The Future Fit Leadership Edit is my personal take on what it means to lead in today’s ever-changing world. Here, I share reflections, insights, and conversations that matter — the human side of leadership, the bold moves, the lessons we’re still learning. The leadership landscape is shifting fast, and we’re not just leading — we’re learning how to lead as we go. It’s real, honest, and future-focused — just like leadership should be.
Grand final week in Melbourne turns every coffee chat into match talk. As the Lions meet Geelong, I unpack Nathan Buckley’s leadership lessons from the Sheargold stage. Check your state. Hand over trust. Honour different prep. Guard your energy. Make purpose visible. These habits win more than games. They build teams that believe.
Unreasonable Hospitality: Leadership Lessons from Will Guidara
What can real estate leaders — and leaders across every industry — learn from the former co-owner of the world’s top restaurant?
In this edition of The Future Fit Leadership Edit, I reflect on the powerful leadership insights shared by Will Guidara, author of Unreasonable Hospitality and the visionary who helped elevate Eleven Madison Park to #1 in the world.
Guidara’s approach to leadership is rooted in presence, generosity, and personalisation. He shows us that culture is shaped in the smallest details, hospitality is a strategy not a department, and truly future-fit leaders empower their teams to go above and beyond.
If you’re building a high-performing team, leading through change, or rethinking client experience — this is a masterclass in human-centred leadership.
