The 2024 World Business Forum Sydney, taking place at the ICC Sydney on 13th & 14th November, will be headlined by one of the greatest tennis players in history, Andre Agassi.
Known for his incredible achievements on the court, including eight Grand Slam titles and a former world #1 ranking, Agassi will share his insights on high performance and resilience with over 2,000 senior executives attending the event.
Agassi’s story goes beyond tennis. As a philanthropist and founder of the Andre Agassi Foundation for Education, his life’s work has been dedicated to providing educational opportunities to underserved children.
While his bestselling autobiography, Open, gives a candid reflection on his career, struggles, and personal growth, offering a unique perspective on leadership, perseverance, and the power of purpose.
The 2024 World Business Forum Sydney, recognised as the Meeting Point for Senior Executives, will gather global business leaders to explore the theme "Purpose PLUS," delving into how purpose-driven leadership can foster credibility, resilience, and long-term sustainability within organisations.
