AMPLIFY 2025

Join us at Queensland's No.1 Premium Immersive Leadership Masterclass 

The operating environment of business is shifting rapidly. The reality is, as leaders, what got us here today won’t get us where we need to go tomorrow. The playbook for great leadership is shifting, and those who can’t adapt will be left behind.  AMPLIFY 2025! will help you uncover what makes YOU unique and how to use your strengths for success in an ever-evolving business landscape to shape your own playbook.

What makes AMPLIFY 2025! so valuable?

1. It is founded on SIMPLIFY-EXEMPLIFY-AMPLIFY - 3 tenets of great leadership that amplify your unique value proposition as a leader.

2. A personalised Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment will be conducted and analysed to uncover your unique leadership strengths.

3. Learn to amp up your executive presence and communication cut-through with leading global expert Dr Louise Mahler.

4. Share stories of trailblazing leaders on adaptability, resilience and the skills you need to position for future success.

5. Teams of 8 receive a team strengths evaluation on how to work more productively together.

6. Walk away with actionable resources and a toolkit to implement immediately, helping you simplify complexity, amplify your strengths, and exemplify exceptional leadership.

It’s time to rewrite the rules and discover what it will take to be a great leader of tomorrow.

What makes AMPLIFY 2025! so unique? 

Leadership conferences are common – most are passive in delivery, repetitive in content, heavy on theory, and light on practical application.

AMPLIFY 2025! is a fully immersive Leadership Masterclass based on scientific analysis, real-life insights, and expert-led personal development. It is designed to equip aspiring men and women to re-shape and re-frame what their existing approach and future leadership pathways can be.

AMPLIFY 2025! is an industry-tested, one-of-a-kind event. It will shake-up the way you define your unique core strengths that when Simplified, Exemplified and Amplified will set you up for leadership impact. The experience will challenge your current mindset, encourage you to evaluate yourself from a new perspective, and motivate you to act using a tangible action plan. 

AMPLIFY 2025! Has handpicked four exceptional trailblazing leaders—not just because of their inspirational stories, own leadership capabilities and runs on the board—but because their vastly diverse journeys provide you with real-world case studies that relate specifically to each of the modules you participate in. Plus you get to quiz them up close and personal over lunch or a glass of champagne after. 

What we want is for you to  walk away galvanised by the discovery of the true leader in you, clear in your focus on how to use your own unique strengths, and inspired by the insights of those who are already reshaping the future of leadership.
