Step Up, Lead Boldly, and Transform Your Leadership

27 February 2026
Work Club Olderfleet
477 Collins St, Melbourne
Step into the room designed to move you.
You’re ambitious
but something is pulling you back.
Maybe you’re a leader under pressure. Maybe you're a high-performing professional tired of waiting for “next year.”
Or maybe you’re someone with a dream you’ve been sitting on - a business, a project, a career move, and you know it’s time.
And your stalling, maybe for months, maybe for years and you don't know why. Either way, you can feel your momentum slipping. And you’re ready for more.
The truth? Most people aren’t missing capability or skill.
And they are not missing information or knowledge.
They are missing NEW knowledge and NEW information - the kind that only comes from deep self awareness that unlocks and unblocks.
They’re missing capacity, conviction, and the courage to start.
Here’s why.
What's really holding you back in your career, leadership, or personal ambitions
Today, we’re all battling the same silent force:
Staying quiet when we should speak up
Waiting for permission
Holding back our ideas or potential
Playing small to stay safe
Putting our dreams on hold
Prioritising the needs and expectations of others rather than our own
Making ourselves uncomfortable so that others feel comfortable being around us
Letting fear of failure or success override bold action
Indulging in old behaviours and habits that sabotage and undermine our efforts to succeed
Feeling overwhelmed and burnout by the workload, the metrics and the office politics
I know this deeply.
As a Sri Lankan Tamil migrant, founder, ex-professional dancer, CEO, and speaker - someone who’s rebuilt herself more than once, I know what it means to back yourself when everything and everyone around you is telling you not to.
We’re not the problem. And yet, sometimes we are. The real enemy? Inertia.
Our brains are wired to keep us in our comfort zone. To maintain the status quo.
Our job is to breakthrough that biology. Because inertia can be overcome once we learn how to get out of our own way and truly back ourselves.
And once we do, we take our spot in the world.
This is not a conference.
This is not another training program. This is not another “feel good” session that evaporates by Monday.
This is a high-voltage intervention designed to activate:
Leaders wanting to shift how they lead to shift culture and results
Professionals wanting to level up
Ambitious individuals ready to start, grow, or change direction
Anyone who knows they’re meant for more
This is a curated, intimate and exclusive room facilitated by Winitha Bonney OAM - a change agent, and the expert people trust and call when they’re ready to step up and achieve real results that matter. When they need help to breakthrough the highly sensitive, difficult and hard situations and the person organisations and leaders trust when they want to come out stronger and better, not broken and burnout.
Whether you’re leading a team or leading your own life and career this experience will move you into bold action to transform you from the inside out.
A Winitha Bonney OAM
Leadership & Life Activation Experience
For leaders and individuals ready for real change and real results.
What You’ll Walk Away With
Whether you come as a leader, a professional, or an individual with a big goal, you’ll leave with:
Clarity on what’s holding you back and what needs to shift
Courage to take action even when you feel unready
Tools to build momentum, cut friction, and get unstuck
A roadmap to step into your next move in leadership, career, or business
A renewed identity grounded in agency, accountability, and self-belief
This is not just inspiration. It’s activation with leveraged momentum and strategic cut through.
If you want 2026 to look different to 2025, you belong in this room.
Because a new you isn't about a new year.
It's a new strategy underpinned by new actions, new behaviours and a mindset thats been rewired.
If you want a different outcome, it will take a different strategy and different actions.
This is the rewiring you never knew that you always needed.
