About

BDO is the fifth largest full service accounting and advisory firm in the world. In Australia they have more than 160 partners and over 1,300 people providing tax. Impact worked with BDO to design a practical yet inspirational development programme for emerging leaders.

The Apex Leadership Development Program in Australia was developed as a result of an initial directive from the Executive Committee to design a practical yet inspirational development program for the emerging leaders. The Team worked in close partnership with Impact Australia on the leadership journey and The Talea Group on business development to design and deliver the Apex Program.

The Apex program combines Impact’s current thinking on leadership and The Talea Group’s experience in business development to enhance organisational performance coupled with lots of practical experience, tools and techniques. The multi-modular program included 360° feedback, diagnostics, cross-functional business projects, experiential projects and learning reviews.

"Throughout the program learning was created through integrating experience with theory and drawing practical conclusions. Feedback to individuals about the effectiveness of their leadership and business development actions ensured that the learning was relevant, leading to lasting behavioural change in the workplace." - Afroditi Bousnakis, National Head of Learning & Development

Beatrice Venditti
HR Manager
Stryker
"Our experience has been extremely effective for both professional and personal development. For all the participants, it was a 'rediscovery' process as colleagues. Impact facilitated the sessions with a professional and enthusiastic approach. Our team was stretched and challenged physically and emotionally. In module two, it was great to demonstrate what team and inclusion stand for - no prejudice and much personal learning. We are committed to go forward. Thank you for this fantastic experience!"

"The programme design, group discussions, solo reflection time and activities were well thought out and planned. I felt ‘stretched’, and this was a great feeling."

Sony
"We had the highest ever retention for the programme, which was 93%, or every graduate who wanted to stay within Sony did so. An added benefit was that we developed a new selling point for our graduate programme, which we believe directly contributed towards a significant increase in applications for the graduate programme this year."
