In uncertain times, high performance doesn’t happen by chance — it’s built.
Join us for an engaging evening with leaders from elite sport and business as they share insights on building high-performing teams and individuals in uncertain times.
Featuring Sam Cordingley (Wallaby 761), General Manager of High Performance at the Queensland Reds, and Toby Jenkins, Water Polo Olympian, executive coach, award-winning entrepreneur and author, this session will provide practical perspectives on leadership, resilience, and performance under pressure, and how these principles translate directly into the business world.
Designed for leaders and emerging leaders, this is a unique opportunity to learn how elite performers think, lead, and consistently deliver results in high-pressure environments.
Sam will also provide insights into the exciting partnership between the Queensland Reds and the Italian rugby club Benetton, as well as the Reds’ upcoming international tour later this year. We will also hear from Antonio Pavanello, President of Benetton Rugby.
Following the discussion, guests will enjoy a relaxed cocktail networking session—an opportunity to connect with fellow members and business professionals in a vibrant setting. A raffle will also be held during the evening.
