For Business Leaders
Companies around the nation are struggling with how to best support their staff productivity and wellbeing. Staff are bombarded by competing technology, and often become distracted from the task at hand, their colleagues, or their family!
Brad has drawn on his clinical and research-based knowledge to develop the Sustainable Tech Diet to help professionals and companies learn more about the pros and cons of technology and how we can use it sustainably to extract all the benefits and limit the downsides.
For Education Leaders
Most children and teenagers are pretty resistant to anyone suggesting they need to reduce their screen time. Brad has developed both student and parent talks that emphasizes the “traps” of gaming and the tactics game and social media developers use to encourage us to keep playing. Armed with this information, he will challenge young people and their families to find a healthy balance in their screen time within their home
For Event and Conference Organisers

Brad has drawn on his clinical and research-based knowledge to develop his keynote to help learn more about the pros and cons of technology and how we can use it sustainably to extract all the benefits and limit the downsides.
