Gracie Barra Oceania

Meet Arthur Thibault at Leader Con 2026

What can a world-class hotel teach us about leadership, operations, and member experience?

Arthur Thibault brings years of experience from some of Australia’s leading 5-star hotels, including Swissôtel Sydney and Sofitel Darling Harbour, where he led teams of up to 80 people.

At Leader Con 2026, Arthur will share practical insights from the hospitality industry on creating exceptional customer experiences, developing high-performing teams, and building operational excellence.

If we want to build world-class schools, we must learn from world-class organisations.

Some of the best moments on the mats are the ones shared with the team.

Training hard, learning together, and still finding time for a laugh in between rounds.

That’s the Gracie Barra spirit.

The GBF Panel will be a roundtable conversation with women who are making a real difference in Jiu-Jitsu across Oceania.

This special session will focus on the women’s movement on the mats, creating space for meaningful discussion, leadership, development, and the continued growth of female participation across our schools.

It will also help school owners see GBF as more than a programme. But as an opportunity to build stronger, safer, and more welcoming schools for women and families.

Four teammates. One extraordinary milestone. 🖤
