A Master Class for Executives engaging with China

Inside the Chinese Mind - Senior Executive Master Class

Empowering executives to lead in the Asian Century is no longer an exotic option for Australian companies.

As Australia’s trade and investment levels increase with the Asia region, executives need to better understand the complexity of Asian countries and cultures towards successful outcomes. Together with UGM Consulting, Asialink and the Asia Society are delighted to offer a second national series of the sell-out executive program ‘Inside the Chinese Mind’.

Combined with “real world” examples, the program gives you practical and immediately applicable tools
and insights.

This one-day Masterclass workshop for Senior Executives who already have experience dealing with China, or Asia more generally will provide practical tools to:

Decode the Chinese way of communicating, relating and behaving
Build a cognitive map to help you navigate the key differences in thinking between China and Australia
Develop a practical action plan that will reduce cultural risk and deliver sustained results

Previous participants noted that:

“This program is a must. You don’t know what you don’t know until you get this exposure to Margaret’s material. 10 out of 10.”
- Grant Gilfillian, CEO, Sydney Ports Corporation

“Must attend!”
- Jack Curtis, International Managing Partner, Freehills

“Excellent introduction to experienced executives looking to be more successful in their dealings with Chinese organisations, teams and stakeholders.”
- Con Brakatselos, Head of Investment Management and Strategy, AMP Capital Investors

“This program is extremely valuable to anyone who wants to go beyond the superficial in developing a rather deep understanding of just what makes the Chinese mind tick. Highly recommended.”
- Mark Lobo, Team Leader, Market Development Asia, Department of Business and Innovation, Victoria.

Presented by Dr Margaret Byrne, Principal Consultant, UGM Consulting.
