After a 24 year long career in IBM-with the last eight years as CEO of IBM Indonesia- Betti Alisjahbana would often be invited by various organizations to facilitate trainings and to share her experience in regards to pursuing successful career, management and leadership. It was from that experience that it became apparent, one of the main shortcomings that Indonesia is dealing with right now is in leadership.
In 2010, Betti devoted herself in contributing to the development of leadership in Indonesia through QB Leadership Center. This business unit aims to help create new leaders that are both reliable and a person of integrity-particularly in companies-using an approach that utilizes experience sharing by successful and accomplished leaders.

The Becoming an Effective Leader & Manager workshop by Betti Alisjahbana is largely driven by the many feedbacks from fellow CEO’s on how often promising professionals would fail to transform into an effective manager in their respective workplaces.
