About

“Learning is what most adults will do for a living in the 21st century." - Alfred Perlman.

I help CEOs, leaders, corporate teams and schools to rethink organisational learning, so their people analyse and evaluate different approaches, genuinely problem solve, and compose new perspectives.

As a lifelong educator and education and learning expert, I bring the innovative approach I have used to dynamically change the way schools operate into the corporate setting, to change learning cultures.

When people are busy they don't stop to think how they can do things differently, and this can affect safety, wellbeing, culture, performance and profitability. I'm passionate about seeing people make breakthroughs to create new solutions and meet challenges in different ways.

HOW I HELP:

► Keynote presentations on effective learning for team and organisational success
► Workshops & programs on maximising collaboration and co-operative learning
► Mentoring & coaching for leaders to engage staff and instil high expectations

My two upcoming books include ‘Unlearn’, which explains why leaders in a corporate environment must forget everything we think about learning, and what we’ll need to re-learn for success in the information age.

As a speaker to Australian and International audiences, I have been featured on Today, Sunrise, The Project, ABC Radio/TV, TEDX, and numerous international conferences.

Organisations I have worked with include the Tasmanian Government, Royal Australian Navy, Suncorp, Siemens Engineering, and hundreds of schools across Australia.

“[Adam] challenges…his audience to understand their decision-making and how they can [make] decisions from different perspectives. This leads to them consider how they work and how they can be a meaningful and productive contributor.” – Gail Barker, CEO, AISNT

    A fantastic period connecting and learning with educators who would remain lifelong friends and colleagues ... I had just a little bit of fun too! This course was punctuated by a Teaching Round in Alice Springs which would serve to draw Adam's work back to the Northern Territory time and again to work in some of Australia's most challenging and rewarding environments.
