The Leader Speaks: Real Mentors, Not AI
In a time when AI can write you a plan in seconds but cannot teach resilience, purpose, or how to lead when it matters most, The Leader Speaks delivers what only real mentors can: lived experience.
On 26th October 2025 at Werribee Indoor Sports Centre, former Australian cricket captain Aaron Finch and entrepreneur-author Divesh Sareen will share raw, real-world lessons you only get from mentors who have been there and done that.
From the high-pressure pitches of international cricket to the challenges of building businesses and migrant communities, this is about the kind of leadership that doesn’t come from a prompt. It comes from life itself.
Highlights include:
- Once-in-a-lifetime cricket masterclass with Aaron Finch (open to all ages)
- Candid conversations on resilience, purpose, and leading under pressure
- Exhibition showcasing leadership stories across cultures and sectors
- Leadership Awards honouring community change makers
- Networking opportunities with leaders and emerging change makers
- Meet & Greet with Aaron Finch
“This isn’t advice you can ChatGPT or Google. These are the lessons that shape lives.”
