Darren Hill

When faced with change, do you thrive or struggle to survive? Change is nothing new, but it’s now moving at an unprecedented rate. The disruption modern businesses now face is unprecedented and require teams that are comfortable with being on the edge of uncertainty; teams that thrive in uncertainty.

Darren’s clients consistently describe him as ‘grounded and refreshingly real’ – something that’s reflected by an ongoing re-engagement rate with clients nearing 100%. This same description can also be applied to Darren’s keynote presentations.

As Executive Director at Pragmatic Thinking, a behaviour and motivation strategy company, Darren understands people like few others do. It’s this intricate knowledge of people and culture that sees him delivering high-impact keynote presentations at conferences as well as designing, delivering and implementing complex, cross-layered multi-year culture change programs inside organisations.

Darren’s a best-selling author of three books including Dealing with the Tough Stuff: How to achieve results from key conversations which has now been translated into three languages,
