About
Internationally renown Speaker, Facilitator and Author
In a continuously creative world we all need to become Change Ready. This will take a new way of navigating, creating and adapting.
It’s why I have developed a new concept that I call Switch Thinking
It’s fast, easy and practical. Switch Thinking can be used with other humans and AI.
My speaking, facilitation, mentoring and training projects takes me all around Australia with a particular focus on Asia.
A Phd in Organisational Creativity
My PhD is in Organisational Creativity (UWS) as well as a MBA (UNE) and B.Bus (UTS).
My official thesis was ‘Designing a continuously creative organisation’ which was informed by interviewing over 80 leaders from 50 different organisations (profit and non-profit).
In addition, I was a part-time lecturer at UTS for over 15 years.
Former Marketing Director
Before establishing my own business I was a Marketing Director at American Express as well as a Product Manager at Citibank and Dunlop Slazenger.
I have also worked as a senior leader in advertising, direct marketing and management consulting across a wide variety of categories and industries.
My clients include big and small brands from every industry and category across Australia and Asia.
International Author
I have written 3 books that have been published (by Allen & Unwin) in 9 countries. These are:
- The Idea Generator
- The Idea Accelerator
- Speed Thinking.
I have also written over 50 articles in various magazines across Australia and Asia on creativity, innovation, speed thinking, reinvention and disruption. Here are a few of these articles.
My other passions
I played 1st grade cricket and soccer and learned Kung Fu for over 10 years.
This has given me a glimpse of what it takes to unlock higher individual & team performance.
Most of all I would like to help you and your team get Change Ready.
