrow's leaders - and its Leadership Programme is directed at this objective. The Leadership Programme complements the traditional suppliers' role of providing technically-based education, to a higher level, where strategically focussed learning is directed at the development of leaders to help take the industry forward. The Programme is designed to meet the unique demands of this major industry sector, developed after extensive diagnostics both in Australia and overseas. It is aimed at high-potential, middle to senior managers seeking to improve their leadership and management education, currently working within the industries. |

Kelly Bourke, Sales Manager, SOS Print & Media Group. "The personal development and growth obtained through the GAMAA Ledadership Workshops has increased personal value to my employer through being more effective as a leader and coach."

A requirement of the Scholarship is for students to attend two 3-day Workshops. They also enable the exchange of information and the development of research materials specific to the nuances of the industries. Workshops will explore topics such as; building high performing teams, problem solving, coaching, customer knowledge, collaboration and diversity, strategic outlook and branding. |
As well as the practical side of the material, the Workshops are designed to complement your external studies delivered through group activities, role plays and active discussion. The format allows participants to brainstorm, discuss ideas and develop networks with other students who face the same challenges and are involved in different sectors of the industry. There are a limited number of places available at each Workshop for industry professionals who are not undertaking formal studies. |
