  • The Impact of Restructuring on Sunway College Kuala Lumpur Employees
    ORGANISATIONAL CHANGE: THE IMPACT OF RESTRUCTURING ON SUNWAY COLLEGE KUALA LUMPUR EMPLOYEES Noorwati Ismail Asreen Ayumi Abdullah Sani Ernee Zolkafle Reem Abbas AbuBaker Graduate School of Management, International Islamic University of Malaysia ABSTRACT Organisational change could affect the organisation positively or negatively. Apart from the management, employees are also affected with the changes. In the case of Sunway College Kuala Lumpur (SCKL), the organisational restructuring involves an establishment of new companies where the employees are realigned and transferred to different companies. The purpose of this case study is to identify the issues faced by the SCKL employees after the restructuring and how the management is handling these issues. The information is gathered through in-depth interviews with the employees under SCKL and Sunway Education Group Sdn Bhd, as well as the students who are under the Australian University Programme. Based on the findings, the management perceives the issues raised by the employees as mere perception, and instead claims that the restructuring has actually had a positive impact. We have further analysed the issues and integrated our findings with the management theories discussed in the Organizational Behaviour and Leadership course. However, we note that the information collected is prone to bias due to the limited number of respondents interviewed. COMPANY BACKGROUND Sunway Education Group (SEG) aspires to be the international education hub in Malaysia, one that the nation and Sunway students and staff can be proud of. As one of the pioneers of private education in Malaysia, it has helped transform the landscape of education in Malaysia and create benchmarks many others in the local industry have emulated.

  • The Jeffrey Cheah Scholars-In-Residence Programme at Brasenose College, University of Oxford
    The Jeffrey Cheah Scholars-in-Residence Programme at Brasenose College, University of Oxford INFORMATION In a Memorandum of Agreement, signed by Tan Sri Dr Jeffrey Cheah AO with Brasenose College, Oxford in November 2015, provision was made for the establishment in Brasenose of the Jeffrey Cheah Scholars-in-Residence programme. Brasenose College, founded in 1509, is one of Oxford’s most prestigious colleges. The College is located in Radcliffe Square in the centre of Oxford, adjacent to the iconic Radcliffe Camera, and it has a residential annexe, Frewin Hall, also in the centre of Oxford. The Jeffrey Cheah Scholars-in-Residence Programme This prestigious programme enables two members of the Sunway Education Group (SEG) to reside in Brasenose College for a period of four weeks to undertake significant research and other academic activities using the University’s extensive libraries and laboratory facilities. Brasenose does not provide any supervision or teaching to the Scholars, who are expected to be academically independent. Residential accommodation is provided by Brasenose, and the period of residence must be in the University vacation periods. Only one Scholar at a time may take up residence, and, as the residence is out of term, two meals only (breakfast and lunch) are provided on Monday to Friday inclusive. Air travel expenses will be paid by the business unit, to which the successful candidate belongs. Scholars are issued with a Brasenose identity card which provides access to the Bodleian and other University Libraries. If it is intended that laboratory facilities will be needed, the Scholar must make arrangements for access with the appropriate University Department.

  • Victoria and the Asian Century, 8-9 Aug 2013 Conference Write-Up Submitted By: Lorelei Aguirre
    Victoria and the Asian Century, 8-9 Aug 2013 Conference Write-Up Submitted by: Lorelei Aguirre S E S S I O N 1 - TERTIARY EDUCATION I N THE ASIAN CENTURY Introduction The Conference began on a high note with the speech given by Hon Bill Shorten MP, Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, at the opening wherein, essentially, he emphasized that in order to meet the Asian Century head on, Australia must reinvigorate its educational systems to meet “Australia’s biggest opportunity since the Gold Rush.” He further described two scenarios for the audience which literally set the tone for the start of the Conference: 1) create the educational century within the Australian school system - improving the quality of teaching, learning and leadership, and 2) make Australia the “Oxbridge,” or the apex of academic excellence - attracting the best and brightest scholars of the Asia-Pacific region. He added, however, that these aspirations are deeply anchored on understanding Asia beyond its languages. More importantly, it is in the appreciation of its cultures, histories and hopes for the future. How do we achieve that vision? What motivates Asia? What commonalities between these “Near North” neighbours can Australia draw from or provide strength to? The speech of Hon Bill Shorten set the direction for the rest of the Conference and it seemed perfect then for the first session to discuss Tertiary Education in the Asian Century. Professor Peter Dawkins, Vice-Chancellor and President, Victoria University (Chair) raised the following question - how can Australia engage the Asian region? Speakers Edward Byrne, Vice-Chancellor and President, Monash University Professor Byrne began by describing the present age as a “massive global change wherein five centuries of Northern European domination is coming to an end.” He pointed out that the rise of Asia, the massive size of which is home to two-thirds of the world’s middle class, will drive global demand for products and services in the next fifty years, as noted by OECD.
