Leading The Business Bounce Back

Leading the Business Bounce Back The Advantage Goes to Those Who Lead It A business's ability to bounce back is rarely about the market disruption itself. It tends to be about the leadership behind it. On 29 October, The Global Collective Network is bringing together founders and senior business leaders for an in-person session on what it takes to lead that bounce back, with confidence, momentum, and a clear growth plan. This is not about wait-and-see thinking. It's about being part of the network of business leaders who are already positioning their businesses for what's ahead. Expect direct, senior-level conversation on leadership, momentum, and opportunity, from people who have built and led businesses through exactly this kind of market disruption before, including practical thinking on where to invest, how to keep your best people, and how to move with confidence when the picture is still unclear. Speakers Spencer Lodge — Built and sold multiple businesses over a 30-year career in sales, insurance, and financial services, and now hosts Made in Dubai, one of the region's most-listened-to business podcasts. He knows what it takes to lead a team through a downturn and come out stronger, because he's done it more than once. Terry Woodley — Founded Acoulite in Dubai in 2005 and grew it into a $30 million business with a client list including Microsoft, Google, and Deloitte, before steering it through the market disruption of 2020 without losing the business. Nearly two decades of watching the GCC market shift and adapting to stay ahead. Raja W. Abuljebain — Took Essentially from a small, local juice brand to a name now served on every Emirates flight worldwide. His story is proof that disciplined, engineer-level precision, applied to the right opportunity, can turn a niche local business into a nationally recognised one.
