Switch Thinking can help you perform at your best when you need it the most.

Profile

Dr. Ken Hudson specialises in unlocking amazing performance in leaders, groups and teams - in minutes!

He is the inventor and author of a new book called Switch Thinking, published by Wiley.

Moments matter more than ever. Yet too many leaders fail to meet the moment. This is not due to a lack of preparation or effort. It is because they get stuck in their own thinking habits. Being able to switch your thinking in pressure moments is the new frontier of leadership performance.

Dr Ken Hudson is a lively, engaging keynote speaker, trainer, mentor and facilitator. He works with leaders and their teams to boost performance in moments that matter. These can be in presentations, workshops, interviews, review sessions or any coaching or leadership sessions.

Switch Thinking is fast, easy, empowering and energising. It is the missing link in any change, leadership, high performance or innovation program as it can help you generate results now!

Ken is also the best-selling author of The Idea Generator (Allen & Unwin), The Idea Accelerator (Allen & Unwin) and Speed Thinking (Allen & Unwin). All of which have been internationally released.

His new book on Switch Thinking is due out in August, 2026 (published by Wiley).

He has been Marketing Director for American Express, has played first-grade cricket and soccer, is a 33rd Generation Disciple in Shaolin Kung Fu, and holds a Ph.D. from the University of Western Sydney, an MBA from the University of New England and a Bachelor of Business from the University of Technology Sydney.
