Glenn Manton
Biography
Corporate business, community clubs/associations, young school aged adults and of course athletic bodies make up the width and breadth of public presentations for highly sought guest speaker Glenn Manton. Few speakers can share their insights with such a wide demographic which is testament to the level of exposure garnered through an elite (professional) sporting career, various forms of media employment and a direct relationship with the wider community. Simply speaking Glenn Manton has been able to build relationships based on honesty, integrity and a sense of equality. Using a raw edge that exposes human flaws that juxtapose life's successes and failings an engagement involving Glenn Manton is sure to evoke both interaction and contemplation from the audience. A blend of challenging activities, transparent stories and audience questioning are used to provide insight into motivation, communication and team to outline but a few (familiar) topics.
Public presentations often see a need to cater directly to the requirements of the client and as such Glenn Manton enjoys fulfilling specific needs and working in conjunction with other presenters. Whilst the exact nature of each presentation is individual the core values are constant; honesty, interactivity and empathy. Couple these ideals with humour and you have a speaker with whom people want to engage well after the event. By accessing glennmanton.com those who have been involved in an engagement have the opportunity to follow up (should they choose) on any topic of interest well after the curtain has been called. There should be no such thing as a hit and run in the world of public speaking as with any business it is the little things that count and allow for positive word of mouth.
2006 was a highly successful year for Glenn Manton the public speaker as the aforementioned word of mouth when combined with his direct employment from bodies such as the ANZ bank to Macquarie University allowed for his voice to be heard on many occasions. From private school auditoriums to corporate lecture theatres Glenn Manton creates a unique niche in the public speaking market. A thirty three year old (married) with three children and a dissimilar background that includes everything from dinner with the great train robber 'Ronald Biggs' in the middle of Rio to a season of bobsleigh racing on the World Cup level is not the norm.
Join with Glenn as he continues to share various aspects of his divergent verve whilst showing a genuine interest in the lives of his audience.

Arts based team building
My wife Katrina is a professional artist. As such I have been able to use her arts base skill and my presentation abilities to run arts based team building events for schools and corporate groups on site or off which have both captured both the imagination and spirit of the group. Participants can work in a number of combinations although the ideal group size is 20 or less. Each participant leaves with ‘artwork’ they have created during the day. The ANZ bank amongst other groups display their works proudly in their office space.
Parent-student relations/communications
The Better Choices program has been developed to engage both students (of all ages but preferably years 11/12) and their parents. Hosted by individual schools who may wish to subsidize costs, the program itself is seen to be paid for by parents. A three session 1 and ½ hour program that is flexible in its rollout Better Choices allows for family members to skill up across areas from communication to health and fitness-together.
*A specific outline has been created and is available upon request.
One off team building challenges
Whether it’s motivating a corporate group to climb Mt Bogong or encouraging students to ‘band together’ I have serviced client’s needs in providing team building challenges of various length and intensity-both indoor and out. Imagination may be the only limiting factor as to what is feasible in this regard. I have also developed some key relationships with ‘other’ providers such as HART (motorcycle training facility)-South Dragons NBL team whereby permission has been granted to work in with their infrastructure.
