Meet Our Keynote Speakers
Beau Miles
Once upon a time Beau Miles called himself an award-winning filmmaker, best-selling author, competitive endurance athlete and inspired adventurer. Then he realised how egotistical this sounds, so now he calls himself a man having a healthy and much needed midlife crisis. Parent, YouTuber, steward of nature, inspired runner, maker of medium quality stone walls and an avid collector of wood, Beau‘s a storyteller who drinks too much caffeine and needs to shower more.
Chris Tanti
Chris Tanti is a former professional commercial diver who spent 17 years working in one of the world’s most demanding occupations. Over that time, he accumulated more than 1,000 days underwater, completed Australia’s deepest commercial dive at 273 metres, and built a career operating in constantly changing, high-pressure environments where preparation, teamwork and sound decision-making were critical.
Dr Clare Dallat
Risk Resolve is led by Dr Clare Dallat. Clare has spent over twenty years practicing and studying her craft. She realized many years ago that a significant gap existed in the tools and approaches needed to support schools and organizations to apply risk and safety research findings practically. Her desire to close this gap led to advanced study and research in safety science.
Her academic credentials and experience working at all levels in educational institutions enable her to support leaders in understanding and navigate the range of complexities and challenges faced in achieving enhanced risk and safety outcomes.
Brendon Munge
Brendon Munge is a Lecturer at the University of the Sunshine Coast (UniSC) in Queensland, Australia, specialising in Recreation and Outdoor Environmental Studies. As the Program Coordinator for both the Bachelor and Diploma of Recreation and Outdoor Environmental Studies, he focuses on foundational knowledge and experiential learning, often using bushwalking expeditions. Recognised with a Higher Education Academy Fellowship and several teaching awards, Brendon’s research interests include fieldwork pedagogies, the concept of “beneficial burden” in outdoor education, and outdoor educators/ leaders as “occupational athletes” and the implications for their work. He also works on internationalising student experiences through programs like the New Colombo Project
