Canva. David Jones. Your business could be next.
November 5, 20261,271 jobs gone at Canva. David Jones reportedly fighting for survival.
Two of Australia’s best-known businesses. Two very different situations. But one very powerful message for every business owner.
THE BUSINESS WORLD IS CHANGING — AND IT IS CHANGING FAST.
Canva, an Australian success story valued at billions, has announced it is cutting approximately 22% of its workforce as it restructures and prepares for the next chapter.
David Jones, an Australian retail institution, is reportedly facing serious financial difficulties, including unpaid rent and the possibility of administration.
Think about that for a moment.
If businesses of this size, with their resources, experience and management teams, are facing these challenges, what makes the rest of us think we can continue doing business the way we always have?
The reality is that running a business is becoming harder.
Costs are increasing. Margins are being squeezed. Finding and retaining good people is difficult. AI is transforming industries. Competition is relentless.
And the pace of change is only accelerating.
But here is what I find most interesting.
While some businesses will struggle, others will absolutely thrive.
They will embrace AI. They will build better systems. They will develop stronger leaders. They will understand their numbers, improve their profitability, generate more cash and create businesses that don’t depend entirely on their owners.
The difference will be the decisions they make TODAY. That is exactly why we created Global Business Camps (GBC).
From 1–3 March 2027 on the Gold Coast, business owners and their key people will come together for three days to work ON their businesses, not just IN them.
Three days focused on practical strategies to:
- Make more money and improve profitability.
- Use AI to create efficiencies and gain a competitive advantage.
- Build systems that allow the business to grow.
- Develop better leaders and stronger teams.
- Improve sales, cash flow and financial performance.
- Create a business that can thrive regardless of economic conditions.
This isn’t another conference where you sit and listen to motivational speakers.
This is about changing the future of YOUR business.
And I don’t just want business owners there. I want their key people there too.
Because there is little point in an owner returning with great ideas if the people responsible for implementing them haven’t been part of the journey.
We already have over 100 people registered, including business owners who have attended multiple camps and continue to return with their teams.
NOW ASK YOURSELF ONE QUESTION.
If spending three days at GBC helped you increase your profitability by just 5%, improve your cash flow, retain one key employee or identify one opportunity that transforms your business, what would that be worth to you?
Ask yourself what it could cost you NOT to attend.
My message is simple.
If you are serious about your business, its future, your employees and your financial independence, attending GBC should be NON-NEGOTIABLE.
You can keep doing what you have always done and hope things improve.
Or you can invest three days in learning how to make your business stronger, more profitable and better prepared for what is coming.
The businesses that succeed tomorrow will be the ones that take action today.
Don’t wait until you are forced to make the difficult decisions.
