Introducing Revved Write-Offs
Wednesday 10 June | 6:30 - 8:00 | QB Studios Ponsonby

Kiwis don't talk about failure. We should. Real founders. Real disasters. Real lessons.

You know the phrase. That year was a write off. That partnership was a write off. That whole chapter, the one you still cringe at, was a write off. Most leaders quietly bury those. Revved. Write Offs is the room where New Zealand's leaders stand up and say it properly. Three speakers. One genuine write off each. A business that failed. A decision that cost them. A year they'd call without hesitation.

Each talk is pecha kucha format: twenty slides, twenty seconds a slide. The clock runs automatically and it doesn't stop for anyone. Six minutes and forty seconds to name the loss, tell the truth about what happened, and call it.

Our first guests include:
Rochelle Moffitt - When fuck yes should have been a fuck no. Rochelle is a fuck yes person. Always has been. She'll back herself into a business, a partnership, a decision that raises eyebrows, and go anyway. It's not her life they're living. She doesn't need their judgement. She's never taken their opinion. Most of the time that's her superpower. Sometimes it's the most expensive thing about her. Here are the times the fuck yes should have been a fuck no, and what it cost her to find out.

James Boult - Founder of Gravity, the innovation venture studio behind some of New Zealand's most ambitious enterprise builds. He's the person organisations call when an idea needs to survive contact with reality. He knows where the money gets wasted, where decisions go sideways, and where the bodies are buried. He's here to talk about his own write off, and help you change yours.
