Keynote Speaker

Mark Stanway

I deliver compelling and thought provoking talks on a wide range of topics designed to educate, inspire and create lasting impact. Drawing from my own life changing workplace accident, I share powerful insights into the real consequences of workplace safety lapses and the ripple effects an accident can have not just on the individual but on colleagues, families and organisations as a whole.

Beyond workplace safety, I dive into critical conversations about mental health, offering practical coping strategies to help individuals and teams build resilience in high pressure environments. I also provide guidance on career opportunities within the construction industry, helping aspiring professionals navigate their paths with confidence.

For students studying construction management, I offer valuable expertise on essential site management skills, bridging the gap between theory and real world application. Each talk is tailored to the audience, creating a meaningful and engaging experience that encourages reflection, growth and positive change within workplaces and educational settings alike.
