Mental health leadership

Join this online event for decision makers from any and every industry who care about their organisation and their people.

The Speaker Kevin has spoken to most industries - construction, education, finance, wealth creation, wellness, pharmaceutical, nursing, aviation, transport, stevedoring, superannuation etc etc and the responses are the same as the testimonials every time from every industry whether its a boardroom of 8 people or a ballroom of 800.

Key takeaways:

• If you’ve got a brain and a blood supply, you’re susceptible to mental illness; it doesn’t discriminate.

• Mental Illness is normal, manageable and recoverable for the great majority of people.

• Our heads only have part of the answer; we’ve got to listen to our hearts as well.

About the Speaker

Kevin was in the military as a combat helicopter pilot and commander for 20 years. Following several operational deployments and towards the peak of his career he contemplated suicide, suffering a breakdown due to PTSD, depression and bullying. But it wasn’t the rockets or bullets that tore him apart, it was the workplace. Following his recovery, he spent the next 10 years as a Search and Rescue helicopter pilot, flight instructor and examiner.

Today, his personal mission is to lift humanity by inspiring others to find their own courage and compassion in order to enjoy the benefits these bring. He is the Mental Health Ambassador for AIRBUS Australia Pacific, a Community Ambassador for Mates4Mates and the creator of COR INFINITUS (meaning ‘Infinite Courage’) which brings dignity, respect and healing to the families of those who’ve served our nation and taken their own lives. Kevin shows that mental illness and PTSD are normal, manageable and recoverable for the great majority of people and can be the catalyst for growth.
