Wellbeing and Resilience in the Work Place. Tony has earned the right to speak on this subject and delivers a compelling presentation providing participants with some honest insights into the reality of the impacts stress can have on us as well as our most stalwart of colleagues. From recognising the early signs of stress to dealing with the unhealthy consequences of long term exposure participants are offered pragmatic suggestions and simple tools to work with in monitoring and maintaining their own resilience and in providing empathetic support for colleagues, friends and family. Tony delivers this workshop with a passion and strong desire to reach out and empower all of us in dealing with this insidious and often unseen threat to the ‘work/life’ balance we aspire to.

I've known Tony for over 10 years. During my time at the NZTA, he was one of the industry representatives on the Network Outcomes Contract development team. Tony has a very good understanding of infrastructure management in NZ and I trust his judgment. His knowledge is broad and deep in his areas of expertise. He also understands the importance of leadership and relationships in the sector and puts a significant amount of personal effort into these areas. I would highly recommend Tony to other clients.
