OBGS Movember Breakfast

How do you mentally perform under pressure – and what happens when things don’t go to plan?

Join us for the OBGS Movember Breakfast under the Oak where you'll hear from two Old Boys with different experiences of ambition, performance and navigating setbacks.

Simon Crowe (OB 1990) opened the first Grill’d in Hawthorn in 2004, growing it into one of Australia’s best-known food brands. He brings a business leader’s perspective on responsibility and the pressures of building and leading a business.

Chris Dawes (OB 2006) played 121 AFL games for Collingwood and Melbourne, including Collingwood’s 2010 premiership victory. He brings insights into expectations, injury setbacks and life beyond professional sport.

Hear real stories and take away practical tools for managing pressure, looking after your wellbeing and asking for support.

It's also an opportunity to return to BGS, enjoy breakfast under the Oak and reconnect with fellow Old Boys.
