Join AIM for a breakfast with federal Liberal parliamentarian and former Treasurer, Peter Costello following the release of his much anticipated book, The Costello Memoirs.

What were the backroom deals that made the GST possible? What were the critical obstacles that Costello, as Treasurer overcame to build the strength of the Australian economy to the point where it was able to withstand the financial meltdown of the late 1990s? |

Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer ‘The hard facts and dangerous half-truths of management’
|
18/11/08
|
[International Speakers]
Popular adages like, “the best organisations have the best talent,” and, “financial incentives drive company performance,” drive business decisions every day. Yet too much common management “wisdom” isn’t wise at all. Instead, unsubstantiated knowledge based on “best practices” such as these, can actually prove to be poor, incomplete, or outright obsolete. Worse, legions of managers use this dubious knowledge to make decisions that are hazardous to organisational health. Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer, from the Stanford Graduate School of Business, will illustrate how your organisation’s managers can make better decisions if those decisions are based on evidence of what works elsewhere, as well as within your own organisation. |
