The Get More Guy

No doubt your first question is "Who is Warwick Merry?"  It is a fair question.  So here is a little bit about him and some of the things that he has done to give a better perspective.

He is from a small Victorian country town and has lived in many different parts of Australia as well as 12 months in Dallas, Texas.  He holds a Bachelor of Applied Science (Computing) and a Bachelor of Business (Accounting) but that doesn't stop him from being an energetic and entertaining presenter and facilitator.  What it does do is give a firm grounding in the basics of business as well as being very comfortable with technology.

For nine years he worked at EDS (now part of HP) in several different roles, starting as a Programmer/Analyst and ending as the Customer Service Evangelist for Australia/New Zealand.  He then moved on to the Account Manager role at Oracle where he was responsible for Telstra's $5 million contract.  He had to keep Telstra happy and it wasn't easy!  He left Oracle to start his own speaking and coaching business over 10 years ago and has been evolving that business since then.

The year in Dallas was working at the permanent Trade Show as an Ambassador for EDS.  This gave Warwick a massive exposure to the world of Trade Shows, including what works and what doesn't.  With his previous business partner, he also worked at Trade Shows in Spain, Italy, USA, Norway, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne.

But life is not all business!  To do what Warwick does, he needs a certain creative flair.  Over the years this has come out in many different ways.  These include:

Ø  Being a backing singer for Josh Groban during his 2007 Awake tour

Ø  Hosting a Friday morning "Waz B4 Work" breakfast radio show

Ø  Numerous amateur theatre performances (musical, comedy and drama)

Ø  Several TV commercials

Ø  MC for most of his friends weddings and significant birthdays

Ø  Stand up Comedy performances

Ø  Recording a CD with vocal group Mood Swing

Ø  Motor Cycle touring

Warwick's corporate experience, small to medium business experience, formal education, hectic social life and passion to Get More out of life put him in an excellent position to share with individuals and groups ideas and experiences for them to Get More.
