2009 The Australian Strategic Planning Institute public workshops dates released
Monday 16 February 2009
The Australian Strategic Planning Institute one day Public workshops on Advanced Strategic Planning have been finalised.

Bookings are still limited with numbers restricted to around 35 people per session. Both Steve Bowman and Marcus Barber will continue to act as your expert facilitators for each event scheduled for Adelaide; Brisbane; Melbourne; and Sydney.
