Great @HRM_MIPS launch event yesterday! @FZMarques opened up about the non-instagram version of science and how we should all work towards a better work culture, and two @MIPS_Australia researchers shared their experience from Science Meets Parliament earlier in the year.
Great turn out today for our HRM launch!
It’s been wonderful hearing from @FZMarques and learning practical ways to improve workplace culture.
