Ryde NFP Leaders Connect

Ryde NFP Leaders Connect

Tue, Aug 4, 12:00 AM
From Transformational Leaders Collective
4.5

Purpose Without Profit Isn't Sustainable. Profit Without Purpose Isn't Meaningful. For years we've been told there's a choice. You can build a profitable business, or you can build a purpose-driven one. This isn't true. The businesses creating the greatest impact today understand something different. Purpose gives you direction. Profit gives you sustainability. One without the other rarely lasts. It shouldn't be so hard to do good, but that's exactly what it feels like running a Not-for-Profit (NFP). In a world full of options and information, it’s easy to feel like there are too many fish in the sea - each swimming past in a blur. **NFP Ocean** is here to make impact easier! We’re bringing together Local NFP Community leaders like you, to enjoy networking with your peers to build new relationships, open opportunities for collaboration, and to celebrate the launch of **NFP Ocean** and our Community Connection program of events. There will be a great guest speaker panel talking about the 8 Key Things your NFP needs to Thrive. Be part of shaping the future for NFPs, participate in our live polls and interactive panel. It's a chance to: * Strengthen your local connections * Gain practical insights you can apply immediately * Meet other leaders navigating similar challenges * Be part of shaping a more connected and supported NFP community Do you believe businesses should actively pursue purpose alongside profit, or should they remain separate? Whether you're a business leader, consultant, technology provider, accountant, lawyer, marketer, or an NFP leader, this conversation is relevant to you. We look forward to meeting you there and build something meaningful together. RSVP now to secure your spot (seats are limited). [https://rydeconnect.nfpocean.com/](https://rydeconnect.nfpocean.com/) Morning Tea, Nibbles, will be provided. **ABOUT** ***Kerrie Sheaves*** is the Co-Founder and CEO of NFP Ocean, an online ecosystem empowering not-for-profits - connecting them with the resources, support, and trusted service providers they need to thrive. An experienced NFP Board member and current Member Elected Councillor for BusinessNSW, with a demonstrated 30+ yr career working in major corporates, with small business owners and leading NFP organisations. Skilled in Business Strategy, Operations Management, Grants, Sales & Marketing and Risk Management. ***NFP Ocean***, [https://www.nfpocean.com/](https://www.nfpocean.com/) Connecting Not-For-Profits with an Ocean of Opportunities.

The New Blueprint of Leadership for Women in Business

The New Blueprint of Leadership for Women in Business

Wed, Aug 5, 1:00 AM
From Transformational Leaders Collective
4.5

The old models of leadership are no longer enough. Many capable women in business are not held back by a lack of skill, ambition, or experience, but by inherited ways of leading that no longer fit the complexity of who they are, what they carry, and how they are being called to lead today. Leadership can often feel like a constant balancing act between confidence and self-doubt, strength and softness, visibility and authenticity, carrying responsibility while trying not to carry it all. This 4-part masterclass series is designed for women in business who are ready to lead with more confidence, clarity, and influence without feeling like they need to become someone they are not. Hosted by Western Sydney Startup Hub in partnership with Carole Issa, Founder of Leadership Activators and creator of the Active Leader Pathway, this series blends practical leadership tools, deeper self-awareness, and real-world strategies to help you strengthen how you lead from the inside out. Whether you are a founder, business owner, startup leader, consultant, or ambitious professional, this series will help you build stronger leadership foundations that create authentic influence, clearer communication, and more sustainable impact. **This Series Is For You If You:** * Are a founder, business owner, startup leader, consultant, or ambitious professional * Are excellent at what you do, but know that modern leadership requires more than technical skill * Find yourself carrying too much, overthinking decisions, or avoiding certain conversations * Want to lead with more confidence and influence without changing who you are * Want practical leadership tools that feel authentic, grounded, and relevant to today’s business world * Are looking to connect with other women who are building, leading, and growing in business **Event Details** 📍 Western Sydney Startup Hub 📅 Wednesdays: 5th, 12th, 19th & 26th August 2026 (4 sessions) ⏰ 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM **Your Investment** $47 per person for the full 4-part masterclass series. Your ticket includes all four sessions, practical leadership tools, light refreshments, and opportunities to connect with other women in business in a relaxed networking setting. **About Carole Issa** Carole Issa is the Founder of Leadership Activators and creator of the Active Leader Pathway, a practical leadership framework designed to help leaders strengthen emotional intelligence, communication, trust, and influence. Through her work, Carole helps business owners, founders, managers, and professionals lead with greater confidence, clarity, and impact without feeling like they need to abandon who they are in the process. 🎟️ Register to attend: [https://events.humanitix.com/the-new-blueprint-of-leadership-for-women-in-business-at-wssh](https://events.humanitix.com/the-new-blueprint-of-leadership-for-women-in-business-at-wssh)
