Transitions

What participants said…
“The Transitions Program was a really good opportunity not only to learn new approaches to strategic management but to also take a step back and review my own leadership style and how this can influence organisational strategic initiative. The skills and experiences of fellow participants was of great value and the sharing of information and perspectives greatly increased the learning taken from the course. I would highly recommend this to other aspiring leaders.”
Gareth Spence | Executive Manager, Human Resources & OHS | Autism Association of Western Australia
“I enjoyed the Transitions course. I can’t say what session was most enjoyable, but something was learnt and taken from each presenter during the week. I’ve referred to the information on a number of occasions, and the learning and monitoring tools have been great to pass on to the other management staff in my division, as well as create new instruments for development, monitoring and improvement. “

“The Transitions course was a first for me in that it contained a wealth of immediately useful ideas that I was able to start to employ as soon as I returned to work on the following Monday. The mix of backgrounds of the attendees was also great: both public and private sector managers with different experiences and insights. Highly recommended.”
Associate Professor John Bailey | School Dean Environmental Science | Murdoch University
“The Transitions program was a fresh approach to executive learning. The non-residential program provided excellent speakers to really engage with and challenge participants. It created space to reflect, think and share ideas. It also provided context for different challenges in individual workplaces. Finally I felt extremely well cared for. A considerable investment had been made by the team into understanding us, our roles and our potential. I strongly recommend this program to those seeking senior leadership development.”
Jody Nunn | Senior Manager, Corporate Communications | Lotterywest
“Attending a course with so many diverse companies partaking, it was refreshing to see that the facilitators could communicate and relate all topics to everyone’s needs in the room. Coming from a back ground of 29 years in retail and attending many different courses through that period, it was very noticeable to me the effort, thought and care that were put in by all involved in delivering the course.”
Di Pitcher | General Manager | Betts Kids
“I thought the Transitions Program was outstanding. Having experienced a number of management courses I was very impressed by the obvious planning and thought put into the course's design and content, the capacity of the presenters to engage participants and present material of high relevance to everyone in the room as well as by the design of the course, which meant that the narrative flow of the week was logical, instructive and most importantly, educative.”
Yossi Goldfarb | Senior Analyst, Market Facilitation | Skills Victoria, Department of Innovation, Industry & Regional Development
"Transitions assisted me with framing and seeding of intellectual thought necessary to facilitate growth from both a creative and strategic perspective."
Steven Kavalsky | Senior Development Manager | Mirvac
“I have recently completed the Transitions Program run by Murdoch University’s Executive Education Centre and highly recommend it to anyone shifting from an operational management role to a higher level strategic management role. The quality of the course was outstanding in all aspects, especially the depth and relevance of the material covered and the knowledge and experience of the presenters. Anyone contemplating an MBA or career shift into leadership and senior management should definitely do this course.”
Richard McCulloch | BSc(Hons) MBA
“The five day Transitions course facilitated by Murdoch Executive Education provided an invaluable knowledge and skill base for all those wanting to take the next step in their career. The course was facilitated by lecturers with a strong private sector background who interacted and understood the various backgrounds of the group. The same classes enabled a high level of personal interaction that ensured all participants gained the maximum benefit from the course.”
