Fresh Speakers - Fresh Content
Who's on stage at Convention 2023?
Over 40 Speakers with ‘Fresh’ Content that’s never been seen before at Convention. We’ll be exploring four elements that are critical to taking a fresh approach to our speaking work from 2023 and into the future: Fresh Content, Fresh Business, Fresh Focus and Fresh Approach. Make a fresh start to 2023 and join us in Melbourne in March.

Helen has been through it… She played the matrix at full speed for 53 years; traveling around the world, to build her empire— even being awarded Hypnotist of the Year in 2018. She worked for years as a hypnotherapist before founding HypnoFit, the world’s first global hypnotherapy clinic. After opening 18 clinics in the US., UK., Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, and authoring her published book, “Mindset Dominance,” she was tired. She worked hard. She was always exhausted & striving for more. Until she realised that everything she really wanted – she already had! So from that day, I made a change. I reclaimed my beautiful birth name Eleni (light) and stepped into a new, more evolved version of me.carousel:

The ensuing 19 years presented her with challenges such as being diagnosed as going blind, being found to have an extremely rare genetic disorder with devastating consequences, giving birth to her son who suffers from Cystic Fibrosis and two broken marriages. Things that individually would break most people but Reggie still greets every day with a beaming smile and infectious personality. It took 19 years for her to be invited back into the Big Brother house and naturally she won it – AGAIN!Scott Stein

Scott Stein
Scott has worked with thousands of leaders around the world helping them to become better leaders by fast-tracking their thinking and their approach with people. Scott is a highly sought after international speaker and mentor who has worked with a range of global and Australian businesses. He has a Master’s Degree in Communications and taught Communication and Public Speaking at Central Michigan University. In addition, Scott received the Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) designation from Professional Speakers Association, which recognises him as one of the top speakers across the globe. Scott is the author of four books, his most recent titled: ‘Leadership Hacks’ that aims to equip leaders with effective and fast track strategies to boost impact and results as a leader. In ‘Leadership Hacks’ Scott identifies possible distractions that could be slowing leaders down and provides an expansive toolkit to help in streamlining delegation skills, fast-tracking productivity and re-routing meetings so that leaders come away with more productive outcomes. So, if you are a CEO, aspiring CEO or just somebody who would like to improve their leadership skills and effectiveness, you should be adding Scott’s new book Leadership Hacks to your bookshelf. Scott also advises individuals and organisations pulling from his Native American heritage and wilderness survival training. Scott’s desire to help others is inherent. As one of the founding board members for the charity Hands Across the Water, assisting children who lost their families in the 2004 tsunami, it is within his nature to support and encourage those who need guidance in finding their path. Scott also guides a number of Senior Leaders and Business owners whom he mentors on a regular basis. Despite championing the business world, Scott’s ego is well and truly on the ground next to him. Humility and approachability are perhaps two of his most defining characteristics, enabling him to be so successful in what he does. Congruently, his experience as a practical expert on leadership and influence has helped many of the world’s best-known brands and government agencies to clear the way to improve communication, connection, and results.Ian Stephens CSP

Ben Watts is the Head of Studio for Spotify in Australia and New Zealand. He is responsible for Spotify’s continuing expansion into podcasting and talk audio mediums for the region. This including working with everyone from grassroots creators just starting their audio journey, to commissioning and licensing podcast from some of ANZ’s most amazing audio creators. It also includes helping more and more Australians discover the magic of listening to podcasts each day. Having started his career as a journalist and editor for Rolling Stone, he followed his love of entertainment and audience engagement across the digital gamut from reality TV (Big Brother, The Block) to celebrity news (ninemsn), radio and podcasting (The ABC) and music streaming (Apple Music) before taking up his current role at Spotify.Bronwyn Williams
As a woman in leadership across the fields of education and non-profit, Bron Williams has taught a multi-grade classroom, led a school, run a Salvation Army church and welfare centre, and worked with asylum seekers on Nauru. Over the past 16 years, she has shattered family and cultural expectations around what a woman should do, challenged societal norms about what ageing looks like, and reformed and reshaped her career not once but twice. Bron has discovered that it takes courage to let go of long-held beliefs that hold us back, to lead from behind when leadership is not recognised, and to set up and run businesses in fresh ways. She brings a wealth of insight and experience in both leadership and public speaking to her presentations.carousel:
