Corporate Talks

I have been engaged as a guest speaker for numerous corporates both locally and abroad.

As I have been involved in all levels of the corporate world including running my own businesses and holding high level management positions in various top international companies, both locally and abroad, I am able to bring a unique aspect to guest speaking. I am able to draw on the many relative parallels from competing, to achieving champion status in the highly respected international big wave areana, to all aspects of being successful in business, sport and life.

Each talk can be altered and changed to the specific corporate needs, target audience and/ or objectives.

My guest speaking appearances review my story of the Mavericks Big Wave event win and the obstacles that Chris had to be overcome to achieve such great success, under extreme & highly dangerous conditions
