The Cranlana Programme

Run jointly by Curtin Business School and the Melbourne-based Myer Foundation, the Cranlana Program is a unique program for modern day leader. It entails a week-long seminar, called a Colloquium which brings together 20 invited participants including company CEOs and senior executives, from public, private and non-profit organisations.

Using the texts of great thinkers from Western, Eastern and Indigenous traditions as a starting point, participants examine their own assumptions about what constitutes a good society, leadership, decision making, values, ethics, morality and justice.

The Colloquium receives support from LotteryWest to enable non-profit sector people to attend. The Perth program is the only one outside Melbourne and has at Curtin’s initiative, expanded in 2008 to include a special program for Yr 12 student leaders.

"Cranlana is a very unusual management development program because it's not a 'how-to' program for successful management. The seminars really challenge your basic assumptions and ask questions like 'What am I really doing when I am a leader, what are the assumptions with which I assume those leadership roles?'
