Chelsea Pottenger | Leading authority on productivity, mindfulness & wellbeing For 12-years Chelsea was known for her extraordinary work ethic and as a high performer she delivered results for a variety of big name organisations. Then in 2015, Chelsea experienced debilitating Post-Natal Depression, which sent her spiralling to the lower depths of mental health. With determination, help and resilience Chelsea bounced back with a new purpose, passion and education. In Chelsea’s session be prepared to laugh, learn, grow and walk away with some lifechanging tools to help them become more successful, more energised and most importantly more able to tackle any challenge life throws at you! |

Gus Balbontin | Investor, Advisor, Explorer Seeking a change from corporate life, Gus hung up his boots as Executive Director and CTO of Lonely Planet and decided to move back to his entrepreneurial roots, becoming an investor, founder and mentor across the start-up ecosystem in Melbourne. Over the last 3 years, Gus has presented around the world. The simplicity of his message and his counterintuitive way of looking at the world will motivate you to do things differently. Often thought of as a futurist, not because he predicts the future or makes predictions about living in a world run by AI, but because he helps you focus on what you can control to deal with any future. You will be blown away by Gus’ powerful perspectives and candid stories. Gain new ways of expressing and communicating with each other and acting on the challenges we all face in business today. |
