Speaking Topics Include

3-Tiered Leadership
Aim: To provide leaders and mentors with the strategies needed to lead themselves and others in a way that is productive, ethical and sustainable. Leading ‘beyond rank’ and influencing on three tiers – i.e. peers, subordinates and superiors – is a consistent hallmark of an effective leader. Built on the foundation that all effective leadership begins with self-leadership, 3-Tiered Leadership acknowledges that good leaders require more than a title, a qualification or a certain number of years’ service. With this reality in mind, 3-Tiered Leadership challenges participants to re-evaluate their assumptions about leadership while simultaneously equipping them with practical techniques needed to make a positive difference.

7 Secrets for Dealing with People – communication skills for overcoming objections, resolving conflict and improving cooperation - Keynote or Workshop
Most people, at least most reasonable people, don't want to deal with someone who is difficult. And yet, difficult people exist. They exist at work, at home and within teams. Wouldn't it be great to be able to deal with difficult people under your terms? Imagine if you could communicate in a way that overcame objections, resolved conflict and improved cooperation. Well, you can.

One Step Ahead- Keynote

One Step Ahead brings to life Rob’s autobiography, Waveman, which Peter FitzSimons of the Sydney Morning Herald described as ‘A tour de force!’

With a message that crosses industries and demographics, One Step Ahead uses humour and high levels of audience engagement to demonstrate that effective leaders don’t have to be the smartest person in the room . . . they just have to be smart enough not to let their ego get in the way of a good result.

Resilience Rules – The Key to Long-term Sustainability - Workshop

Resilience, i.e. the ability to recover from or adjust quickly to misfortune or change, is a consistent hallmark of outstanding leaders. At a group level, resilience is also a key attribute of high-performance teams. Whether it involves staying focused during a difficult conversation or keeping your cool when circumstances seem beyond your control, resilience is the key to long-term sustainability – in business and in life.

Resilience Rules examines the physiology of stress while exploring the premise that leadership of others begins with leadership of self.

 Stagecraft of Success – Moving from Average to Excellent - Workshop

Few things will impact your career more quickly than your ability (or inability) to speak in public. Unfortunately, too many people focus on the wrong things when delivering a speech. Common errors include: reading a typed speech out loud or believing PowerPoint will engage an audience. Another common error is thinking good content alone is enough to result in a good presentation. Of course good content is vital, but it is not enough.

Stagecraft of Success helps experienced and novice presenters to bridge the gap between a speech that is average and one that is excellent.

Less is More – Writing Strategies for Busy Leaders - Workshop

Writing is comparable to chess: the pieces represent the alphabet; the board represents the structure (grammar, punctuation, etc.). Once you understand the basics, chess – like writing – isn’t difficult. To play well, however, is another matter altogether. Many leaders, including senior executives, struggle to write well. It’s not a lack of intelligence that holds them back. It’s a lack of tactical know-how, and a lack of time.

Less is More examines writing within the context of leadership. Simple, practical and easy to apply, these strategies will benefit anyone who writes to inform or influence.
