Strong core values make difficult decisions easier.

In this clip from 2026, Olympic Gold Medallist Steve Ho**er explores how values shape performance, behaviour and decision-making under pressure.

He reflects on a few simple questions:
“Who are you? What do you want? Are you in control?”
“What do you value and what excites you?”

"I’m going to worry about that tomorrow."💡

In this clip from 2026, Steve Ho**er and Ash Bent share how delaying a problem can often bring perspective and clarity.

The conversation also explores the idea of "regulate before you operate" - the importance of pausing and processing before taking action.

This marks the next phase for Power Retail and Retail Global 📢

Retail Global has built a reputation as an energetic and community-driven business, bringing the industry together through events, connections and shared experiences.

Power Retail has become a trusted source of retail news, insights and thought leadership for Australia's retail community.

Now... we're bringing those strengths together 💪

While both brands will retain their distinct identities, we're creating more opportunities for our partners to engage with retailers year-round through events, content, thought leadership, executive networking and industry connections.

More touchpoints. More opportunities to contribute to industry conversations. More ways to connect with the retail community.

Watch Dylan explain how we're building a stronger, more connected retail ecosystem.

Wednesday morning and the Retail Fest comedown is officially here.

The group chats have gone quiet.
The out of office replies are off.
And everyone’s back pretending to answer emails like they didn’t spend the last week on the Gold Coast making deals, sharing ideas and running on caffeine and adrenaline.

Retail Fest 2026 was a reminder of how powerful this industry is when people get in the same room.

Over the past few days we saw retailers, brands, suppliers and industry leaders come together to have real conversations about growth, innovation, AI, customer experience, leadership and where retail is heading next. But more importantly, we saw genuine relationships being built everywhere you looked.

To every speaker who shared their story, every delegate who travelled in, every exhibitor who brought the energy, and every sponsor and partner who helped make the week possible — thank you.

Events like this only work because of the people behind them. The support from the retail community continues to grow every year and we never take that for granted.

Now it’s time to turn the inspiration into action.

See you all again next year.
