Freddie Bennett

Freddie Bennett

“I learned about decision-making when a drug dealer held a gun to my head and pulled the trigger”

Freddie Bennett is a man on a mission.

Do you know anyone who went from:

Stressed, depressed, addicted, unfit and overweight corporate executive…

...To complete the world toughest footrace across the scorching Sahara Desert, fighting blizzards, frostbite and polar bears to run across the Arctic towards the North Pole, and is featured in the Guinness Book of World Records as the fastest person to ever run a marathon…dressed as a fisherman?

You do now.

Described by Men’s Health magazine as ‘The foremost expert in mindset, resilience and high performance’, Freddie Bennett is a bestselling author with ‘Starting at Zero - The Guide To Making Your Dreams Come True With Everything Else is F**ked', Apple Top-25 Podcast host, sought after consultant and speaker at a variety of leading global brands including Coca-Cola, Amazon, Microsoft, IHG, Vodafone, Heineken, PwC, Accenture, Virgin Atlantic… and The United Nations.

---------

When it comes to resilience, performing under pressure, strength in adversity and leading through change, Freddie gives you experience, insight and emotion like no other.

Other speakers talk about it. Freddie is the only speaker who has lived it.

New Zealand media calls him “The saviour of the professional services industry” and Men’s Health magazine described him as “The foremost expert in mindset, resilience and high performance”.

But this is not your bog-standard, unrelatable, ‘rally the troops’ yawn-fest delivered by a cookie-cutter, square-jawed ‘motivational speaker’ dropping tired-old cliches.

What makes Freddie unique is that he’s NOT an ex-Navy SEAL, a professional athlete, privileged adventurer or a smooth-talking life coach. He was an everyday corporate manager who battled depression, addiction,imposter syndrome burnout and and breakdown…

…then decided to become extraordinary.

Now, he proves to businesses and individuals that they can achieve the goals they once considered impossible.

---------

From Amazon to Virgin Atlantic, from Coca-Cola to Vodafone, and from PwC to Heineken via IHG, Freddie has graced some of the most iconic stages in the US, Australasia and Europe on topics like:

- Turning a Disruption into Your Unfair Advantage
- How to Create a Win In a Losing Streak
- Fit for The Future: Creating Confidence & Resilience Through Change.
- The Mask of Confidence: Why Imposter Syndrome Is Your Secret to Success
- From Burnout To Breakthrough
- ‘Time-Folding’ to Turbocharge Productivity
- The Authenticity Myth: How to Profit From Your True Nature
- Anabolic Thinking: How to create a win in the toughest of markets

Joyce West

Joyce West

I'm a top-rated coach, including being on Influence Digest's List of 2023 Top Coaches in San Francisco (a short list of 15 coaches out of thousands, if not tens of thousands of coaches).

I founded and successfully sold an office snack distribution company to corporate offices, and love being an early stage employee at fast growing and innovative companies where I can make an impact.

I'm a General Manager and operating executive for growing companies. I love change management, turnarounds, and strategically fixing problems and fueling growth. I love balancing the two sides of every business equation (supply and demand) - creating demand and making it rain through sales and business development, and also driving excellence in operations/fulfillment.

I'm also a seasoned Chief Revenue Officer experienced in creating strategy and world class execution for the entire sales cycle. I can play a CRO role or a VP of Sales role. I have extensive experience with creating aggressive finance strategy, managing cashflow, and optimizing pricing, costs and revenues.

Fast forward to the present - my passion is career coaching, executive and leadership coaching, business coaching, and sales coaching.

I coach a wide range of clients, but am a unicorn 🦄 coach when it comes to serving ambitious leaders (of all ethnicities and genders), Asian American leaders (or those looking to move into leadership), people of color / minorities, and women. There aren't many coaches who do what I do to get more Asian Americans to break the bamboo ceiling, so that is a particular mission and passion of mine.

I'm a serial entrepreneur who started her first business in college, and I've never known what it's like to not be in charge and be a leader. If you're someone who wants to gain that executive presence, stop being an apologist for who you are, and train to be in the C-suite and executive management, let's talk. #diversityplease

I am a Data Scientist. I have a few simple and crucial skills, asking a good question, being able to research to find the answer and being able to explain it once I've found it. I learn through play and I build my own playgrounds. I had a role working with the team discovering the heaviest known elements: 117 and 118 (Ts and Og). I make tools that make my team successful and I can find a needle in a haystack (if you need a needle).

I'm keenly interested in mentorship, the use of technology in the learning process, data science, machine learning, ethical AI, puzzles, visualization, math, physics and FLOSS. I really enjoy effective illustrations and experiments that can unlock solving very complicated problems. I love a good one sentence story.
