Details

In 2016 Wesfarmers Managing Director, Richard Goyder AO, was unable to speak at a scheduled Dean’s Leaders Forum. We have confirmed a new date and have invited ticket holders from the previous event to confirm their attendance. As a result, Lecture Theatre 1 is at capacity, however we invite you to participate in the event via a live stream to be shown in ‘Cohen Theatre’. You will have the ability to ask questions of Mr Goyder during the Q+A as well as an opportunity to meet him during registration and a sausage sizzle from 6pm. To book a place in the ‘Cohen Theatre’, please register via My.MBS.
