In the early hours of 1 May 2000, Constable Daryl Elliott Green was on a routine job in a suburban neighbourhood when he was ambushed and TWICE SHOT in the face and shoulder. In the heat of the moment, despite critical injuries, Daryl instinctively drew his firearm and started searching for the gunman while protecting injured colleagues and residents.

For his actions that night, Daryl received the highest police award for bravery and a citation from Australia’s Governor General. Yet Daryl’s real story – one so harrowing it will keep your audience on the edge of their seats – was only just beginning.

Keynote Topics

Resilience – survive, rise and thrive in difficult situations

Events can occur that we have no control over bringing uncertainty, disruption, even chaos and devastation. In these times, the smart way forward is firstly to get through and survive the crisis. Next accept what has happened. Then take positive, proactive steps, one day at a time, adapting to any setbacks along the way, to lead to a better and brighter future. In dramatic fashion, Daryl Elliott Green demonstrates how even the most challenging changes can make us stronger, wiser and more resilient, and can drive people, teams and organisations onto great success.

Key learnings:

Develop and grow resilience
Ask for and accept help
Accept and adjust to change
Capitalise on the advantages change brings

Leadership – lead others through a firestorm

Leading others is a learned skill and few people are ‘natural born leaders’. Great leadership, even for the naturals, is hard work.

It requires being the stellar example, building trust, earning and showing respect, putting the led before the leader and always going the extra mile to inspire others to higher performance while demonstrating genuine care for them.

This style of leadership can realise incredible tangible and intangible benefits. Getting the most out of people and teams is important at any time, but as Daryl Elliott Green shows, it’s critical in high pressure situations where clear and strong leadership can dramatically alter outcomes in your favour.

Key learnings:

Prioritise under pressure
Navigate people through and out of difficult times
Build rock-solid trust
Motivate people for maximum achievement during and after challenging events
