Martin Brooker
CSC, FIML
NSW, AUSTRALIACommodore Martin Brooker (Retired) is a specialist in the space created by complexity, with an instinctive ability to scan any environment and identify where complexity, incongruence and ambiguity are obscuring line of sight and impacting leadership capability and capacity.
Martin Brooker's powerful keynotes draw on lived experience leading men and women in harm's way; the mistakes made, the critical lessons learned and how to lead teams and operational forces through ever-changing, high-performance situations which unfold in a state of constant ambiguity to deliver on mission critical imperatives.
A commanding presence on stage with deep insights and powerful lessons forged through every-day experiences, Martin is a naturally gifted story teller able to wrap an audience up – surprising them with his ability to draw humour into complex situations.
His insights, considered perspectives, and ability to breathe life into universally applicable lessons and laws of leadership shift the perspective of any audience – sharing simple strategies and fabulous mantras your audience will take with them as they leave the room.
Throughout a 37 year career as an officer in the Royal Australian Navy, Martin's operational service included command of an Amphibious Ship in the Middle East and the Pacific, the Navy's elite Clearance Divers, Deputy Commander of Australia's Joint Forces in the Middle East and Afghanistan, leading teams implementing cultural change programs in Defence and appointed Program Director for Navy's biggest change program, New Generation Navy.
His fascination with the Narrative of Leadership, the rise of the Accidental Leader, & the impacts of both at a broad economic through to an individual level has driven a post military career focussed on strengthening leadership capability.
Martin is a Fellow of the Institute of Managers and Leaders, a graduate of the QUT Business school and proud to be a RUOK Community Ambassador.
