Steven Bradbury Olympic Champion, Champion Speaker and genuine onstage Motivator and Entertainer
Steven Bradbury – Motivational Speaker (Steven thinks that term sounds Un-Australian and prefers to call himself a real life speaker)is a unique skillset, and wow, talk about blowing your own trumpet !
The transitioning for Steven Bradbury from being an expert speed skater to an expert motivational speaker has been an interesting ride over the last 10 years. Nowadays he works with a professional speech writer and a comedian to continually hone his presentation skills. He has presented at over 650 conferences and events in 12 countries and still loves it. He loves the adrenalin before going onstage and loves that his strategies for success in business and in life are able to inspire and help so many people. Passion, Persistence and Teamwork are what have gotten Steven to where he is today and he would love the opportunity to instill these traits in your team at your next event.
Steven Bradbury is also an experienced ‘Master’ Of Ceremonies | Conference Facilitator and even does stand-up Comedy. He doesn’t call himself a comedian but seriously is there anyone on the planet better known for standing up….
Never Give Up !
Some people say Steven Bradbury is a celebrity. Fortunately for his clients Steven Bradbury has NEVER thought of himself as a celebrity. He is professional, down to earth and after his presentation is over he always takes the time to mingle with the audience. Steven Bradbury prefers to fly economy class and loves to work with clients before the event to tailor his presentation to specific client needs. Steven Bradbury works directly with all his clients (no agent as a middle man), he’s a good bloke, has an incredible product and comes with zero BS.
Steven Bradbury created history when he won Australia and the Southern Hemisphere’s first Winter Olympic Gold Medal. Steven Bradbury won fans the world over for the honesty and humility he showed after the win. He saw the victory as reward not for one race, but for 12 years of hard training that included more than his share of misfortune. A race accident in 1994 led him to being impaled on a rivals skate, creating a cut in his leg, so extensive he lost 4 litres of blood and required 111 stitches. He was extremely lucky to survive. A training mishap in the year 2000 broke his neck. After 6 weeks in a halo brace Steven Bradbury again fought his way back, and 18 months later that same neck was supporting an Olympic Gold Medal !
Steven Bradbury’s warm friendly nature, down to earth manner and use of humour is sure to help ‘break the ice’. The Steven Bradbury story is one of the true Aussie battler who overcomes much adversity to achieve the ultimate goal.

MIKE BUZZARD – BHP BILLITON
We were looking for a speaker who could engage a group of people who had encountered the most difficult period in the their working life. Steve Bradbury not only engaged the group, but was able to communicate a number of key messages that lifted the feel of the entire conference. His messages were extremely strong and could be easily assimilated to the audiences personal situation. The feedback from Steve’s presentation has been overwhelming, we would recommend Steve to any business who is looking to re-energize and engage.
