The Game Changers podcast celebrates those true pioneers in education who are building schools for tomorrow. In this third conversation of Series Sixteen, we talk with Mykel Dixon.
Mykel Dixon is an award-winning speaker and author, master facilitator and recognised authority of Creativity, Culture and the Human Future of Work. He works globally with a stellar cast of fortune 500 and ASX 200 listed companies who want to liberate themselves from boring work, bland events and beige bosses.
A jazz musician by trade, gypsy by nature, fierce non-conformist and prolific anti-perfectionist, Myke leads a new wave of conscious, creative business leaders who strive to make work feel more like play, teams feel more like family, and organisations feel more like festivals of possibility.
In 2018, he was named Australia’s Breakthrough Speaker of The Year (by the Professional Speakers Association) and in 2021, his second book Everyday Creative was named the #1 Leadership book in Australia by the esteemed Australian Business Book Awards.
Blending his unique career and life experience, an obsession for audience participation and a magnetic stage presence, Myke’s live learning experiences are unrivaled. Fusing live music, spoken-word poetry, visual storytelling and spontaneous audience interaction. Just like that time you were upgraded to first class, once you’ve experienced a Mykel Dixon anything, it’s hard to go back to coach.
