Engaging Speakers - Insights From a Motivational Speaker

A Memorable Day for Change and Leadership Keynote Speaker Julian Mather

At the recent PAnaesthesia conference in Brisbane, keynote speaker Julian Mather captivated an audience of anesthesia professionals, inspiring reflection on change and leadership. He arrived in perfect weather on his trusty scooter, ready to bring fresh insights and optimism to the stage.

A Talk That Truly Resonated

Conference organizer Allison Kearney noted, “Julian’s presentation was fascinating, humorous, engaging, thought-provoking, and an optimistic breath of fresh air within our program.” Her words perfectly captured the impact of Julian’s message—his audience was fully engaged, and the presentation struck a chord.

A Surprising Turn of Events

After his successful talk, Julian was shocked to discover his scooter had been stolen. Security footage revealed a brazen act: an individual with bolt cutters walked up, clipped the lock, and scooted away.

An Unexpected Gift

The PAnaesthesia conference committee, led by Kearney, quickly reached out to Julian: “We’ll make sure you have a replacement scooter one way or another!” The conference’s unexpected kindness reinforced the truth that good people are all around us, even in the unlikeliest situations.
