Über uns
I'm passionate about stopping people from having one of "those days" in (or out) of the office, and helping people and businesses who do good in the world, do even better.
I'm the creator of the annual #CULTUREConnectives Immersions, the monthly #CULTUREBites lunchtime immersions, the #CULTURECollab and Culture Incorporated (www.cultureincorporated.com.au).
How do I see the world? There are 3 elements that make businesses really work. The first is creating an intentional culture in which your team thrives. The second is a diverse team with the attitudes, attributes, and mindset to thrive in that culture. The third is the right environment; how we engage remotely or in the physical space, as well as the supporting processes, systems and way of doing things.
The old paradigm is that we should look after the shareholders, then clients, customers and then the "staff"*. That should be tipped on its head; look after your team as an asset not a cost. Attract, retain and inspire the team you deserve, a team who will look after your clients and customers - your bottom line will love you for it. (*so not a fan of that word!)
It’s our performance, not our knowledge, that drives the bottom line. Products & services drive financials. Culture does too.
I'm an international executive with over 25 years’ experience working with blue chip companies like Avis car rental, Cendant (owners of brands such as Century 21, Howard Johnson, Wyndham, Budget car rental), and the British Government and count retail banks and insurance co's internationally - NatWest, LTSB and RBS in the UK and ANZ, CBA and Visa Consulting in Australia, amongst my clients. I'm also a master coach, behavioural specialist, and sought after MC, facilitator, trainer and keynote speaker.
With a background in PR, event management, international exhibitions and latterly client management and development, I have also specialised in multi-million dollar consultative sales and the creation of new divisions.
I use my skills and this experience to consult, educate, coach and mentor globally.

How can you deliver a motivational speech that resonates with a large audience?
Understanding that the brain is constantly scanning for danger and trying to conserve energy can help structure your talk. People generally remember the beginning (Primacy) and the ending (Recency), so starting with "shock" or "awe" grabs their attention. Or if you already have rapport, sliding straight into "why" works. Why will listening to you be worth their while? What's in it for them? Why are you, the speaker, here? Once the audience understands that, they can then relax into receptive mode. Employing a structure like Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey helps people see themselves in the stories, and understanding people's learning styles can also help by drawing your audience in and zooming out again. That way, your messages land.

How can you deliver a motivational speech that resonates with a large audience?
If you don't know why you're on the stage speaking, neither will your audience. Clarity of purpose is key. I will ask myself: If nothing else, what is one thing I want people to walk away with and remember? What do I want them to do because of hearing me talk? And most importantly, how do I want them to feel? Starting with the end in mind makes structuring and delivering a compelling motivational talk much easier and, as a result, more compelling for the audience.

How can you deliver a motivational speech that resonates with a large audience?
I learned the "know your audience" lesson the hard way when, years ago, I delivered my rather irreverent resilience talk with all my trade mark high energy and vulnerability on full display to a group of university deans. I gave them life lessons neatly wrapped in stories. What they wanted were facts, stats and peer-reviewed study references. It's unlikely that your talk will "land" with everyone in your audience, but knowing who you are addressing and why they are there can give you a head start. What is one thing that the audience would benefit from? I've found it useful if you can find that out from the session attendees rather than just the organisers. With that knowledge, you can frame the talk and tailor your delivery accordingly.

People who become homeless often experience it as a result of domestic violence, breakdown of the family unit, or when their access to regular income was cut off. Housing affordability is in the news right now, and behind those headlines are real people, doing it really tough.
To aid awareness and to generate funds for the estimated 116,000 Australians - of which 25% are women and children - who have few alternatives to sleeping on the streets each night, I will be sleeping on two pieces of cardboard on what is billed to be the coldest night of the year.
For those who can't join us sleeping rough, then a donation/sponsorship would be very gratefully received, not just by us, but also by those who it ultimately helps.
