Welcome Note
the best when you combine the energy of youth and the wisdom of experience. In the
eight years BOSS has run the Young Executives of the Year awards, we've discovered
how true that is. We've been struck by the energy and vigour in the room at BOSS
forums when we bring together aspiring future leaders and those at the top today
so they can share their knowledge.
The Emerging Leaders program provides a structured schedule of regular events,
providing members with the opportunity to determine the topics you want to talk about
and a platform through which to have their say on management issues and themes faced
in career development.
At our next forum on Wednesday November 7 at the Establishment Hotel in Sydney,
Cliff Rosenberg, LinkedIn Australia Managing Director discusses the importance of
managing your professional brand.
Establishment Hotel | 5 Bridge Lane | Sydney | Wednesday November 7, 2012 | 6.30pm

Founding Mentors
The world today is far more connected and fast changing than ever. Leadership and innovation can come from anyone, anywhere but it's up to the people who lead people in the work place to create the environment where this can happen. Today and in the future we will need a new mindset of leadership which recognises that the potential of people at work is greater than ever, if they are inspired, supported and aligned with a strong common purpose. The emerging leaders program will help to encourage and develop the leaders of the future.

A word from our sponsor
At the University of Sydney Business School, we understand the role that emerging leaders will play throughout Australian industry in the coming years. The world of business is changing rapidly. As a result, leadership ability is now, more than ever, a critical element of career success.
We believe that leadership will come from new breed of executive; people who are capable of reconciling opportunity with responsibility, and who can balance their own personal ambitions with those of their team.
Leadership is a core element of our new MBA program, and is central to the Business School's broader mission of equipping emerging leaders with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed.
That is why the Business School is proud to partner with Financial Review BOSS to present the Emerging Leaders Program.
The program combines the opportunity to strengthen your business network with the potential for mentoring from some of Australia's best business minds, and represents a significant step forward in the recognition and fostering of new business talent.
I encourage you to explore the benefits of the Emerging Leaders Program, and my colleagues and I look forward to meeting you at the events planned for the future.
