SUMMARY:Energy Research Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Do you have a new interdisciplinary energy research idea?  \nThe Curtin Institute for Energy Transition is keen to bring together energy researchers from across the university to participate in a workshop to brainstorm new ideas for research. It will be an opportunity to not only meet other energy researchers but also hear about the great work that is being undertaken. PhD students are also welcome to participate on the day. We are hoping that we may be able to provide some small seed funding to develop one or two of these ideas post-workshop if researchers are keen. \nThis event will run from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm (including lunch!) and will take place at Curtin’s Bentley campus – specific room TBA based on numbers. Registration is REQUIRED for planning purposes. More details to come soon – we look forward to seeing you on Monday the 2nd of September. \nPlease contact ciet@curtin.edu.au with any questions

SUMMARY:Scaling Strategy: How to hire headcount for sustainable growth
DESCRIPTION:More Knowledgeable Other  The zone of proximal development says that a more knowledgeable person can enhance a person’s learning by guiding them through a task slightly above their ability level.

If your business is reaching the stage where you’re hiring headcount\, or just want to be ready for when you do\, learn how to create and implement hiring strategy that will allow you to scale. \nGet the skills you need to build a legendary team to grow your business. \n*Limited spot available with a strict capacity cap. Reserve your spot now and if you end up not being able to make it\, please let us know so we can give your spot to the waiting list. \nHaven’t been to Bloom in a while?
