“You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink”, so the old saying goes. It’s much the same in business when you try to get the best out of people. Try as you will, in the final analysis people will follow their feelings.

Then you remember what attracts you about a great employee – their energy! They seem always to display unbounded enthusiasm, commitment, creativity and flair.

Passion is the most powerful positive emotion. Passion drives potential.  It lifts self esteem, self confidence, self belief and the sense of self worth. Every manager dreams of having staff like that, especially when times are tough.

Passion is by no means limited to work. It’s probably more often found in a freely-chosen personal interest.  As well as all the other benefits, a passionate interest away from work is the most natural and effective form of stress relief – taking the mind away from problems and into a world of sheer enjoyment.

Peter focuses on passion, enjoyment and emotions in his very different, lateral-thinking – yet highly realistic and practical – approach to people management in business. It’s the product of more than 30 years of professional recreation planning and development experience, observing and encouraging positive human behaviour during freely-chosen interests away from the work environment.

Peter understands leadership is earned rather than learned. From as young as 14 years, Peter has been naturally drawn to a wide range of leadership roles – at work, in his profession and in community life.  


His leadership roles include:

·         The South Australian State Government’s

o        Senior Manager, Recreation Planning and Development, and

o        Public Relations Manager, Recreation and Sport

·         Life Member. National President, State President and multiple awards winner in his professional association, the Royal Australian Institute of Parks and Recreation

·         Executive member of various national, state and local Australian sporting organisations

·         Church leadership roles

Beyond being invited by the US Business Expert Webinars to be an expert presenter in developing sustained human energy resources for work and personal life, Peter’s credits include:

• “The Busy Woman’s e-Guide to Enjoying Time for Self”

·         graduate of the National Speakers Association of Australia’s Speakers Academy.
