From starting as a blue-collar worker in Kalgoorlie to completing executive education at Harvard and MIT and founding Astron Consulting, Kiru Thangadurai knows exactly what it takes to build true resilience.

On 17 June, we are incredibly excited to bring her world-class expertise to our boardroom for The Neuroscience of Leadership: Sustainable High Performance.

In this interactive 40-minute session, she isn’t just sharing theory—she’s giving us the exact, science-backed tools she uses to help global executives lead with absolute clarity, trust, and purpose.

If you want to:
• Upgrade your decision-making under intense pressure
• Learn how to optimize your physical state for peak mental focus
• Connect with a dynamic group of Perth business leaders over a light lunch and drinks
..this is the room you need to be in.

We are officially weeks away and boardroom seats are strictly limited to keep this conversation intimate. Don’t wait until the last minute.

We’re delighted to share that our next Signature Event — Socials@Stories — has officially sold out.

2026 has already been an incredible year for our community, with each gathering bringing its own energy, new connections, and memorable moments.

Next week, our members will come together at the unique Fat Controller space at Stories for a relaxed evening of good food, great company, and conversations that always seem to take on a life of their own.

We’re looking forward to another special night together — and no doubt a few great stories to tell afterwards!

Last week, we welcomed forty of our members for a memorable morning of connection and conversation at Elizabeth Quay. The energy in the room was vibrant, and the atmosphere set the tone for a genuinely engaging start to the day.

This gathering wouldn’t have been possible without the support of Kelly Crossley and TRANSITAINER (WA) Pty Ltd. Kelly is a standout in the freight forwarding industry and has been one of our most consistent supporters over the past six years.

Thank you to all members and guests who joined us—we’re looking forward to an eventful couple of months ahead!

A genuine thank you to our sponsors, members, and guests. It’s this kind of energy and support that keeps the community moving forward — we’re looking forward to hosting you all next week!

This is the worst that tech will ever be.

That was the wake-up call from our recent Thrive Talks session with Drew Mayhills.

If the AI we have today is the “worst” version we’ll ever use again, the real challenge for small businesses isn’t speed; it’s value.

As AI becomes more integrated in how we work, here are three shifts worth thinking about:

1️⃣ Don’t just use AI, challenge it�Most people use AI to get answers faster.�The real advantage is using it to think better.�Push it. Question it. Let it challenge your ideas.

2️⃣ Fix the system before you automate�If the process is messy, automation just makes it messier… faster.�Clean your inputs, start small, and build from what’s already working.

3️⃣ Stay human where it matters�AI can handle tasks.�But trust, relationships, and judgement still sit with us.�That’s where the real value is shifting.

The takeaway:�AI won’t replace us, but it will raise the bar on how we show up.

You need to stop and think that if AI is taking care of the doing, where are you creating the most human value in your business?

A big thank you Drew for leading such a powerful and practical session!

Last Thursday we gathered around the table for an Evening at the Embassy.

We are always looking for ways to help our members connect through their shared experiences, building not only business relationships but also genuine friendships.
This is how the evening felt: like a dinner with friends.
Served by an impeccable team, the three-course dinner and a well-curated selection of wines created a relaxed, homely atmosphere.

Thank you to everyone who made this dinner as special as it was, specially to Bodie Woolcott and ESN Group for their support of the event.
