What are you looking for?

• A Conference or Seminar Presenter?
• A Trainer or Facilitator?
• Perhaps a Skills Coach?

Well, look no further! I work with all sorts of businesses to help them stay ahead of their competition through improving the productivity of their staff.

I achieve this through raising awareness and understanding of the issues that the business is facing and by providing skills that people can immediately apply to improve their at work relationships and their results.

As you will see, from the rest of my site, I have a wide variety of experience in many fields and this provides me with the flexibility to engage in many business support activities, across a large range of business types, with a high degree of professionalism.

I have made presentations to as few as 2 people and as many as a thousand, from shop floor staff to boardroom executives. I am a fellow of the Australian Institute of Professional Facilitators and an accredited facilitator and coach for the Australian Institute of Management and have negotiated contracts for local, national and multinational companies.

If, after looking over my site, you can see that there is a match with some of my skills and experience where I may be able to help you or you have any questions on how I can help you in your business, please do not hesitate to contact me to get the answers you need.

I work with a wide variety of businesses - from small, independant operators to large corporations and associations. Some of my more recent clients include; The Australian Institute of Management, Apprenticeships Queensland, The Cyberinstitute, Conrad Treasury, Education Queensland, Consolidated Plastics (QLD) and Business Seminars Australia. I can step into your world to provide you with professional, expert support in areas concerned with:

Conference, Seminar and Key Note presentations

Increasingly, businesses are engaging the services of professional presenters, speakers and even entertainers, to deliver concise reinforcements of key messages. Traditionally, this is during annual conferences or management meetings. However, there is a growing trend to employ this type of presentation on a more regular basis for 1 hour update style addresses to enhance the effectiveness of training programs, or to focus your people on key issues.

Getting everyone together for these important events is a major investment in both time and money, so you want to make sure that you take full advantage of the opportunity that these gatherings represent.

Let me show you how I can get your key messages across in a way that gets people thinking and, at the same time make your event more memorable!

My presentation topics include:

• Gen Wars
  Understanding the dynamics of the multiple generations in the workplace. How to increase productivity, how to attract the right staff and how to retain staff in increasingly competitive labour markets.
• Time-shifting
  Getting back control over your work and life! How to move from being busy to being productive - without working harder.
• Fire that Customer
  Far too many businesses are dealing with the wrong people. You need to understand who your customers are and how to turn them into raving fans!
• The Truth About Workplace Conflict
  We are forced to work with people that, under normal circumstances, we wouldn’t be caught dead with! How can you do this and still look forward to coming to work? I’ll show you how!

Training

Never before has adequate education in the workplace been so important. In increasingly competitive environments, where change is increasing in pace and complexity, you have to make sure that both yourself and your staff are thoroughly prepared. Training provides this preparation, as well as giving your staff increased confidence, and your business better protection against competition.

I’m not talking just about technical skills - those skills that are required to know how to do the job. I’m talking about people skills. There is no point in having technically proficient people that know how to do their job but don’t understand the impact of their behaviours on everyone else! Far too many businesses are like a battleground where getting things done is almost as painful as extracting teeth!

These unneccessary conflicts are costing you money - from lost productivity, high staff turnover and increased stress levels. This is my area of expertise - showing people how to understand themselves and others and providing them with skills that they can apply to enhance their work relationships - for everyone’s benefit and for a better business bottom line!

I can provide you with tailored training or ready made programs for 1 hour, half day, a full day or longer. Whatever it takes to achieve your objectives.

Topics that I regularly deliver include:

Negotiation, Selling Skills, Leadership, Assertiveness, Customer Service, Strategic Marketing, Conflict Resolution and Communication Skills, to name but a few.

Please don’t think that the investment required for your business training needs to be adequately met isn’t worth it - if you think that education is expensive, just try ignorance and see what that costs you!

Put me to the test…….. you won’t be disappointed!

Stephen Robertson

At 16 Stephen was scared of people and life and disliked himself for it;
from that excellent realisation he focused his life on Personal Development.
After losing both his parents at age 42 he travelled to Italy with a close friend
and returned with a vision of business ownership and Public Speaking as a career.
He now sees his shyness as a blessing that propelled the hammer to
smash his poor self image and now highly values Self Belief and
wants to share the extraordinary feelings with thousands of others.
