Keynotes
Rob Redenbach helps leaders and teams to increase productivity by overcoming objections, reducing conflict and improving cooperation.
There's nothing theoretical about what Rob teaches. It's taken straight from the real world. Yes, there's an academic foundation: he has post-graduate qualifications and he's completed executive education at Harvard University, but he balances that with practical experiences that include, among other things; surviving a road-side ambush in Baghdad. He's also presented at hundreds of major conferences around the world, and to quote his friend Jackie Fury "he won't experiment on your audience".

Streetwise Leadership (Duration: 60-90 minutes)
If you're planning a conference or an executive retreat and you're looking for a way to give your delegates proven tools for dealing with conflicting objectives, Streetwise Leadership will fit the bill perfectly. Both practical and entertaining, this interactive keynote approaches leadership, change, communication and teamwork as jigsaw components of the one mosaic.
Although the techniques and conceptual models contained within this keynote are highly pragmatic, this is not an aggressive approach to conflict resolution. On the contrary, Streetwise Leadership incorporates a healthy balance of empathy, humour and field-proven techniques needed to work with – rather than against – people.
"Rob Redenbach presented two sessions to our Regional Leaders Forum. Rob brought rich and tangible examples of his experiences in leadership and managing change, illustrated through key points and models. Feedback included: 'An excellent presenter, appropriate content, future focused', 'Provided the opportunity to reflect on approaches that are not often broached', 'Amusing, dynamic, interesting and presented some really relevant material.'"

Waveman (Duration: 30-40 minutes)
Waveman is the true story of a modern-day ‘ronin’, the Japanese word for masterless samurai. Literally translated a ronin is a ‘wave man’ – a soldier tossed by the waves of fortune. Drawing from Rob's best-selling autobiography, Waveman is an inspirational roadmap on personal development, leadership and much more. With a message that consistently connects with audiences from all walks of life, Waveman will add an extra edge to your next event or product launch.
"A remarkable presentation. Without exception the team found the content interesting, enjoyable, and most importantly, valuable. You don’t have to have an interest in self defense, or martial arts, or military type stories to take important messages from Rob Redenbach."

No tired jokes, boring clichés, stolen material or pilfered photos from the Internet. Rob speaks from experience.
3) No dramas.
Rob takes pride in being a "low-maintenance" speaker. He won't demand a personal chauffeur, expect a hotel room upgrade or bombard you with special dietary needs.
4) Peace of mind.
Rob will arrive on time, refreshed and ready to present. If something goes wrong, such as last minute changes to the run-sheet, Rob will work with you to make your next event the best ever.
"I've worked with Rob since 2003. Every year since then we've engaged Rob to be a keynote speaker at various Corporate, Government and Association conferences. Due to the overwhelming positive feedback from past clients, we continue to recommend Rob to speak to clients that are looking for a different style of leadership speaker (not the sport or business variety)."
