Hi my name is Ben and I like helping people grow…
In part, this is because I am always seeking to grow myself and you can’t move the plank you are standing on. From learning a trade as a carpenters apprentice at the age of 16 to the same years again in Community and International development, I have become a student of human development, always seeking to understand the conditions and tools that
allow us to become our most authentic selves. For most of this time I have lived and work with marginalised and highly remote communities working with at risk young people, the frail aged, lower socio economic and Indigenous communities as well as with industry and community leaders and social entrepreneurs with whom I experienced my own vulnerabilities as well as theirs. To process these life lessons gained working with people, building teams and coaching individuals I have sought the most powerful and sophisticated growth and development training on offer from traditional wisdoms to leading edge modern psychology in an education that has taken me around the world. I know the passion and commitment it takes to make a difference. I also know how essential it is to be supported, to support others, and to grow in capacity and awareness of how to effectively manage yourself as well as working with others. I use frameworks that work respectfully with diversity while not shying away from challenging people to consider new and broader perspectives. I understand how to support teams as they develop and individuals see and overcome their personal stuck places to become more aware, coherent and purposeful. As I move forward I intend to continue to grow, networking and learning at the leading edge of human development theory globally while remaining based here in regional Tasmania and offering world class coaching and training to anyone seeking deep personal growth and the tools to work powerfully with others. I love working with groups providing training to teams as a whole and complementing this with personal one on one sessions as needed. If I can help you or your team grow (be in online or on site) I’d love to have a chat and look forward to meeting you personally.
