Few would not know of Walter Mikac’s story. The loss of his wife and two young daughters at the Port Arthur shootings in Tasmania in 1996, touched the world.

In the years that followed, Walter channelled his grief into a purpose. He wrote books, lobbied for gun law reform, and helped set up a charity, The Alannah and Madeleine Foundation for child victims of crime.

He has been named a National Living Treasure and has spoken at the National Press Club.

Walter is now remarried with a daughter and is sharing his insights through keynote speaking, workshops and mentoring, with the focus on:
