ABOUT

Author | Educator | Mediator

After a successful international career in VIP Protection, Rob Redenbach transferred the strategies of personal security and tactical communication to the business arena. Drawing from experiences that include working with the bodyguard team of Nelson Mandela in South Africa and providing risk management services in the Middle East, Rob provides compelling insights into leadership, adaptability and how to reduce conflict and improve cooperation.

A Nationally Accredited Mediator, Rob has studied post-graduate law at Bond University’s Dispute Resolution Centre and has a Master of Arts (with Distinction) in Terrorism, Safety and Security from Charles Sturt University. He has also completed Executive Education at Harvard Kennedy School of Government in the United States.

Media reviews of Rob’s autobiography, Waveman, included “a great, inspiring and motivating read, with wider audience appeal than it would first seem” and attracted positive coverage in The Financial Review and Sky News Business – among others. His latest book (and keynote), What I Didn’t Learn at Harvard, delivers a streetwise perspective on leadership and persuasive communication – empowering the audience with a focus on determination, resilience and discovering what really matters.  

Corporate executives, special forces officers, project managers, professional educators and small business owners are just some of Rob’s clients who have benefited from his leadership and communication strategies.

Rob’s primary keynote presentations are: 7 Leverage Tools and Power of Initiative.

While the content of the two presentations is different, both incorporate a healthy mix of humour, memorable stories and practical knowledge. Additionally, Rob can tailor his material to suit a particular training objective or conference theme.

Rob regularly presents to corporate and business groups all across Australia, as well as internationally. Rob is equally comfortable delivering a light-hearted 20-minute speech in an after-dinner setting, a dynamic 60-minute keynote presentation at a business conference or an extended interactive workshop for business leaders.

Rob’s most popular presentation is Dynamic Leadership, an interactive workshop… 

DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP:

A key characteristic of a dynamic leader is their ability to move forward and achieve extraordinary results long after ordinary leaders have been overwhelmed by the situation or circumstance.

For more than 20 years Rob Redenbach has been helping leaders to enhance performance at that critical place where pressure and opportunity meet. Blending a powerful mix of academic credentials with practical experience, Redenbach’s half-day Dynamic Leadership workshop cuts to the bone of what it really takes to make the transition from ordinary to extraordinary.

From taking part in drug raids with the Los Angeles FBI SWAT team, to teaching his own system of defensive tactics to Nelson Mandela’s bodyguard team in South Africa, and providing security services to US aid-workers in Iraq and Afghanistan, Rob Redenbach has gained a unique working perspective on leadership and communication.

Dynamic Leadership emphasises the importance of using brains over brawn when dealing with conflict, and provides practical techniques to deal with problems that cannot or should not be avoided. Learning and development outcomes include the capacity to:

 

  • Communicate clearly and persuasively
  • Move from manager to leader
  • Build a culture of high performance
  • Defuse aggressive and obstructive behavior in others
  • Become a more resilient leader

Originally intended for elite law enforcement professionals, Dynamic Leadership with Rob Redenbach has received high praise from business CEOs, professional educators, project managers, negotiators, ambassadors of change, NGOs and not-for-profits.

Presented at a location of the client’s choice Dynamic Leadership is designed for audiences ranging in size from 15 to 120 and is guaranteed to engage and empower.

If you are a Conference Organiser or HR Manager, this half-day (4-hour) workshop can help to make your next event the best ever.

PRAISE

“Over the past 5 years we’ve hired some of the world’s most respected law enforcement speakers – including Dave Grossman – on multiple occasions. Rob Redenbach was rated as one of our very best speakers. The response to his half-day workshop on leadership was overwhelmingly great. Nearly every evaluation rated him 9s or 10s all the way through. Very high marks from a cynical bunch of senior narcotic cops.”
