Bring a book. Share an idea. Leave with a reading list and a few new connections.

Got a book on your bedside table that's been reshaping how you think about culture, leadership, or people at work? Bring it along.

The BYO Book Club is a relaxed evening for Brisbane's people-focused professionals to swap reads, share insights, and connect over the ideas shaping their thinking.

Grab a drink, help yourself to some nibbles, and join the conversation.

How it works If you've brought a book, you'll have a few minutes to share it with the group using three simple questions:

• What's it about in one sentence?

• What's one idea that genuinely shifted your thinking?

• Who in this room do you think should read it and why?

No book? No problem. Come curious - your questions and reactions are just as valuable as any recommendation.

Everyone leaves with a shared reading list from the evening.

This is a space for: culture, leadership, teams, personal development, and organisational development reads — broadly interpreted and warmly welcomed.

What's provided: Food and non-alcoholic beverages will be covered to keep the conversation flowing. Please note that alcoholic beverages will be available for purchase separately at the bar.

What to bring: A book you've read recently (optional but encouraged!)
