Live discussions and workshops on growth and international market expansion

The Leadership Collective in partnership with Launch Global hosts a series of live, online discussions and workshops focused on helping leaders grow their organisations and expand into new and international markets.

These sessions are built for leaders dealing with real growth decisions — from scaling teams and entering new regions to navigating operational, people, and leadership challenges that come with expansion.
All events are live and online. Registration is free unless stated otherwise.
