In hospitality, an organisation has only one truly sustainable competitive advantage; its culture. With this in mind Deakin Management Centre invested in its leadership, and released the shackles that were stifling creativity, innovation and the opportunities that arise from autonomy.
This seemingly risky move resulted in improved business performance, client & staff retention.
