Kennedy Baptist College

Peter had the students and staff members completely engaged throughout his presentation. His stories are inspiring, and he connects so well to his audience. Usually when it comes to Q + A's, the students can be a bit shy. Not on this occasion! To see so many teenagers raising their hands, asking meaningful questions relating to goal setting, resilience, mental health, and sports psychology was awesome to witness. I'd highly recommend Peter to any school or corporate business seeking an exceptional public speaker.

Reserve Bank of Australia

We were lucky to have Olympic runner and Commonwealth Games medallist Peter Bol as our keynote speaker for our 'R U OK?' Day event today. Peter shared his experience of how his losses and failure lead to the most growth in his career. Dealing with adversities, having confidence in yourself, and believing in the power of consistency are all factors that have contributed to Peter's success. 'You can do all the physical training you want, but you have to make sure your mind is right'. A key takeaway of Peter's talk was the importance of community and family, 'The medals are a bonus, the people and the experiences are the most important'. The RBA would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Peter Bol for sharing his journey and lessons learnt along the way.
