London Seminar Programme 2026

Greg Savage draws on five decades in recruitment - building and scaling companies to over $100 million, taking one from a five-person start-up to an ASX listing - to share the mistakes that shaped his career. In this candid session, Greg reflects on the errors, misjudgements and blind spots that taught him the most, from early naivety to later complacency, and the harder lessons rooted in personality and behaviour. He shows how failure never defines you - your response does. Through stories from his life as a recruiter, leader, manager, business owner and advisor, Greg reveals how self-awareness, accountability and adaptation became his greatest assets. Delivered in his trademark direct, authentic style, this session offers practical insights on recruitment, leadership, management and life, all viewed through the lens of what he got wrong and how he learned to get better.
