I bring a unique perspective to corporate speaking and motivation by blending real-life experiences from my aviation career — including the loss of my airline pilot career due to cystic brain disease — with powerful lessons in resilience, leadership, and navigating adversity.
What sets me apart is my ability to take audiences on an emotional journey: one that’s inspiring, entertaining, and deeply practical. My storytelling is real, raw, and delivered with humour — I make people laugh, think, and reflect.
I don’t talk about perfection — I focus on progress. I give audiences the tools they need to face challenges with confidence, embrace setbacks as part of growth, and move forward with clarity and purpose.
My message is simple: no matter how turbulent life gets, it’s how you respond that defines your path forward.

Hi, I'm Jas Rawlinson. I'm an award-winning speaker, author, book coach, and domestic violence survivor-advocate who empowers leadership teams to transform shame into strength and fear into focus. Whether you're looking for an inspiring keynote on building resilience and overcoming adversity, or a private leadership session on how to support staff experiencing domestic violence, I can help. Removing the stigma from difficult conversations and embracing the power of vulnerability is my speciality.

The Engine Room works with organisations that want practical results and real behavioural change - not generic, off-the-shelf training that teams struggle to implement once the session ends.
Our experience spans:
• Building, trades, construction and B2B services.
• Financial services and insurance.
• Real estate and property.
• Professional services.
• Retail and luxury retail.
• Technology and SaaS.

Kate is also the author of The Human Side of Sales, a regular media spokesperson across television, radio, podcasts and print media, and a longstanding judge for the Australian Small Business Champion Awards.
What makes The Engine Room different is the level of strategy, preparation and tailoring behind every program.
No business receives generic content.
Before every keynote, workshop or leadership program, significant time is invested understanding the business, audience, customer dynamics, challenges and commercial goals. That preparation allows every session to feel highly relevant, practical and immediately applicable to the people in the room.
The sessions are designed to be practical, engaging and highly interactive, using a combination of:
• Group discussion and collaboration.
• Pair activities and live conversation practice.
• Individual reflection and planning.
• Real business examples and customer scenarios.
• Interactive exercises and workshop activities.
• Practical tools and frameworks built during the session itself.
Clients consistently engage The Engine Room because the programs are:
• Tailored specifically to the business and industry.
• Commercially focused and highly practical.
• Interactive, engaging and immediately actionable.
• Built around real business conversations and challenges.
• Designed to shift behaviours and performance long after the session ends.
• Focused on creating tools, language and frameworks teams can use immediately.
• Delivered with a balance of strategy, psychology and real-world business experience.
Programs are delivered nationally both online and in person through keynotes, workshops, leadership programs and multi-session development series.
Whether working with business owners, executive leadership teams, sales professionals or frontline staff, the focus is always the same: Helping businesses strengthen performance through better communication, stronger leadership and more commercially effective teams.

We add enormous value to our clients by giving them the training, inspiration, and tools to become healthy, cohesive, and successful.

Our Core Values are: Engagement, Breakthrough and Passion
The Breakthrough Corporate Trainers are committed to helping your business or organisation succeed and break through. We deliver our training content using inspiring presentations, team-building activities, engaging workshops, games, discussions, and coaching. There are many training courses on the market today but at Breakthrough Corporate Training we seek to connect our training content and delivery to your business and organizational outcomes. Rather than simply unpacking a range of training courses with a ‘one size fits all’ approach, we believe you are looking for some clear outcomes for your unique business and therefore we tailor our training to ensure your desired outcomes are achieved.
Our most popular training offers include Communication, Cohesive Team Training, Sales Training and various trainings on topics ranging from Resilience, Managing Conflict, and Interpersonal Skills. Together with our partner Trainers, we have led over 85000+ people in attendance at our Talks and Training. Scott is an award-winning speaker who has also been a finalist at the highest level of International Toastmasters.
We believe there is a big difference between a learning organisation and a training organisation. Training often takes place in a vacuum and is unrelated to clear business objectives. On the other hand, learning organizations connect training to business outcomes and objectives. The Breakthrough Corporate Trainers have developed training technologies that go beyond the traditional training mores, and we focus on the outcomes your business is targeting. Training must connect to scott-and-greg-inspiringdaily priorities, tasks, career development, staff retention, team development, etc.
On the Team building / Healthy Cohesive Team side of things – it is important to have fun, engaging, and inspiring activities that build an intimate sense of team. Our captivating and flexible activities are designed to keep your employees entertained, engaged, and motivated.
Often our Team Building activities are woven in with our more structured Team Effectiveness or Communication Training. Others are dreamed up by our customers and the human resource departments that are out there. You can pick a team-building theme you like, or work with us to create something your team will love. We’ve designed these corporate group activities to be scalable for any group size, and portable to be run anywhere your team is getting together in Sydney, throughout New South Wales, or Australia.
Breakthrough Corporate Training is has a dozen Trainers/Speakers/Coaches who are uniquely skilled and offer you the service that you require.
We look forward to helping you and your team breakthrough!

+ 5 moreTEDx speaker and professional mentalist helping teams handle change, uncertainty and pressure | 1,000+ events, 100+ five-star reviews.
Andy Nunn helps organisations prepare their people for change, uncertainty and the future of work.
Blending live mentalism, humour and behavioural science, Andy shows audiences how quickly the mind fills in gaps, makes assumptions, misses information and reacts under pressure. His keynotes are not lectures about change. They are interactive experiences where people see their own thinking patterns play out in real time.
This makes Andy a strong fit for organisations navigating AI disruption, transformation, restructuring, growth, new ways of working, or periods of uncertainty.
His signature keynotes include Mind The Gap, which explores the space between stimulus and response, and Wonderfully Uncomfortable, which helps teams handle uncertainty, challenge old patterns and act with more clarity when the path ahead is unclear.
Audiences leave with practical tools to think more clearly, question assumptions earlier, communicate with more influence and stay composed when change feels uncomfortable.
Book Andy if you want more than a motivational talk. You want a keynote that helps people see uncertainty differently and gives them a practical way to move through it.
