"Growth doesn't happen until Safety and Consistency are established"

26 Jun 2026 15:00 | Nicola Davies-Cooke (Administrator)

Our Erina meeting this morning was packed to hear guest speaker Brendan Rogers present on the theme of how being a foster parent taught him key skills for business growth.

Brendan is the founder of Leader By Design, helping business owners build high-performing, self-managing teams. Also a foster parent to 8 children, he's spent years understanding what helps humans grow - and then translated those principles into practical business frameworks used by leaders across Australia.

The stories he shared of a certain "Mr K" were poignant and so relevant to the emotional struggles that many of us have as we attempt to set ourselves up as business owners!

Key messages that Brendan shared include:

  • The principles that help foster children thrive are the same principles that help businesses and leaders grow
  • Growth doesn't happen until safety and consistency are established
  • The 7-Milestone Growth Path works for both business growth (revenue, profit, customers) AND leadership development
  • PEOPLE OS is the operating system that executes the Growth Path

Brendan hosts the High-Impact Leader Podcast and is the creator of the High-Impact Growth Pathâ„¢ and PEOPLE OS frameworks he shared.
