Hack the hustle:
How to scale your company without breaking it
Most companies fail not because of a lack of ideas—but because they fail to execute at scale. Scaling a company is a balancing act between maintaining agility and building structure, and it often feels like trying to steer a rocket mid-launch.
In this talk, entrepreneur expert Stephanie Melodia will show you how to embrace “founder mode” even as your company grows. Drawing from over a decade of experience working with top founders and global brands alike, she’ll reveal how to navigate the chaos of growth, handle uncertainty, and foster a team culture that thrives in fast-paced environments.

Learn actionable frameworks to keep your team agile as you scale.
-
Identify and overcome the growth bottlenecks holding your company back.
-
Master the entrepreneurial mindset needed to navigate complexity.
Creativity is your competitive advantage: How to build teams that innovate
Sometimes the answer is not to simple throw more cash at something. (Just look at Open AI vs DeepSeek... ) In fact, it very rarely is. Creativity is the answer. The only competitive advantage that can’t be outsourced, automated, or replicated. Yet most leaders unknowingly kill creativity in their teams by favouring safe, incremental progress over bold ideas & true innovation.
​
Stephanie Melodia combines insights from top founders and changemakers with actionable strategies to help teams unlock creativity. In this energetic session, you’ll learn how to create an environment where innovation thrives, ideas flow freely, and your team feels empowered to take smart risks.

Identify and eliminate the hidden creativity killers in your organisation.

Gain tools to turn creative ideas into profitable outcomes.
