Come and farewell 2020 with us in a special event – a real and raw conversation with sector leaders about the year that no-one expected. Created in partnership with our friends at The Xfactor Collective.
\n
\nTheir CEO and founder Julia Keady will host a panel discussion with three sector CEOs – Patrick Walker, Bernadette Black and Matt Pfahlert – who will share their unique stories, their trials and triumphs, and the ways the sector has continued to rally around the human spirit.
\n
\nWe’ll get into leadership ups and downs, what we’ve collectively learned and observed as a sector, and after all the talk of “pivoting” and “transformation” we’ll have an honest look at the things none of us want to take forward, and what we are keeping into 2021.
\n
\nIt will be real, it will be raw – maybe some tears, definitely some laughs – a great opportunity for a virtual send-off. Farewell 2020, hello 2021!
\n
\nWe’ll discuss topics such as:
\n
\n
The unique challenges some of our sector leaders faced this year, and how they tackled them
\n
What was the single hardest moment for each leader this year – what nearly broke them?
\n
What we’ve learned about ourselves, our teams, and the sector
\n
What the sector needs to leave behind in 2020 and NOT take with us
\n
\n
\n
\nWe’ll inspire you with:
\n
\n
The learnings and growth that can come out of a year like this one and the ideas that we’re taking with us
\n
Tales of setbacks that were turned into opportunities
\n
How innovative and resilient the sector can be under pressure
\n
\n
\n
\nWho should attend this webinar?
\n
\n
Anyone who wants to pause and reflect for an hour on their own year, while listening into the experience of others
\n
Those who want to virtually connect for an hour of inspiration, tears and laughter
\n
Leaders who want to hear about the transformation journey that other organisation leaders have endured because of and during 2020

\nPatrick Walker
\nCEO, Australian Sports Foundation
\n
\nCommunity sports participation rates are falling and Australia is now one of the least active – and obese – nations in the world. This impacts both our physical and mental health, and weakens social cohesion. Patrick is on a mission to get more Australians more active through community sport.
