A MOST AWESOME POWER : The Power to TEACH
Bernie Kelly has been dubbed the ‘Grandfather of the Experiential Learning Industry’ in Australia by many of today’s major players. For 25 years, Bernie’s vision of giving every child the right to believe they can make a difference has led to a radical redefining of experiential processes from typical outdoor adventure activity of the late 70’s to powerful conference room processes that are capable of changing people’s paradigms of self and the world around them.
Bernie only delivers experiences that meet his three way accountability test ....
Was it FUN ? Was it EXPERIENTIAL ? and Was it TRANSFORMATIONAL ?
Bernie invents processes that have to meet all three criteria.
Hear of Bernie’s remarkable journey. Learn from the master, who for a quarter of a century has been re-writing the rule book on what we can and cannot do with kids and their lives. This promises to be a most enlightening and inspirational hour not to be missed.
