Whether you fell into a management position or started out your career gunning to become a leader, this talk hopes to iron out some of the issues that people face when they find themselves promoted to a managerial position for the first time. Given that job transitions are often fast-paced in China, many young professionals may find themselves placed in management positions in a much shorter period than they might expect back home. At this discussion, three young and experienced British managers share their tips and insights that have helped them transition more effectively into the role of manager. RMB 60. 6.30-9pm. Arrow Factory
