Jason Jelicich Motivational keynote speaker, Jason is the CEO and founder and of an organisation devoted to creating more connected people and healthier working cultures. For the past 20 years, Jason has been teaching, training and guiding others from all walks of life. He has developed literally hundreds of educational programs for employees and their leadership teams, as well as working with troubled teenagers on the side.

His perspective on life and work shifted irrevocably, and as a result, a new paradigm for dealing with the world emerged. He now shares his inspiring message on how to stay in the ‘Present’ during challenging times – without having to meditate on a mountaintop somewhere! His book, is The Present – A Handbook for the Everyday Guru.

THE PRESENT KEYNOTE
Stress related presenteeism and absenteeism are costing the Australian economy $14.81 billion a year!. Many organisational Psychologists and GP’s are now turning towards the new science – but ancient practice – of Mindfulness to find answers. Being connected to the Present moment is the key to Mindfulness. Individuals who are connected to the present tend to be more action-orientated, display clearer thinking, better able to problem-solve and consequently are more effective. Teams who are connected to the present tend to work more collaboratively, are more motivated and productive, and are likely to achieve better results. In The Present Keynote your participants are involved in a participatory theatre-like experience offering practical strategies and insights as to how they may continuously better manage their cerebral energy, and thereby help them to keep a clear and agile mind, which inevitability leads to better business decisions.

TAKE-OUTS INCLUDE:
Ways to gain more mental clarity in 5 minutes or less Enhance your ‘gut-feel’ leading to better decisions Become more action-orientated and take control of your immediate domain Read people and situations with more accuracy and empathy How to step out of comfort zones and take on new challenges.
