SUMMARY:Mind-Switch 1.1 - Women's think tank

DTEND;TZID=Australia/Perth:20060905T193000
DESCRIPTION:What is Mind-Switch?\nMind-Switch is a monthly think tank in wh
 ich a group of 10-15 women of different \nfunctions\, industries and person
 alities come together to brainstorm ideas & \nchallenges. Are you in an ind
 ustry that is saturated with companies offering the \nsame service as you? 
 How do you differentiate yourself? For those on a tight-budget \nlooking to
  rebrand or reposition strategically\, how do you use the resources within 
 \nreach to achieve your goal? Do you have a business model\, idea or new pr
 oject you¡¯\nve been mulling over internally for some time now that you wis
 h run by others? \n\nWhat is the purpose of Mind-Switch? \nMind-Switch a gr
 oup for self-starter women wishing to put real thought behind \nbusiness id
 eas\, issues and challenges. It is hoped that a deeper discussion and \nexc
 hange of ideas will both\, shed more light upon and/or solve problems broug
 ht to \nthe table as well as excite and motivate the individual whom has co
 ntributed these \nissues.  \n\nHow will Mind-Switch work? \nThe moderators 
 of Mind-Switch invite all women to submit issues and challenges that \nthey
  would like to bring to the table one week before the event date. They will
  \nthen pick three or four topics (depending on their complexity) which wil
 l be \nemailed out to attendees five days before the forum. This will give 
 attendees \nenough time to dedicate some quick thinking to the issues prior
  to the meeting. It \nis hoped that attendees will both contribute ideas & 
 challenges for discussion as \nwell as response and opinion for others who 
 have presented issues to the table. \n\nMind-Switch is a part of Women at t
 he Wheel - A Series of Events for \nProfessional Women in Shanghai organise
 d by the British Chamber in conjunction \nwith EPWS\, Expatriate Profession
 al Womens Society. Women at the Wheel has \nthree main focuses that include
  Suited Up - Women in leadership\, a speaker \nevent series highlighting th
 e experiences of women who¡¯ve made it to the top\, \nMind-Switch ¨C Womens
  think tank\, a monthly business forum & The Cleopatra \nClub ¨C Social & n
 etworking dos\, skills and knowledge enhancing social networking \nactiviti
 es. Neither an advocacy group for women drivers nor a group simply for \nwo
 rking women\, Women at the Wheel seeks active\, opinionated professionals w
 ho \nare at or plan to be at\, the top of their careers.

 br /><br />Key note overview:<br />&ldquo\;The Secret Sauce of Life&rdquo\;
 <br />Almost everyone knows that to succeed in life you must:<br /><br />- 
 Design your desired outcome in specific terms as SMART goals<br />- Develop
  a killer strategy to get there<br />- Take massive action<br />- Understan
 d that there&rsquo\;s no failure\, only feedback <br /><br />But wait\, the
 re&rsquo\;s more to it! These are just the raw ingredients that&rsquo\;s pa
 rt of an exotic life skills recipe called the Ultimate Success Formula. <br
  /><br />You certainly want to turn your dreams into reality\, don&rsquo\;t
  you? That&rsquo\;s why you must find out how the missing spices of your be
 lief system\, your personal identity and your core values will turn the raw
  ingredients into the Ultimate Success Formula!<br /><br />EVENT ORGANISER:
 <br />Professional Speakers Association of China (PSA-China)<br /><br />The
  Professional Speakers Association of China is run by professional speakers
  for professional speakers with two fundamental goals:<br /><br />1) To rai
 se standards in professional speaking and assist members in developing thei
 r careers through a program of training\, development and networking opport
 unities.<br /><br />2) To help expand the market for professional speaking 
 and establish it as a recognised professional discipline\, by promoting the
  association and the expertise and professional standards of its members. <
 br /><br />We are an association for professional speakers and aspiring pro
 fessional speakers in China. We provide opportunities for speakers to netwo
 rk\, learn and share with each other\, expanding their experience and exper
 tise. <br /><br />SPEAKER: The Rapping Professor<br />The Rapping Professor
  has noticed that a lot of people say they have absolutely no talent when i
 t comes to singing\, creative writing &amp\; other creative pursuits. They 
 often really admire those who are good at those types of skills\, and may e
 ven feel that their own strengths in computing\, finance etc. are somehow n
 ot quite as impressive.<br />Matthew Bloomfield\, MA in TESL/Linguistics an
 d experienced performer/MC/voice talent\, is launching a unique new enterta
 inment service called The Rapping Professor. He gathers info on a private\,
  corporate or conference event\, and writes it up into a special song or ra
 p just for the occasion. He then records the song and performs it live at t
 he event. Matthew has found that clients are made to feel really special wh
 en they hear their personal or company names mentioned in a song or rap lyr
 ic\, and that it leaves a lasting impression.<br />In this short presentati
 on\, Matthew will first demonstrate what a Rapping Professor performance lo
 oks and sounds like\, and then give audience members a chance to write and 
 perform their own personalized raps! <br /><br />KEY NOTE SPEAKER: Mr Jeff 
 Tan <br />Jeff Tan is the founder and Chief Coach of Explorer3 Life. His pa
 ssion is in helping people lead excellent and fulfilling lives using the to

DESCRIPTION:<pre class="content" style="font-family: arial\,helvetica\,sans
 -serif"><strong>What is Mind-Switch?</strong><br />Mind-Switch is a monthly
  think tank in which a group of 10-15 women of different <br />functions\, 
 industries and personalities come together to brainstorm ideas &amp\; <br /
 >challenges. Are you in an industry that is saturated with companies offeri
 ng the <br />same service as you? How do you differentiate yourself? For th
 ose on a tight-budget <br />looking to rebrand or reposition strategically\
 , how do you use the resources within <br />reach to achieve your goal? Do 
 you have a business model\, idea or new project you&iexcl\;&macr\;<br />ve 
 been mulling over internally for some time now that you wish run by others?
  <br /><br /><strong>What is the purpose of Mind-Switch? </strong><br />Min
 d-Switch a group for self-starter women wishing to put real thought behind 
 <br />business ideas\, issues and challenges. It is hoped that a deeper dis
 cussion and <br />exchange of ideas will both\, shed more light upon and/or
  solve problems brought to <br />the table as well as excite and motivate t
 he individual whom has contributed these <br />issues.  <br /><br /><strong
 >How will Mind-Switch work? </strong><br />The moderators of Mind-Switch in
 vite all women to submit issues and challenges that <br />they would like t
 o bring to the table one week before the event date. They will <br />then p
 ick three or four topics (depending on their complexity) which will be <br 
 />emailed out to attendees five days before the forum. This will give atten
 dees <br />enough time to dedicate some quick thinking to the issues prior 
 to the meeting. It <br />is hoped that attendees will both contribute ideas
  &amp\; challenges for discussion as <br />well as response and opinion for
  others who have presented issues to the table. <br /><br /><strong>Mind-Sw
 itch is a part of Women at the Wheel - A Series of Events for <br />Profess
 ional Women in Shanghai organised by the British Chamber in conjunction <br

SUMMARY:Modernism in China-Conversations between East and West
X-TH-EID:595
SEQUENCE:1
DTSTART;TZID=Australia/Perth:20071108T180000
DTEND;TZID=Australia/Perth:20071108T190000
DESCRIPTION:<p align="center"><strong><em>Guest Speaker: Edward Denison</em
 ></strong></p> <br /> <p>China''s recent development and speculation about 
 its future impact on the world are stimulating considerable debates in desi
 gn-related disciplines internationally. However\, much of this discourse te
 nds to focus on either pre-twentieth century themes (e.g. China''s ancient 
 sites and cultural relics) or China''s rapid contemporary development. Less
  consideration is given to the period linking these two phases-a period def
 ined by modernisation that witnessed for the first time the synthesis of tw
 o formally disparate cultures\, simplified albeit inaptly as East and West.
  </p> <br /> <p>A book celebrating this critical and influential period tha
 t climaxed with Modernism is to be published in the summer of 2008\, writte
 n by Edward Denison and Guang Yu Ren and published by John Wiley &amp\; Son
 s (authors and publisher of Building Shanghai-The Story of China''s Gateway
 ).&nbsp\; The book will\, for the first time\, expose to an international a
 udience China''s role in and experience of Modernism and will examine the a
 rchitects and planners\, designers and engineers\, builders and craftsmen\,
  and artists and writers\, who introduced or embraced Modernism throughout 
 China\, and how the distinctive principles and styles of this movement were
  assimilated to create various interpretations of Modernism unique to China

DESCRIPTION:<strong>&quot\;Work together! Efficient business processes in s
 mall and medium sized enterprises (SME)&quot\;</strong> <br /> <br />Your o
 ffice in China has special requirements in regard to the business process: 
 Your documents are in different languages\, the head-quarter is far away (w
 ith a significant time-shift)\, you are often on business trips... <br />Th
 e common problems of business processes can be classified in &quot\;4 C&quo
 t\;:  <br /><ul><li>Communication (e-mail\, forum\, messenger\, news...)</l
 i><li>Coordination (calender\, project management\, task manager...) </li><
 li>Cooperation (addressbook\, bookmarks\, polls...) </li><li>Content (docum
 ents\, website\, knowledge management...) </li></ul> <br />Typically only t
 he first part &quot\;communication&quot\; is well supported by e-mail softw
 are such as MS Outlook. For the other parts usually no suitable software is
  used. So everybody is using e-mail... <br /><ul><li>... for organising an 
 event</li><li>... for sharing contacts</li><li>... for distributing documen
 ts...</li></ul> <br />This is laborious\, slow\, error-prone\, intransparen
 t and guarantees an everlasting overflowing e-mail account! <br />In this w
 orkshop we will show how you can improve these business processes in your o
 ffice: <br /><ul><li>Organise your events with a shared calendar: see who i
 s available and make the process transparent for all participants\; </li><l
 i>share your business contacts: the central addressbook is always up-to-dat
 e and the maintenance is reduced to this addressbook\; </li><li>put your do
 cuments in a DMS with access control and version control </li><li>and commu
 nicate by e-mail </li></ul> <br /> <br /><strong>Speakers</strong> <br /><u

 ecessary requirement for companies <br />anywhere in the world. Some people
  say China is the most challenging and difficult <br />country in the world

 resent three speakers in a panel format\, each with more than a decade spen

 their views of <br />what works and what doesn''t\, and to share insights i
 nto how Government relationship <br />work is changing. They bring experien
 ce in multiple industries in both services and <br />manufacturing\, in M&a
 mp\;A\, in projects\, in securing licenses\, in putting together <br />Gove

DESCRIPTION:China gilt als Herausforderung: Gibt es eine optimale Strategie
  bei Lokalisierung und Vertrieb f&uuml\;r den chinesischen Markt? Wie geht 
 man auf Partner\, Kunden und Mitarbeiter ein\, und wie gestaltet man die Be

  Buch berichten erfahrene deutsche Manager von ihren unternehmerischen und 
 pers&ouml\;nlichen Erfahrungen und Erfolgen in China. <br /> <br />Der Chin

 eren. 24 Unternehmer und Manager erz&auml\;hlen selbst von den H&uuml\;rden
 \, die es zu meistern\, Strategien\, die es zu entwickeln und L&ouml\;sunge

DESCRIPTION:<strong>Die deutsche EU-Ratspr&auml\;sidentschaft - <br />Schwe
 rpunkte und Herausforderungen</strong> <br /> <br />Ist der Prozess der Eur
 op&auml\;ischen Integration mit den Ablehnungen des europ&auml\;ischen Verf
 assungsvertrages in den Niederlanden und in Frankreich ins Stocken geraten?
  Kann er jetzt &ndash\; nach einer Phase der Reflexion im ersten Halbjahr 2
 007 wieder neu angesto&szlig\;en werden? Dies hat sich die deutsche EU-Rats
 pr&auml\;sidentschaft zum Ziel gesetzt. <br /> <br />Um welche Fragen geht 
 es bei diesem politischen Prozess? Warum ist es so wichtig\, eine neue Dyna
 mik auf die europ&auml\;ische Ebene zu bringen? Sind die gemeinsamen Werte 
 der Europ&auml\;ischen Union umstritten oder geht es um die Verbesserung de
 r Handlungsf&auml\;higkeit nach Innen und Au&szlig\;en? Wie sehen die B&uum
 l\;rgerinnen und B&uuml\;rger die Europ&auml\;ische Union im Zeitalter der 
 Globalisierung? Was erwarten sie von der EU zur Sicherung von Energie und K
 limaschutz? Wie steht es mit einer Politik zur Bew&auml\;ltigung der irregu
 l&auml\;ren Migration nach Europa und zur wirksamen Bek&auml\;mpfung des in
 ternationalen Terrorismus? Alle diese Fragen m&uuml\;ssen heute von den eur
 op&auml\;ischen Mitgliedsstaaten gemeinsam beantwortet werden\, wenn Europa
  seine Rolle auf globaler Ebene wirksam ausf&uuml\;llen will. <br /> <br />
