JPE, which works to enhance the professional and self development of young managers and future executives in the printing industry, have designed the sessions so that all attendees can walk away with valuable tools to achieve their goals.

Guest speakers include Natasha Munasinghe, general manager of The FRANK Team, a leader in education and training in Australia, and Christine Bullivant group manager – corporate services with father Chris Riley’s Youth Off the Streets programme.

Munasinghe has facilitated and trained hundreds of people in fields such as leadership, mentoring, innovation and professional development. She has worked closely with young professionals associations, universities, companies and state and federal bodies.

Earlier this year she represented Australia at the 2011 Global Entrepreneurship Week Congress in China and has been one of 300 people invited globally to be a delegate at the Future of Entrepreneurship Education Summit by the US Chamber of Commerce later in 2011.

Meanwhile, Bullivant worked as a major event organiser for the Festival of Sydney and a TV producer before joining Youth Off the Streets, initially as a volunteer before becoming a full-time staff member.

The organisation supports young people who are dealing with homelessness, abuse and neglect, drug and alcohol dependency and general disconnectedness.

The conference is set to be held August 19-21 at the Newport Mirage.
