Chapter Event - in person
How green is the grass in the other fields of research management? Meet your peers on common ground by gathering for barefoot lawn bowls at the Merthyr Bowls Club!
Join ARMS members that are based in South-East Queensland for a spectacur Research Administrator's Day clebration by shedding your shoes and digging your toes into lots of green grass.
Participate in this social gathering for a delightful smattering of light conversation and a delicate but stimulating meeting of the minds. This event celebrates and promotes the diversity of thought and background in the research management profession by providing an organic way to mingle and meet new peers outside of the usual goal-oriented environment.
Members can choose to be part of guided networking with their random bowls teams, and will be prompted with questions about how you bring your whole self to your research management role and manage to survive life in Brisbane at the end of the day. If you have ever wanted to walk in someone else’s shoes for an afternoon, then take yours off and step onto the green for a fresh perspective of the work we share!
