Keynotes
Keynote by Troy Gray:
Business & Entrepreneurship
In an era defined by constant change, building a business, or sustaining momentum within one, requires more than a good idea. It demands conviction, adaptability, and the ability to make clear decisions in uncertain conditions. In this high-energy keynote, Troy draws on his experience across elite sport, media, and business to explore what it really takes to back yourself when the stakes are high.
Blending real-world insight with compelling storytelling, Troy examines how successful entrepreneurs and leaders manage risk, respond to setbacks, and maintain momentum when progress feels fragile. He breaks down the psychology behind decision-making under pressure and shows how clarity, consistency, and self-belief become competitive advantages in fast-moving environments.
Audiences leave with practical tools for navigating uncertainty, building resilience, and turning challenge into forward motion — making this keynote particularly relevant for founders, leadership teams, and organisations in growth or transition.
Keynote by Troy Gray:
Leadership & High Performance
Leadership today is less about authority and more about influence. It’s about how you show up when expectations are high, resources are stretched, and others are looking for direction. In this powerful and relatable keynote, Troy reframes leadership as presence, the ability to lead with clarity, composure, and intent, even under pressure.
Drawing parallels between high-performance sport and modern workplaces, Troy explores the habits and mindsets that separate reactive leaders from those who consistently perform. He addresses trust, accountability, and standards, not as abstract ideals, but as daily practices that shape culture and results.
This keynote challenges leaders to raise the bar without losing their people, showing how consistency, emotional intelligence, and self-awareness drive sustainable performance. Practical, honest, and deeply relevant, it resonates with leaders at every level who want to lead with impact rather than title.
Keynote by Troy Gray:

Through powerful storytelling and real-life reflection, Troy explores how mindset shapes outcomes and why resilience is less about toughness and more about adaptability. He speaks candidly about failure, self-doubt, and the turning points that redefine direction, creating a genuine connection with audiences navigating their own challenges.
This keynote reignites purpose and perspective, reminding people of what’s possible when focus shifts and energy is reclaimed. Audiences can expect warmth, humour, and authenticity and to leave the room with renewed confidence, clarity, and a lasting sense of motivation that extends well beyond the event.
