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 – Leading for Growth: Letting Go Without Losing Control

Many businesses hit a ceiling not because of market conditions, but because leadership hasn’t evolved at the same pace as the business.

This session explores how leadership needs to change as complexity increases, from decision-making and delegation to accountability and trust. The focus is practical: what leaders need to stop, start, and shift as they grow.

Participants will learn:

  • How leadership behaviours must change as the business scales
  • Practical ways to delegate without things falling apart
  • Simple decision frameworks that reduce reliance on the founder
  • How to lead through growth without burning out

Join our host Growth Expert Sarah Curtis-Fawley together with guest panellists Brett Vorhauer, Managing Director of Rae-Line and Paul Farrell, CEO of NGIS.
