Anton started his career as an Apprentice Electrician in 1990, the trade that would lead him to get blown up in a switchboard, an accident that changed his life and his world. The learnings from this incident have helped Anton inspire other to follow their own dreams and goals. Anton teaches people about personal leadership.
He has told his story nationally and internationally, and shares powerful messages and analogies about leadership and life.
Following that accident, Anton progressed into a range of mid-level management roles in industries including copper smelting, alumina refining and uranium mining, amongst others. In 2004, his focus changed from leading teams to consulting to businesses, and working with leaders to help them create high performing team cultures, and care factor leadership.
After modest beginnings in the Consulting industry during his early years in business, Anton learnt the secrets of business success and applied this to grow a range of businesses, including a labour-hire business from $0 to over $2M turnover in 3 years.
Anton delivers messages that stimulate, educate and inspire. As a workshop facilitator, he assists leaders to take ideas and strategies from inspiration to implementation. As an MC, Anton manages the event process, the consolidation of other engagements and the delivery of the event, all whilst working with the audience to keep them engaged.
Anton has an Undergraduate Engineering Diploma, a Graduate Business Degree and a Post Graduate Diploma of Maintenance Management.
The difference between you and all our other speakers is that you also deliver leadership and coaching programs, so you are always going to have a different edge in your delivery approach and knowledge base. You are a natural born presenter and great with a group of people. I really like the way you focus your talk around Attitude, Behaviour, Consequences (ABC). Your ability to engage the audience, speak to them and not at them, find out names and sometimes their story ... is fantastic.
