Join us for an insightful presentation with guest speakers Bronwen Bock and Lucy Bradlow from the Better Together Party and, back by popular demand, Scott Thomson, Victorian Leaders Advisory Board member and ex-Googler with Future Funnel Thinking.
Bronwen and Lucy will build on their thought-provoking discussion about launching Australia's first job-sharing campaign for Federal Parliament. Their pioneering approach challenged traditional leadership models and sparked a national conversation about flexibility, inclusion and the future of work. As job-share candidates, they took their case all the way to the Federal Court, advocating for greater access to leadership opportunities and new ways of thinking about how leadership can be structured. Their story offers valuable insights for business leaders navigating talent attraction, retention and evolving workforce expectations.
Scott Thomson will explore a practical framework for understanding where AI is heading and, more importantly, how business owners can prepare before major shifts occur. Rather than reacting to change, you'll learn how to anticipate what's coming, identify opportunities and avoid being blindsided by developments that could materially impact your business over the next 12 months and beyond.
Expect thought-leading ideas, meaningful discussion and practical insights to help you lead with intention, strengthen your business and maximise your impact.
As an added bonus, Meg Daniher from CellarHand will take us through a tasting of four wines, two whites and two reds, that punch well above their weight when it comes to quality and value. CellarHand is Melbourne based with a portfolio covering amazing European, Australian and New Zealand producers.
In partnership with Malvern Road Wine Beer Spirits, members will also have access to special event pricing should they wish to purchase any of the wines featured.
We look forward to having you with us. And as always, you're welcome to bring a guest who would benefit from the conversation. In this case, we'd argue that's just about every business owner!
