Lessons from History—Looking Back to Look Forward |
The COVID-19 pandemic crystallised many strategies and engaged change, and in some cases, placed clubs on unplanned and uncontrolled trajectories. Looking back over the last 40 years, the various drivers of change will be reviewed and how the industry has responded. Lessons from history will be identified and how the current new frontiers must be managed strategically to ensure that our clubs have a place in the future of NSW communities. Russell Corporate Advisory will present this seminar.

Equipping Yourself—the Right Skills for Future Viability & Managing Uncertainty |
There is the inherent expectation that all directors have the right skills for managing uncertainty to ensure future viability of clubs. They need to be equally focussed on financial sustainability and their social and community responsibilities. Workplace compliance and culture are all important factors in the strategic plan of every club. To not get these right, a club can risk disaster. PKF will be exploring each of these areas in detail through case studies and interactive exercises to equip directors with the practical tools and knowledge to handle these challenges. |
