We had the honour of welcoming to the stage the incredible Guenther Steiner, former Team Principal of F1’s Haas team, and Jill Douglas MBE, renowned sports broadcaster, for our second Speakers Breakfast of 2025.

In conversation with Jill, Guenther brought the audience along on his journey from humble beginnings to leading the Haas team’s entry into Formula 1. From embedding and nurturing a shared vision within team environments, to always grasping opportunities with both hands, we were given a valuable glimpse into the principles, experiences and key lessons that got him over life’s finish lines, every step of the way.
