Inspiring and Motivating

It comes from his experience conducting corporate and community health and fitness programs at the Australian Institute of Sport.

Thought Provoking
John talks about health and fitness in a thought-provoking, humorous, deceptively simple and down to earth style. Your delegates will come away challenged and ready to galvanize themselves back into the fit and healthy way of life.
Practical
The presentation is practical in that it takes participants directly into the health and fitness issues that concern them on a day to day basis
How to fix up a crook back or stiff neck
How to lose weight quickly and safely
How to get to sleep quickly and sleep better
How to dramatically lower stress levels.
In particular, the presentation gives people the clear and unambiguous reasons for being more vigorously physically active. The benefits are compelling.
John talks about the importance of giving back to one's Self and the importance of finding the time for a distraction strategy that switches people off from busyness, misery and work.
Dynamic
Miller is an energetic, engaging and dynamic performer. His presentation will have a marked impact on your delegates, one that extends well beyond your conference.
Interactive
The session is interactive, including:
a quick health and fitness check based on the Mind and Body profile
a demonstration of some of the exercises people need to do to keep their back and neck in good shape
a simple muscular relaxation exercise.
Corporate Benefits
John's presentation goes to the very heart of corporate health management. It is unique in the way it links individual health and well-being with corporate health and wellbeing.
Our corporate originations are being plagued by an epidemic of motion starvation. Its effects on individuals are widespread and the symptoms appear as headaches, poor sleep, obesity, lack of energy, high blood pressure and musculo-skeletal dysfunction to name but a few. The effects on organisations in terms of lost productivity are enormous.
The models, principles and insights included in John's presentation are based on a theme:
Healthy people create healthy workplaces for themselves and their colleagues.
Successfully managing oneself is an essential prerequisite for successfully managing other people.
Life satisfaction and career satisfaction are intimately connected.
People who are fit and healthy and love their jobs don't need to be motivated; they motivate themselves.
This is why John Miller's presentation is an excellent way to draw attention to the personal health issues that permeate the workplace, and at the same time giving balance perspective to the technical and professional themes of your conference.
For corporate organisations the benefits of people being fitter and healthier are compelling. For a start they feel better; and when people feel better they are more productive.
On top of that they:
have more energy, vitality and enthusiasm
are happier
have superior morale communication and teamwork
exhibit enhanced levels of creativity
have higher self esteem and self confidence.
Let John Miller put health and fitness squarely back your organisation's human resource agenda.
