Cedar Anderson, Director - Myassista

"In today's society, it's crucial to create an environment where people are recognized as individuals, not just as diagnoses. This is especially important for the Sandwich Generation, those caught between the Baby Boomers and Gen X, who juggle the responsibilities of caring for aging parents while raising their own families."


Scott Patterson, Director - Alternative Business Strategies

"At a recent meeting with some valued clients who have built, and continue to operate, a successful family business I asked the parents, who both worked in the business, what their end game was."



Richard Munro, Partner - Alternate Business Strategies

"A robust strategy is more than just a selling decision and has many elements."


Ben Watts, CEO of Watts Next.


“As businesses continue to grapple with returning to office spaces, we have seen and predict a significant increase in FWA requests from employees seeking to maintain flexible work arrangements”


Dr Steve Bagi, Consulting Psychologist, Teaching Fellow, Bond University


"Have you spent time considering your strengths and how they help you to be effective in your leadership role?"


Lisa Carter, CEO/Managing Director - Clear Insurance

'One of the most crucial aspects for a business to navigate is cyber insurance.'


Scott Patterson | Partner | Alternate Business Strategies

Many successful business owners struggle with succession planning. The business is often more than just a job; it's a part of their identity, a source of purpose and pride. Relinquishing control can feel scary, and the thought of "what next?" can be daunting. These are valid concerns, but they shouldn't prevent you from taking action.


Traditional medicine views the consumer as a “patient “and not as a “client’ and this is a subtle but important distinction. A patient always comes first, their needs and outcome is paramount, they are not a client to be sold to, and at Envisage Clinic we feel that this distinction is an important one. Our customers are patients, not clients. We never recommend a treatment that we do not believe is beneficial to the patient.


Ben Watts, CEO - Wattsnext

'On June 3rd, 2024, Fair Work Australia announced a 3.75% increase to the minimum wage. This coincides with the pre-planned 0.5% increase to Superannuation, resulting in wages costs growing by 4.25% on July 1st, 2024.'
'Business owners must be strategic. It’s about finding ways to absorb these costs without compromising on the quality of service or overburdening our financial health.'


Peter McKeon, Founder/CEO - Salesmasters International

'The sales landscape is continually evolving, presenting both opportunities and challenges. By addressing misconceptions about hiring, updating sales processes, enforcing KPAs and KPIs, aligning reward metrics, and focusing on value-based selling, sales teams can overcome blockers to growth.'


Peter McKeon, Founder/CEO- Salesmasters

'In sales, first impressions aren't just important; they're everything. The moment you start that conversation, you're either on the path to a deal or a dead end. So, how do you ensure it's the former? By mastering the first two minutes of your sales interaction.'


Huw Pryse Lloyd, CEO - Kzen8

'There is no escaping the fact that there are a number of new technologies,  including AI, Robotics, No-Code and IoT, that are set to change the business landscape dramatically in the coming years.'
