What started as a simple catch up became a 3 hour deep dive into various topics. We only realised how long we had been talking when the restaurant manager reminded us it was the last call for orders.

That is the power of the GBS tribe. When passionate leaders gather, the energy and curiosity take over.

Our huddle explored some of the most relevant topics shaping our industry, including

• AI in Talent Acquisition
• The growing need for Customer Centricity
• Leadership styles for the new generation workforce
• How GBS can deliver real business value
• Driving better outcomes through negotiation
• Career movements and opportunities in GBS
• And yes, even durian… with talk of a possible Durian Farm Tour

Rich conversations, honest sharing and meaningful connections filled the evening. It was inspiring to see leaders show up with openness and a genuine desire to connect, learn and grow together. Thank you to everyone who joined today.

I’m looking forward to the next huddle and who knows maybe a durian-fuelled GBS adventure!
