TedXQueenstown - Jamie Fitzgerald

Jamie Fitzgerald is a world-class adventurer,motivational speaker and leadership development consultant, providing tools to inspire you and your team to achieve more.

Modern day adventurer who pushes the boundaries of human endurance and helps others demonstrate the principles of success.


Enduring and enjoying through adventure with others - then reflect...

Why do we do the things we do?

Proven efficiencies of the flight of geese...

Lessons from the red billed quela?

Exploring the rules of their acton:

  1. Fly at the same speed
  2. Turn to where you perceive the centre of the group to be
Self preservation... 

Common honey bee - serves the need of man like none other...
Complex, symbolic language... all the bees we see in the garden are girls... Bee mindset - sustainability with queen at the middle...

First crossings - check out the recording...

Questioning - why are we here?

Bringing a story to others... Making others understand a journey...

19 crews.... Transatlantic adventure...

"Through out the sea anchor or keep rowing" - in life...

Embrace what you are doing... even if it seems as if you are going nowhere... keep focused and do what you are doing to get where you want to be....

One conversation - if it is the best conversation - can be the difference that you need to make in life...

Sometimes when you think you are making the least progress - actually you are making the most....

Every species of creature, or team, work tirelessly to something that is important to them... alignment to a shared purpose... alignment not agreement...

Believing in and having a shared purpose makes the difference... be VERY clear about what you stand for and what your purpose is!!!

If you don't understand what you stand for you'll fall for anything....
