IMARC NextGen can ‘help drive the future of mining’: Newmont (IMARC)

 

 

 

 

 

Program aligned with major’s ‘commitment to nurturing new talent and encouraging fresh perspectives’

 

IMARC’s landmark NextGen education and leadership program can connect a diverse group of potential future mining leaders with a critically authentic view of what lies ahead for the industry, says Newmont’s acting head of external relations in Australia, Simon Troeth.

 

The major is sponsoring the Sydney event’s unique CoRE Learning Gamification Zone, an integral part of its expanded NextGen program, which this year is expected to involve more than 500 primary, secondary and tertiary students from around Australia.

 

The learning area will showcase CoRE’s Gamifying Earth Science Minecraft-based learning series and the expanding impact of its national schools and educator network.

 

Australia’s growing importance in Newmont’s global strategy underlines the importance of IMARC as a communication stage, says Troeth. A number of the company’s senior leaders will speak at the event on responsible mining, innovation, sustainability and collaboration issues.

 

“IMARC 2024 will be a pivotal platform for Newmont to connect with a diverse audience that is essential for driving innovation and sustainability within the mining sector,” Troeth said.

 

“Our core messages centre on empowering the next generation of leaders, driving technological advancement and fostering a culture of inclusivity within the mining industry.

 

“Newmont recognises the richness of the expanded IMARC NextGen program, particularly through its interactive Gamification Zone – aligning with Newmont’s commitment to nurturing new talent and encouraging fresh perspectives within the industry.

 

“Traditional learning methods require transformation into dynamic experiences that resonate with younger professionals, encouraging hands-on learning while fostering a sense of community among emerging leaders in the mining sector.

 

“The curation of the NextGen program is distinct in its focus on interactive and experiential learning, moving away from traditional lecture formats to integrate gamification elements and add a layer of excitement and competition. This will embed knowledge, encourage collaboration, foster a sense of community and cultivate shared purpose.

 

“The program’s hands-on approach encourages a deeper understanding of the topics discussed and facilitates practical skill development, making the learning experience more insightful and enduring.”

 

Troeth said the program had been thoughtfully constructed to address specific needs and interests of a new generation of leaders in the mining industry, with a focus on contemporary issues such as sustainability, technology and innovation.

 

“The IMARC NextGen program will help drive the future of mining by bringing together a diverse group of aspiring leaders and facilitating meaningful interactions,” he said.

 

“It plays a crucial role in fostering a new generation of professionals who are committed to making a positive impact in the sector.

 

“By incorporating topics that are relevant to the future of mining, such as sustainability and technological advancement, the program equips participants with the tools and knowledge necessary to navigate an increasingly complex landscape.

 

“This forward-thinking approach ensures that emerging leaders are prepared to tackle current issues while empowering them to bring more innovation to the industry.”

 

The NextGen program also highlighted the importance of building relationships, Troeth said.

 

As emphasised by CoRE (Centre of Resource Excellence) Learning Foundation founder Suzy Urbaniak, “the value of connection cannot be overstated”.

 

“Strong networks are essential for sharing insights and resources,” Troeth said.

 

“The NextGen program creates numerous opportunities for participants to engage with peers, mentors and industry leaders, lighting the path for future collaborations and partnerships.

 

“The emphasis on networking, inclusivity and relationship-building sets the NextGen program apart.

 

“By facilitating connections among a diverse group of participants, the program creates a supportive network that extends beyond the event itself. These relationships are crucial for knowledge exchange and collaboration, enabling young leaders to tap into a broader community of resources and support as they advance in their careers.

 

“This focus on diverse perspectives not only enriches the discussions but also ensures that the next generation of leaders is well-prepared to approach challenges with creativity and adaptability, reflecting the multifaceted nature of the modern global mining industry.”

 

Building on last year’s 10th edition, IMARC 2024 is expected to attract more than 9000 industry people from over 120 countries.

 

“On an international scale, IMARC positions itself as a critical nexus for dialogue and partnership among diverse stakeholders,” Troeth said.

 

“Newmont aims to leverage this platform to communicate its commitment to responsible mining, the importance of innovation in achieving sustainability goals and the value of collaboration across sectors.

 

“By actively participating in IMARC, Newmont strengthens its brand while playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of mining on a global scale.”

 

Disclosure: Simon Troeth is a director of the CoRE Learning Foundation in addition to his role with Newmont.
