Building Winning Teams

For more than two decades, Darren was the driving force behind the culture and high-performance environment that shaped the New Zealand All Blacks into the world’s most successful international sports team.

His session will explore what it really takes to build winning teams — not just in sport, but in business and leadership.

From culture and purpose through to values-driven leadership and high-performance habits, Darren will share the philosophy and behind-the-scenes insights that helped shape one of the most iconic teams in sporting history.

It’s going to be an incredibly powerful session for anyone leading people — or aspiring to.
