MOMENTUM is RecConnect's 2026 regional event series specifically engineered for recruitment leaders and business owners who are ready to move beyond the "status quo."

This series serves as a strategic incubator, helping agencies bridge the gap between high-volume transactional billing and a sophisticated, scalable, and consultative enterprise. We're talking high performance, proper business development, personal gains, and tech stuff to propel your strategy to the next level.

Through a blend of expert-led workshops, peer-to-peer collaboration, and actionable insights, MOMENTUM addresses the friction points that hold recruitment firms back from their next phase of growth.

  • Building a Performance Environment That Drives Consistent Results
  • Empowering Your Personal Performance to Elite Level

  • Tech Tips & Tricks You Can Do That Will Cost You Nothing

Clair Mohamed, Business Development & Performance Coach


Clair partners with recruitment founders and leadership teams to build performance environments that drive consistent, scalable results.

She combines over two decades of recruitment and L&D experience with a practical, commercially focused approach to developing teams who can think, sell, influence and deliver at a higher level.

Her work goes beyond training. Clair helps define what “good” looks like, strengthens leadership capability, improves decision making, and embeds the habits and standards that turn activity into predictable revenue.

She is known for cutting through complexity, challenging thinking, and helping businesses get more from the teams they already have.



Talk title: From Patchy to Predictable: Building a Performance Environment That Drives Consistent Results

In many recruitment businesses, performance inconsistency isn’t caused by a lack of effort. People are busy, activity is there, but the results remain unpredictable.

This often leads to increased pressure from leadership: more KPIs, more check-ins, and more involvement. Your team’s inconsistency is usually a reflection of how performance is being led, not how hard people are working.

In this session, Clair Mohamed will explore how leaders can create the conditions for more consistent performance across their teams.

You’ll learn:

  • How to shift conversations from activity and updates to performance and decision making
  • How to improve thinking around markets, clients and deals within your team
  • How to define and protect the priorities that actually drive revenue
  • How to build ownership and reduce reliance on the founder or senior leaders
  • How to reset performance quickly before dips become longer-term issues

This is a practical, in-room session focused on real scenarios, not theory.

Ideal for founders, directors and billing managers who want more predictable performance, stronger accountability, and a team that can operate effectively without constant intervention.
