Employers, chief executives, managers and team leaders are always seeking new and better ways to maximize productivity levels of staff. Not just for peak workloads but to develop the resilience needed to sustain human momentum over weeks, months and years. In these times of financial downturn, the pressure and stress is felt even more heavily on the people left behind to carry the load after redundancies.

With the line between work and personal life becoming a 24/7 blur, the search to understand employee behavior is now going beyond the workplace into the realm of total human behavior. That’s where Peter Nicholls comes into his own and he has a unique, refreshing and energizing slant to offer.

We all have passionate interests that bring us alive – at work, home and play.

The work ethic has long recognized the benefits of work-related passion in maximizing work productivity, innovative thinking and corporate commitment. But the same work ethic has ignored the benefits of an employee having a passionate personal interest away from work. In some cases, managers see it is a competitor to work demands.

They overlook the fact that passionate interests that employees undertake purely for their own personal enjoyment unlock the same benefits, with a ripple effect flowing through everything they do, including their work. Moreover it generates refreshing natural stress management benefits that are often unobtainable from work-related passions.

Business leaders are beginning to recognize the extensive value of this very different – yet very natural – body of knowledge as a highly important means of getting and sustaining the best of the best.


Peter Nicholls is himself the best there is at understanding and conveying this sort of knowledge to business leaders. Peter has accumulated over 30 years professional experience, knowledge and wisdom in helping thousands of people of all ages, interests and walks of life to identify, develop and maximize their personal and business potential through enjoyable personal interests.

His thoughtful theme, “when you lose yourself in an interest you love, you find yourself” typifies his unique, human and perceptive approach to imparting his seasoned experience to chief executives, managers, team leaders – any person whose staff interests are in terms of human behavior, rather than human resources.

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.


Peter’s leadership experiences include:

· Senior government management roles in Recreation and Sport Planning, Public Relations and Development

· 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

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