That’s the question at the heart of our 2025 edition of Face-2-Face. It's also one explored courageously by more than 20 contributors who presented at our six Chapter Summits.
Anchored in the theme Make Tomorrow: Creating the Future Together, this year’s edition is a collective reflection on where our profession is heading — and the capabilities we must strengthen to meet that future with confidence.
Inside, you’ll discover:
➕ How shifting parent expectations are reshaping Admissions, and why the next era of enrolment success depends on more human-centred, tech-supported experiences.
➕ The rising importance of Community Engagement, with contributors sharing strategies for building belonging in increasingly time-poor and digitally distracted school communities.
➕ New thinking in Fundraising, including the role of stewardship, behavioural science and purpose-driven storytelling in cultivating long-term generosity.
➕ What modern Marketing & Communications must deliver in an era defined by trust, personalisation and brand consistency across every touchpoint.
➕ Leadership insights on navigating complexity, empowering teams and building cultures where Advancement professionals can thrive.
➕ Emerging priorities in People & Culture, including capability growth, wellbeing, and preparing our profession for the opportunities and risks of AI.

This edition is a testament to the experts, thinkers and leaders across Australasia who are elevating our profession and generously sharing their insights to help others grow.
If you’re looking for fresh ideas, practical inspiration or a renewed sense of purpose for the year ahead, I warmly encourage you to explore the 2025 edition.
Here’s to the people shaping tomorrow, and to the work we will continue to create together.
