” In both these situations I have been working with people who have been feeling particularly vulnerable and there was something very powerful about the term ‘inner arrogance’ that meant in both situations these people (myself included as I always consider myself a learner in any relationship…be that with family, friend, client or colleague) were able to grasp something strong and solid…something internal…almost like a ‘fire in the belly’. “

“We have been conducting conferences throughout Australia and New Zealand for twenty years. The quality of his material and the professionalism of his delivery resulted in delegates rating John as our best ever closing speaker.”

Kareena Arthy,
MD – Biosecuity Queensland (DEEDI)
“Hi – a quick note to say thank you for today. We unanimously thought it was terrific and were using words like ‘watershed’ in terms of our development. We really appreciate the roles you both played with us and the time you gave us. We really hope you will keep working with us as many light bulbs went on as to what we could be as a team and we would love your guidance to help us get there. Thank you again Kareena (on behalf of the Biosecurity Queensland Senior LEADERSHIP Team – yes, we officially changed our name today after our discussions).”

Raj Biyani,
Managing Director| Microsoft IT (India)
John attended our annual leadership conference in Jaipur and presented what it meant to be a high performance team, and importantly how to lead one. John shared several leadership lessons, which were made real with stories from John’s experience coaching the Australian cricket team and the Kolkata Knight Riders organization. All the delegates at the conference enjoyed John’s presentation and were able to take many lessons back to apply in their own business units.”

Brett Hayward,
D/G Dept Natural Resources and Mines, Qld Govt
“John presented his outline of leadership and what it takes to create and make a high performance team work to our senior leadership cohort today. His messages were extremely well received by the group, and are very topical for the department as we transition into a new phase of government business with its various stakeholders. I am hoping we can continue to engage John’s coaching services as part of our overall leadership development program.”

Stephen Johnston,
Senior Client Partner, Korn Ferry
We engaged John to help us deliver to a client, some of the content around leadership, being a coach, and the coaching of staff. The response from the client was very enthusiastic, and that the staff involved in the session found John’s talk quite impactful. We would certainly look to collaborate with John on future projects.”

Paul Tully,
CEO, McInnes Wilson Lawyers
We conducted a gathering of staff and clients from the construction industry with the topic based around leadership of teams. John Buchanan was our guest speaker, and it is fair to say, that everyone left the room with something that would impact each of their businesses. John’s ability to relate his Australian cricket coaching experiences, the various people issues and the solutions to the similar experiences faced by leaders within the construction industry was simple and effective.”

Rob Setter ,
former Deputy D/G, DEEDI
Hello John Firstly, all the very best for 2014.

My thoughts on “the top 5 actions, behaviours and/or traits that I brought to the DEEDI team which helped with overall performance” are:

  • independent, proven team “champion”
  • unassuming, gentle yet firm manner
  • performance model based on identifying and developing strengths (as opposed to emphasising weaknesses) as the basis for setting sights ever higher, yet
  • an accute ability to observe, analyse and question performance inconsistent with an agreed, desired state
  • rich experiences from which to draw “stories” as analogies to inform performance reflection and review.
