Alan Patching is one of the most sought‑after keynote business presenters speakers in Australia. From senior executives of leading corporations to sales incentive groups and professional associations, he has inspired, challenged, informed and entertained audiences for many years.
 
If one word can describe Alan Patching, that word is 'credibility'. He was formerly the Chief Executive Officer of the organization that owns Sydney's Olympic Stadium, and was the owner's Project Director, responsible for managing and overseeing design and construction of the largest Olympic stadium ever built, a venue that IOC President Samaranch called "the most impressive stadium I have seen in my life". He has personally managed or directed major development projects worth over $6 billion.
 
Alan Patching personally negotiated the largest property deal in Australia's property history, and the country's largest‑ever commercial lease. He is the author of several books and audio albums including 'The Futureproof Corporation' and '21st Century Leadership' in co‑authorship with Dr Denis Waitley of the United States, with whom he has toured on several occasions.  He is a member of several professional institutions and a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Management and the Australian Sales Institute.
 
Alan Patching's credibility and experience, combined with his finely honed platform skills, set him apart among business presenters. He has few peers in inspiring people to commit to choosing to make the change necessary to make organizations futureproof.
 
Alan Patching is a masterful platform presenter. His presentations are a high‑energy mix of humor, take home content, audience involvement and anecdotes. He is also an experienced panel session or 'hypothetical' facilitator, and a competent and humorous MC. Importantly, he tailors each presentation to the needs of the client.
 
Alan Patching is a dedicated family man with four children. He is also a former army officer, a jet endorsed private pilot with command instrument rating and an experienced kayaking ultra­marathoner. His formal qualifications are in Quantity Surveying (known in the USA as Cost Engineering).
