2026 ANZ Business Growth Webinar Event Series
This webinar about leading for scale is brought to you by our partner ANZ. It is part of a series of six hosted by Growth Expert Sarah Curtis-Fawley with panellists selected from alumni CEOs and growth experts. They are perfect for business owners looking to grow their company.
Register – Growth-Ready Employees: Building Capability Before You Scale
People issues are one of the most common growth blockers. This session focuses on how to build a workforce that can support growth, not slow it down. From hiring decisions to capability building and performance expectations, the emphasis is on practical steps that reduce risk and regret.
Participants will learn:
• When to hire – and when not to
• How to define roles that support growth
• Early warning signs that a role or structure isn’t working
• How to lift capability across your team.
Join our host Growth Expert Sarah Curtis-Fawley together with guest panellists Jason Ruth, COO Southern Design Group and Chris Procter, Growth Expert and former CEO of Sealite.
