Item Building capacity to lead and implement regional transformation in the sugar industry : Final report CSR029(Sugar Research and Development Corporation (SRDC), 2004) Livingstone, GThis project arose from an emerging need to increase the capacity of leaders at all levels of the Australian Sugar Industry and its supporting communities. Specifically, the industry was going through a period of substantial change in technical and organisational systems in response to the need to build its international competitiveness and sustainability. New skill sets were seen to be necessary in order to achieve required changes in the organisation of sectors within the industry including changes to practices within individual organisations and developing new ways of working together with a whole of value chain approach.Item Researching accredited training needs for the Australian Sugar Industry : Final report CG003(2004)This report researches training needs for cane growers in Queensland and Northern New South Wales and addresses the project objectives:Item Tully Sugar Industry project : Working for our future, phase 2(Sugar Research and Development Corporation (SRDC), 2005) Lucy, PThe project utilised services of Organisational Psychologist Ian Plowman, to build capacity for change and develop the management ability of a number of participants in the Tully Sugar Industry.Item Specialist grower groups enhancing BMP packaging and adoption in Innisfail, and Babinda districts : Final report IBS002(Innisfail Babinda Cane Productivity Services, 2008) Horsford, BIt was generally accepted throughout the sugar fraternity that grower group structures within the Innisfail / Babinda region were generally disjointed and, at times, lost credence by peers through the lack of network communications available to the existing group structures. Funding opportunities for these loose groups and some individuals were limited as government agencies demanded accurate grant applications, community consultation, fiscal accountability and prompt acquittal of funds. Even with this ad hoc approach there was a history of innovation (from the region) and it was felt structured and better organised grower groups would assist greatly in nurturing and developing these innovative ideas. The concept was to develop the skills of key leaders to lead and develop the group processes throughout the district whilst recognising the unique locality and nature of the industry in this region.Item Writing for results : a practical workshop(Sugar Research Australia Limited, 1991) Wrigley, JOur Writing for Results Workshop was designed as a follow-up to the workshop held in Mackay September 1991.
