Overview
How Coles Myer, along with its partner DeakinPrime, built programs for a cross-section of Coles Myer learners from all brands supporting the business strategy to maximize opportunities for employee interactions across brands. Coles Myer is the largest retailer in Australia, employing 185,000 people and representing well-known brands such as Target, K-Mart, Officeworks, Coles and Coles Online. Core Learning and Development programs for middle and senior managers at Coles Myer are managed by DeakinPrime, the business arm of Deakin University, a premier Australian University.
