GAMAA welcomes in the next generation

The GAMAA Leadership Programme is open to middle to senior managers who work in the printing and graphic arts industries, funding their postgraduate studies of choice and aiming to provide them with an opportunity to advance their leadership and business management skills.

Full scholarships were awarded to Graham Trickey from Hannan Print, Matthew Collins from Spicers Paper and Gus Balbontin from Lonely Planet. Two part scholarships have also been awarded to Jane Stokie from McPherson Media Group and Kelly Bourke from SOS Print & Media Group.

The residential workshops developed by GAMAA are unique element to the programme, and are presented by leading academics and business identities. These workshops are also open to the general industry, and are designed by GAMAA to challenge the working practices of participants and to assist them in developing strategies for the future.

The workshop to be held in Melbourne between the 26th and 28th of April is still taking places, while dates for the workshops in Sydney during August are yet to be released.
