Robert J Elrington

Robert J Elrington's own story is the material. He grew up in an orphanage from the age of five until eleven, spent six years in the Australian Army with service in Malaysia, Borneo and Vietnam, started in business at twenty-five and built serious wealth by thirty-six. Along the way he created the first financial planning company to list publicly in Australia, won national and international awards for selling and marketing, and studied with business figures including Deepak Chopra and Tony Robbins. The National Library of Australia has recorded and archived the whole life story. He was later commissioned by a hospital committee to present his programs to the federal Health Minister, raising money to prevent suicide among medical professionals, and was nominated for the Pride of Australia Medal for mentoring work and for creating Teen Life Coaching. He speaks on entrepreneurship, communication, mentoring and wealth building, and runs workshops as well as keynotes.
