Academics at Cranfield University and colleagues from the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom’s International Section recently delivered a defence and security leadership course for island nations in the south Pacific Ocean which involved coordination across six different time zones.
The Strategic Leadership Programme (SLP) was originally designed to be delivered in Vanuatu to 20 delegates from the region but was moved online due to COVID-19 and delivered simultaneously in Vanuatu, Fiji and Papua New Guinea, enabling 60 delegates to take part.
The three Island nations are on different time zones and with the Defence Attachés from Australia and New Zealand also participating as sponsors – along with the delivery team in the UK – the course involved working across six time zones between 10 and 13 hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time.
