 Rod
Briggs is a sought-after international lecturer and consultant whose area of
expertise lies in the mind sciences. He lectures on Stress Control,
Trauma, Emotional Aptitude, Problem Solving, Interpersonal Relationships, Crisis
Management, Personal Performance, Situation Awareness and Psycho-Neuro
Immunology (to mention a few) to government departments, military and peace
keeping forces, members of the medical fraternity, health departments, corporate
and private groups from all over the world.
In
addition to this, Rod works as a highly respected mediator and consultant to
corporations, families and private groups. When he speaks, hearts open,
minds become inspired and people become motivated.
His teachings are gentle, fun and informative with entertaining stories,
transformational wisdom and insights.
He
was born in the UK with only one working lung, which left him a virtual cripple
and unable to participate in the compulsory two hours per day sports sessions at
the English Grammar School at which he was educated. He was, instead, relegated
to the schools’ eight hundred-year-old library, which he saw as an opportunity
to study the mind sciences in his search for ways of overcoming his physical
inadequacy. These studies included many and various philosophies and mental
disciplines, which enabled him to triumph over his disability. He relocated
to South Africa at thirteen and, using Martial Arts to strengthen his
underdeveloped body, he obtained black belts in Judo, Karate, and Jiu-Jitsu.
This led to a study of the philosophies behind the fighting arts and added
further to his knowledge of the mind.
His
tertiary studies included, amongst others, Science and Theology as well as
Psychology at the University of the Witwatersrand and the University of South
Africa.
He
is a frequent guest on local and international talk shows and when not traveling
presenting seminars, talks and lectures, he resides on the Dolphin Coast of
Natal. |
