What happens at Network Now?

There was some exciting changes that took place to Network Now in 2009 and we will be looking to build on these in 2011.

In 2009 Professor Barbara Pocock, Director of the Centre for Work + Life at UniSA and Dr James Cowley, Strategist, Innovator and Trends analyst spoke on the topic of Work/Life Balance during main course.

Throughout the night activities were conducted that focused on encouraging networking amongst attendees.
