The Winning Mindset: High Performance Leadership Breakfast

On Monday 15th June join Advance Cairns for a special Leadership Breakfast featuring renowned rugby league coach Tony Smith, one of the sport's most respected leaders and Ali Burke, the women and girls lead at AFL Cairns. 

Drawing on decades of experience, building high-performing teams, Tony will share powerful insights into leadership, resilience, mindset and maintaining focus under pressure - practical lessons that CEOs and business leaders can apply directly within their own organisations. Ali will discuss the exciting growth of women's AFL in the region, the impact of Hawthorn Football Club's presence in Cairns, and the city's emergence as a premier destination for women's sport and major sporting events.

Together, our speakers will explore how high-performance cultures, community investment and leadership can drive success both on and off the field.
