You are cordially invited to attend a three-day research Progress Review Workshop organized by Guanghua Leadership Institute on May 29-31, 2014. The Guanghua Leadership Institute (GLI), in collaboration with CISCO, is dedicated to cultivating the next generation of effective Chinese state and enterprise leaders. The Institute promotes knowledge creation and dissemination that foster sustainable innovation, leadership and globalization. GLI has funded three rounds of research from 2008 to 2014. In Phase III research, after intensive reviews, we decided to fund 9 proposals in the specific areas such as Business and management in the internet age, Chinese family business firm development and transition, corporate governance of public and private firms in China, and Innovation and creativity in Chinese firm.
During this three-day Workshop, the funded project PIs will present the latest development in their research projects. In addition, we have multiple numbers of accomplished scholars to serve as the international research advisors. Each of them will give 1 hour talk on a topic that would be most useful to the Phase III researchers, and share the expertise beyond giving feedback on the projects.
Please find below the presentation schedule. Please note that this is a FREE event to GSM faculties and students.
Due to limited space, we strongly encourage you to reserve your place in advance by RSVP. Please contact Eve Yan at [email protected] with your full name and job title (faculty or doctoral student, department).
