Dr Margaret Byrne
We are pleased to offer our followers unique access to a world leader in Cross Cultural Management, Dr Margaret Byrne, Principal UGM Consulting. On Thursday and Friday June 26 and 27 we will be live blogging from her workshop for the Asialink Leaders Program in Sydney.
Margaret has a BA and MA from Oxford, and postgraduate qualifications in adult learning from Bristol. Last year, she completed her PhD, exploring how leadership potential is identified in meetings. Her research explored the different evaluations of women and men’s potential for an executive role. Margaret holds three awards for innovation in learning design. Career highlights include securing $1 million sponsorship for her research, getting three of her films broadcast on SBS and winning a contract with the PRC Government in Beijing. Margaret is known for the way she balances intellectual rigour with a passion for practical outcomes that make a difference to leaders and their organisations. In 2004, Wollongong University appointed her Honorary Advisor on Leadership. Outside of Australia, Margaret has worked and consulted in China, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Singapore, UK, New Zealand, France and Italy, as well as in four Pacific nations. She has a twenty year commitment to issues of diversity, culture and leadership, with her research being highlighted most recently by both BRW and AFR.
