AuSAE has also announced that the 2011 Third Sector Leaders Symposium and launch of the Australasian Society of Association Executives will be held in Canberra from 8-9 September.
The symposium will include presentations from key players in the third sector.
In previous years, delegates have heard from former Labor Minister for Finance and Deregulation Lindsay Tanner, Productivity Commissioner Robert Fitzgerald, Stephen Mayne of The Mayne Report and founder of crikey.com, Michael Anderson, Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Society of Association Executives, and Michael Schaper from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.
Networking is an important part of AuSAE, as many executive officers of smaller associations work in relative isolation, and even CEOs of medium–large organisations need to make time to meet up with their peers.
