Michael Henderson

Corporate Anthropologist

Ferocious: Create Cultures that are Resilient, Courageous, Focused and Aligned

In this day and age no organisation can afford the luxury of an under-performing culture and yet many settle for just that. For organisations to stand a chance of surviving they need to be ‘’ferociously’’ committed to creating and inspiring high performance cultures. The keys to achieving this are simple and have been practiced by tribes for thousands of years to enable them to not only survive but prosper. In this powerful, insightful and practical keynote Michael will share what it takes for your organisation’s culture to thrive!

Michael has a degree in anthropology and has studied both traditional tribes and organisational cultures for 25 years. His pioneering work has helped numerous businesses align workplace culture to business strategy.


Justin JonesSpecial Guest Speaker

Extreme South - To Hell and Back: A Journey Across a Frozen Wasteland

This is the story of the first ever unsupported trek from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole and BACK. “Jonesy” will take you on an enthralling and informative journey of what it’s like to survive down in the most inhospitable place on Earth. Despite months of training and research, nothing could prepare for brutality of pulling loads of 160kg, enduring temperatures as cold as -40˚C, as well as facing injury, whiteouts, crevasses, gear failure and slow starvation.

This feat of endurance is one of the greatest adventures of the decade, yet contains messages that can be applied in day to day life about the commitment to keep going and the commitment to a unified goal.

Business Coach

For the first time, three conferences and communities - SAP Supply Chain & Procurement, SAP EAM and SAP Business Analytics – are coming together to share, network and learn how companies are optimising their investment in SAP to achieve game-changing outcomes. It’s great value - because by registering for one conference you and your team get access to any of the 70+ sessions across all three. Here is a snapshot of the some of the great content presented at the co-located events:
