BTS has extended their relationship with Telstra Corporation to incorporate two new management development programs using custom-built business simulations.
The existing 3-day Business Acumen Program that is delivered for Infrastructure Services division since 2003 is complemented with a 3-day Leading for Results program for senior management and a 1-day Financial Basics program for entry to middle level managers. The new programs are expected to have 300 - 400 participants in 2005 and add additional 3 MSEK of revenues.
Both of the new initiatives utilise customised business simulations, tailored to Telstra's business objectives and capturing latest changes in the communications market.
The new program goals are to further develop participants' business acumen, leadership skills, focusing on "value-based management" concepts and the levers that will drive Telstra's objectives of profitable growth.
"We are delighted with the feedback from the first programs. BTS has a strong presence in the global communications markets and we are passing this experience to Telstra. The latest addition of programs covers all levels of leadership pipeline at Telstra Corporation", says Ted Fawle, Managing Director of BTS Australia.
Telstra is Australia's leading telecommunications and information services company, with one of the best-known brands in the country. Telstra offers a full range of services and compete in all telecommunications markets throughout Australia.
Telstra's revenues exceeded 100 billion SEK in 2004.
