End of Year Celebrations
Wednesday 5 December was the final event for the AIPM SA Chapter in 2018. It was a chance for our members to come together and celebrate the year that was in Project Management.
Guests were provided the opportunity to listen to a presentation from Daniel Redden, Project Director at Renewal SA, talking about his current Project on Lot Fourteen. Daniel’s presentation was then followed by drinks and nibbles, to allow guests to network with friends and colleagues.
How to Foster and Inclusive Workplace
On Wednesday 28 November, over 40 members and guests came together at the Adelaide Pavilion for the Diversity & Inclusion Lunch on ‘How to Foster and Inclusive Workplace’.
Attendees saw firsthand the relevance of promoting cultural diversity into their workplaces and projects, as our panel of speakers shared the experiences and challenges some people face when coming to Australia from varying cultures.
Mijail Alarcon shared his experience of what it means to immigrate to Australia and find work in Project Management, and how his cultural differences impacted his assimilation. While Margaret Oates provided insights from her experience with assisting those from overseas looking for work in Australia.
We would like to thank Saab for supporting the Diversity & Inclusion Community of Practice.
