Leadership in Action: How High-Performance Teams Lead and Perform

12 Jan 2026

What does leadership really look like when it matters most? Step inside the world of high-performance teams and discover how leadership drives results, not just in titles, but in actions, decisions, and moments that define success.

Join the Edinburgh Rugby Business Club on Wednesday 28 January for an evening of insight, networking, conversation and connection, featuring two brilliant panels:

Edinburgh Rugby Players Panel: Hear from members of the Edinburgh Rugby’s team on how leadership operates on the pitch – how different roles and styles come together, how teams adapt under pressure, and what it takes to perform at the highest level.
Business Panel: Gain practical perspectives from:
- John Cox, Managing Director, Cox & Co
- Martin Osler, Chief People Officer, Johnston Carmichael
- Jude Lean, Senior Manager, Talent & Learning, Johnston Carmichael

Discover how leadership translates into business, from decision-making and accountability to creating teams that consistently perform and thrive.

Across both panels, the discussion will explore:

How leadership is shared and demonstrated at every level
The behaviours and decisions that drive high performance
Translating lessons from elite sport into everyday business practice

Network, connect and learn:

Enjoy welcome drinks, bowl food, and plenty of opportunities to network with players, business leaders, fellow attendees, and Business Club members throughout the evening.
