Capability Frameworks - Too Slow for a Fast Moving WorldLearningCafe
Capability Frameworks have been used in organisations to neatly depict the progression of skill levels. In many organisations the level you attain also links to pay and rewards. While Capability Frameworks worked well in the past when changes were less frequent, they may not be flexible enough to accommodate rapid business and workplace changes now.

So where does Australian organisational learning stand on the world stage. Are we aspiring for excellence or just cruising? Is the tall poppy syndrome at work? The Australian academic sector (Universities and Schools) has a structured and focused approach to defining what excellence in learning means and how to achieve it. This approach seems to be missing in organisational and corporate learning. Maybe we are running so fast that we may never stop to improve our running technique. We talk to an experienced panel that architect and manage Learning in their organisations to deliver business results. We will ask what Learning excellence means to them and how they plan to get there

DiB QLD 8 Mar Damien Mander Presentation with PhotosBlake Barrett CSC
Damien has lived an extraordinary life for a 37 year old. At 19, as a garbage collector in Melbourne he joined the Australian Defence Force, graduating through one of the most arduous courses as a RAN clearance diver. With the ADF’s counterterrorism restructure following 9-11, Damien joined the elite TAG-East force, training as a sniper. Later as a private contractor he deployed to Iraq where he project managed the Iraq Special Police Training Academy overseeing training and deployment of local troops. After three years in Iraq, he left the front lines with no direction in life.
A trip to Africa in 2009 awakened him to the horrors the natural world is facing from poaching. Recognizing the unique skills he possessed by virtue of his training and experience in military roles, Damien liquidated his savings, and founded the International Anti-Poaching Foundation (IAPF).
Now a multinational not-for-profit, the IAPF runs operations on the front lines of the world wildlife wars, protecting iconic endangered species from slaughter by poachers. Using battle-proven tactics, training and technology in what is effectively a counterinsurgency operation the IAPF has recently demonstrated striking success in Mozambique. Operating in the most critical area on earth for rhino protection, losses have been reduced by over 80%.
Damien talked about his journey and IAPF’s model, operating in areas which represent high environmental value and where application of the organization’s unique capabilities can produce an effective and enduring local solution.

20 Aug 15 DiB Steve Baxter and Andrew O'connor at Crowe Horwath (post event ...Blake Barrett CSC
What does it take to be a successful entrepreneur or business owner? Should you work for a company, or start your own business?
To help answer these questions and more, 80 people came to our Qld event on 20 Aug to meet and hear from two ex-defence entrepreneurs and business owners.
Steve Baxter is one of Australia’s most successful tech entrepreneurs, investor, and ‘Shark’ on Shark Tank Australia. Steve spent 9 years in the Army as an apprentice and technician, before putting his life savings on the line to launch his first start-up, a pioneering internet service provider, from the spare room of his Adelaide home. He later co-founded PIPE Networks, which listed on the ASX in 2005 with an initial capitalisation of $14 million, and sold to TPG Telecom for $373 million in 2009. Three years ago, Steve launched River City Labs in Brisbane, a leading co-working community to encourage entrepreneurs in Queensland.
Andrew O’Connor left Defence after 14 years as an Army engineer to complete his PhD and to pursue business ownership. Andrew co-founded Relken Engineering to assist clients in improving the performance of their assets and reduce total cost of ownership. With clients such as NSW Water, KPMG, BHP, Glencore and Northup Grumman, Relken has grown to 10 employees and generated over $2 million turn over in its first year.
This was a unique opportunity to bring your colleagues and mates. No Defence background is required, all business people are welcome.
