Mind-Switch is a monthly think tank in which a group of 10-15 women of dif ferent
functions\, industries and personalities come together to brai nstorm ideas &\;
challenges. Are you in an industry that is satura ted with companies offering the
same service as you? How do you diffe rentiate yourself? For those on a tight-budget
looking to rebrand or reposition strategically\, how do you use the resources within
reach to achieve your goal? Do you have a business model\, idea or new project yo u¡\;¯\;
ve been mulling over internally for some time now tha t you wish run by others?
What is the purpose of Mind-S witch?
Mind-Switch a group for self-starter women wishing to put real thought behind
business ideas\, issues and challenges. It i s hoped that a deeper discussion and
exchange of ideas will both\, sh ed more light upon and/or solve problems brought to
the table as well as excite and motivate the individual whom has contributed these
iss ues.
How will Mind-Switch work?
The mod erators of Mind-Switch invite all women to submit issues and challenges tha t
they would like to bring to the table one week before the event dat e. They will
then pick three or four topics (depending on their compl exity) which will be
emailed out to attendees five days before the fo rum. This will give attendees
enough time to dedicate some quick thin king to the issues prior to the meeting. It
is hoped that attendees w ill both contribute ideas &\; challenges for discussion as
well as response and opinion for others who have presented issues to the table.
Mind-Switch is a part of Women at the Wheel - A Series of Events for
Professional Women in Shanghai organised by the British C hamber in conjunction
with EPWS\, Expatriate Professional Womens Soci ety. Women at the Wheel has
three main focuses that include Suited Up - Women in leadership\, a speaker
event series highlighting the expe riences of women who¡\;¯\;ve made it to the top\,
Mind-Switc h ¨\;C Womens think tank\, a monthly business forum &\; The Cleopatra
Club ¨\;C Social &\; networking dos\, skills and knowledge enh ancing social networking
activities. Neither an advocacy group for wo men drivers nor a group simply for

eating simultaneous short-term attraction strategies and long-term retentio

ng companies up to date on the current regulations and best practice in Chi
na. Guest Speaker: Edward Denison 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.
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 &\; Son
s (authors and publisher of Building Shanghai-The Story of China''s Gateway
). \; 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
. An exhibition of this work will be on display in the main gallery of the
Royal Institute of British Architects from mid-July to mid-September 2008.<
/p> Speaker''s Biography: They are currently writing a history of Modernism in China that will b
e published by Wiley in 2008 and exhibited at the RIBA from July to Septemb
er in association with the Mayor of London¡\;¯\;s extended China P
rogramme next year. 2007 AmCham Shanghai Corporate Social Responsibility Conference and Awards \;<

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 youĄŻ\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

e experiences of women whoĄŻve 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.

EVENT ORGANISER:
Professional Speakers Association of China (PSA-China)
The
Professional Speakers Association of China is run by professional speakers
for professional speakers with two fundamental goals:
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.
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 />
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.
SPEAKER: The Rapping Professor
The Rapping Professor
has noticed that a lot of people say they have absolutely no talent when i
t comes to singing\, creative writing &\; 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.
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.
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!

China''s economy produced USD2.3trn worth of goods and ser
vices last year -- and
looks set to grow another 12-13% this year. Wh
en on earth will it slow? There is
certainly no shortage of pessimism
. Doomsayers claim that a hard-landing is just
around the corner. Bei
jing''s policy-makers worry about over-investment and skying
property
prices. Inflows of money from overseas are threatening inflation. The US <
br />Congress is threatening trade sanctions. Everyone is arguing about the
Renminbi.
The government even seems to be turning against foreign in
vestment. Two economists -
- with at least three opinions -- will try
and sort out the pessimism from the
wishful thinking and tell you how
it really is.

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

Why CEOs F

Developing a Vibrant Financial Leadership Culture in Your
China Operation: Understanding the Impact of Executives'' Financial Persona
lities
Guest Speaker: Dr. Ted Prince\, CEO and Founder of the
Perth Leadership Institute
As we make enormous strides towards
becoming a leading destination for business and for developing world-class
products and services\, one of the main challenges we face is financial le
adership. As young people emerge to take over developing corporate assets\,
how can we help them develop world-class leadership and financial acumen t
o help our organization maintain and even increase its global lead in busin
ess? And what impact is your financial personality having on this process?
Dr. Ted Prince\, author of "\;The Three Financial Styles o
f Very Successful Leaders"\; is an expert in this topic. Widely publish
ed in the United States with a cutting edge leadership approach based on fi
nancial acumen\, Dr. Prince brings cutting edge concepts to this field. His
approach has been reviewed and published in such prestigious journals as H
arvard Business School''s "\;Working Knowledge"\; and MIT''s Sloan
Management Review.
Dr. Prince sets out new insights into the n
ature of financial leadership in China. He talks about the financial leader
ship styles that tend to consume capital (Resource-Centric Styles) and thos
e that tend to create it (Value-Centric Styles). Dr. Prince will explore ca
se studies of Chinese companies and their financial styles to give you insi
ghts into their likely valuation trajectories\, and the impact on China''s
economy. You will also gain insights into your own financial style\, and ho
w this impacts the profitability of your company.
Dr. Prince i
s the CEO and Founder of the Perth Leadership Institute\, a cutting-edge le

What you will learn specifically:
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...
Th
e common problems of business processes can be classified in "\;4 C&quo
t\;:
Typically only t
he first part "\;communication"\; 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...
This is laborious\, slow\, error-prone\, intransparen
t and guarantees an everlasting overflowing e-mail account!
In this w
orkshop we will show how you can improve these business processes in your o
ffice:

anywhere in the world. Some people
say China is the most challenging and difficult
country in the world

strongly
disagree and say that it all depends on how you do it\, who does it in your
organization and what resources you put into it.
We p
resent three speakers in a panel format\, each with more than a decade spen
t
working with Government in China to talk about their experiences\,
their views of
what works and what doesn''t\, and to share insights i
nto how Government relationship
work is changing. They bring experien
ce in multiple industries in both services and
manufacturing\, in M&a
mp\;A\, in projects\, in securing licenses\, in putting together
Gove
