ANNOUNCEMENT
We are very pleased indeed to advise that Commonwealth Study Conferences
(Australia) Inc., has been recognised in the recently announced Queen’s New
Year Honours, UK.
Richard FE (Dick) Warburton AO, Chairman, was appointed a Lieutenant of the
Royal Victorian Order (LVO) and J Brian Pickett, Chief Executive, was appointed
a Member of the Royal Victorian Order (MVO).
These appointments are viewed as not only a significant form of recognition for both
Dick and Brian but, in addition, they recognise CSC Australia Inc for the staging of
three major conferences in this region over the past eight years (CSC 2003, EPLD
2006 & EPLD 2010). Substantial levels of assistance were also extended by CSC
Australia Inc to India and Malaysia with their hosting of the Tenth Commonwealth
Study Conference in 2007.
These Awards also represent an important form of recognition to the extensive range
of sponsors, speakers and the many hundreds of Alumni and non-Alumni volunteers
who have all made major contributions to extending leadership development
opportunities to some 475 mid-career men and women over this period.
