A moment that meant everything. 💛 Tonight we celebrated two extraordinary women - Jodie and Michelle - as Life Members of SBMAQ.

Life Membership is our highest honour, reserved for those who have given so much of themselves to our community over the years. Hearing Jodie and Michelle reflect on what it means to them left us all a little teary. 🥹 Their dedication, leadership and the countless lives they've touched along the way are woven into the very fabric of SBMAQ.

To Jodie and Michelle - thank you for your years of service, your heart, and your unwavering commitment to our community. This recognition could not be more deserved. 🌟

Move over, Michael Bublé! 🎤✨ Stephen from Sponsorship Ready took to the mic and absolutely brought the house down.

Last year he earned himself the nickname "Michael Bublé"... this year he's back and better than ever - a true SBMAQ crooner in the making. 😎🎶 Is there anything the Sponsorship Ready team can't do?!

Encore, please! 👏 Who else was living for this performance? Drop a 🎶 in the comments 👇

And that's a wrap from our brilliant MC, Daniel Murray! 🎤 Thank you for guiding us through SBMAQ 2026 with warmth, wit and wisdom.

Daniel left us with a message that hits home for every business manager: empathy isn't soft — it's strategic. 💛 Our roles are so much more than budgets and compliance; we're the people who hold schools together, supporting staff, families and students behind the scenes. Leading with empathy is what turns a good business manager into a great one — building trust, easing pressure, and creating communities where people feel genuinely seen and valued.

Thank you, Daniel, for reminding us why the human side of what we do matters most. 🙌

What's your biggest takeaway on leading with empathy? Share it below 👇
