Special Seminar: Investigating Psychological Reactions to Covid-19

5/10/2020

Dear BGS New Zealand and Australia Members,

Our friends at AUT have invited us all for a special seminar series - Investigating Psychological Reactions to Covid-19 by Chris Krageloh, Associate Professor, Psychology - Department of Psychology and Neuroscience, AUT.

While governments around the world continue to work out how best to tackle the health crisis brought about by COVID-19, research has also started to investigate what psychological reactions people may have to the pandemic. A number of questionnaires have been developed to assess pandemic-related aspects of anxiety and fear. Gradually, a clearer picture is emerging about the role of these variables in motivating relevant health-promoting behaviours. Specific challenges to mental health will also need to be addressed in future research.

Seminar Date: 7th October
Time: 11am - 12:15pm NZT; 8am Sydney time

Dear BGS Members,

Our friends at University of Auckland are hosting an online event this Friday 2 October, 1-2pm, in conjunction with our Executive Education team. It’s called ‘Short Sharp’ – as it’s a ‘taster’ of their Short Courses run through the Executive Education team.

This one will be around creating value from data, featuring University of Auckland Marketing Professor Leo Paas and Microsoft Enterprise Director Brendan Bain. They will address the critical issues of organisation culture, sharing information across silos and how bridging the gap between the analysts collecting the data and management using the data is the key to organisational success.

Hello, BGS NZ members!

Do you run your own business, work in an organization, or have a new project you want to share with the BGS NZ community? If yes, we have a NEW OPPORTUNITY for you.

Starting this Friday, we are trialing a ‘PROMOTE YOUR BUSINESS’ initiative where you can promote your business or the projects you are working on.

While not required, it would be great to have a special offering (discount or extra value-added) for BGS members if you are promoting your business.

What makes this concept special is that there is NO ADVERTISING COST paid to BGS. This is one instance where you get FREE promotion directed to people just like you!

Promote your business will be open on both the BGS NZ Facebook and LinkedIn pages each Friday. So be sure to add your links and promotions on both social media platforms!

Have a great day,
BGS NZ Alumni Committee
