iTnews Executive Retreat – Security Leaders Edition - VIC

Security leaders operate in one of the most demanding roles in technology. Between navigating an evolving threat landscape, managing organisational risk and leading high-performing teams, there is little opportunity to step back, reflect and connect with peers facing the same challenges.

Recognising the value of dedicated time for leadership and peer discussion, iTnews has launched the Executive Retreat – Security Leaders Edition. Taking place on 26–27 November at RACV Goldfields Resort in Creswick, Victoria, this exclusive overnight retreat will bring together a curated group of senior technology and security executives from end-user organisations for two days of leadership discussions, peer networking and restorative experiences.

A different kind of leadership event

Unlike a traditional conference, the iTnews Executive Retreat has been designed to remove participants from the pressures of the office and create space for meaningful discussion, reflection and connection.

The programme explores the realities of modern security leadership, with sessions focused on:

• Leading security teams in an increasingly complex environment
• Building resilient, high-performing cultures
• Managing executive wellbeing and avoiding burnout
• Sharing practical experiences with peers facing similar challenges
• Building trusted relationships that continue beyond the retreat

Hosted by iTnews Publishing Director Velvet-Belle Templeman, the retreat will feature leadership discussions and peer conversations, with additional speakers to be announced.

More than networking

Alongside the leadership programme, delegates will experience a carefully curated mix of premium dining, hosted activities and relaxed networking at RACV Goldfields Resort.

From a gourmet VIP lunch and afternoon activities to locally sourced cheese and drinks on the putting green, an evening dining experience and relaxed post-dinner networking, the programme is designed to create the space for genuine conversations and connections that rarely happen in traditional event environments.

The following morning, delegates will come together for breakfast and reflections, providing an opportunity to consolidate the conversations and insights from the retreat before returning to Melbourne.

An intentionally limited experience

Attendance is intentionally limited to ensure every delegate has the opportunity to contribute, connect and build valuable relationships with their peers.

The retreat is designed for senior technology and security leaders looking to step away from the demands of the day-to-day, gain fresh perspectives on leadership and connect with others navigating the same challenges.

If you're looking to pause, recharge and engage in candid conversations about the realities of modern security leadership, this is an opportunity not to miss.

The iTnews Executive Retreat – Security Leaders Edition takes place on 26–27 November at RACV Goldfields Resort, Creswick, Victoria.
