Newcastle Business Club is excited to welcome John Mullen, Chairman of Qantas, Brambles Ltd and Treasury Wine Estates, for a keynote exploring the evolving role of regional partnerships in Australia’s aviation and business landscape. As Qantas continues to expand its services at Newcastle Airport and strengthen its connections between regional centres and global hubs, John will share insights into the value and potential of regional business communities like Newcastle.
Drawing from recent years of transformation, John will reflect on the challenges Qantas has faced—including public scrutiny, operational disruptions, and leadership transitions—and how the organisation is working to rebuild trust with customers and stakeholders.
The keynote will also delve into leadership and culture, highlighting the importance of ethical governance and the company’s renewed focus on fostering a customer-first, employee-respecting environment. Attendees will gain valuable lessons in leadership, resilience, and the power of purposeful partnerships.
