The presentation sets out the key arguments from the concluding chapter Peter Bayliss' doctoral thesis on the role played by the body in the player's experience of videogame play. Drawing upon the work particularly of the phenomenologists Merleau-Ponty and Heidegger, it discusses how the experience of space and videogames can be experienced as space in which the player can inhabit and traverse - to experience a sense of presence within the game-world.

In this presentation, culture will be discussed as a determinant of behaviour within organisational units and as a macro-level determinant of leadership behaviour which is environment-specific. It is based on this understanding that cultural models for Asian Perspectives of Excellence in Leadership (APEL) country studies are developed, theorised and discussed. Each model is therefore unique but building on the same generic four-dimensional APEL model. From this logic and reasoning, the definition of leadership excellence in organisations is defined within the cultural context of its people, and structural modelling is employed to enable this. What this implies is that the robustness of any model lies in seeking the unique values embedded in the cultural environment; be it at the organisational or macro-national level. Precisely, for these reasons, the APEL model is built to allow the development of new cultural constructs that are value-driven. In this presentation, what constitutes cultural clusters is discussed and question when cultural clustering become meaningless. Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) is well known for offering relative matrix of data sets based on similarity or dissimilarity derived from correlations. Here we have used MDS to simplify the relationships between ASEAN. DataBlitz on Leadership was held on 23 August 2013.

This presentation examines forces of managerial influence in international development. It finds that while a pernicious managerialism can be observed, which has perverse consequences, it questions the utility of critical development management as a reform program. In doing so it argues that conceptualizing non-governmental organizations as third sector organizations offers an opportunity to create a more strategic and flexible management approach.
