Building Resilience through Failure
This intensive program will explore the topic of “Failure” from individual, group, and organisational levels and then suggest methods to combat the inevitable and normal deterioration.
This is an interactive course: there will be several questionnaires used to explore all three levels of failure, how reliance is built and all participants will be required to read and report on one relevant article pertinent to the topics we cover.
Discussion of Australian individuals and companies that have “gone off the rails” will be generated by the participants.
UniSA Business is the only business school in South Australia accredited by both AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) and the EFMD Quality Improvement System (EQUIS) – the world’s leading accreditation bodies recognising excellence in business and management education. This double accreditation demonstrates achievement of the highest international standards across teaching and learning, research, and stakeholder engagement, as well as a commitment to continuous improvement into the future.
