Apart from his extensive corporate background, Blake has the unique experience of working with hundreds of long term unemployed Australians. This group of people are typically demoralised, disenfranchised and drained of energy. His incredible success in motivating them back into work (some of whom having been unemployed for more than 23 years) has given him insights, tools and strategies that deliver real results. It isn't 'ra-ra', punch-the-air kind of stuff either. His practical approach is all based in science. It is engineering for the heart and the mind. That is why Blake is known as The Performance Engineer. He has a unique ability to re-wire attitudes, motivation and habits to achieve real results.
