Former professional footballer turned global adventurer — TEDx speaker who completed a 2,000km triathlon in 12 days
Luke Tyburski was a professional footballer before injury — and seven surgeries — ended that chapter. What came next is the story he now tells on stages across the world. After rebuilding himself physically and mentally, he became a global adventurer: completing a double Ironman, and the Ultimate Triathlon — 2,000 kilometres from Morocco to Monaco, in 12 days.
He has delivered keynote talks in 16 countries across five continents, including the TEDx stage. He speaks openly about his battles with depression and burnout — not as cautionary tales, but as the raw material from which he built his frameworks on mindset, resilience and performance under pressure. His approach is grounded in neuroscience and psychology, but filtered through the kind of real-world pressure that most motivational speakers have only read about.
Luke's sessions are built for people who are tired of fluffy inspiration and want tools that actually work under stress. His frameworks on change, high-performance culture, mindset mastery, and leading through adversity are drawn from decades of experience in high-stakes environments — elite sport, extreme endurance, and the mental health battles that sit alongside both. For organisations that need their people to think differently when conditions get hard, Luke delivers the goods.
Luke Tyburski is a keynote speaker based in New South Wales who speaks on change management, leadership and mental health & wellbeing. Book through Executive Speakers Australia.
Do your employees see obstacles as opportunities and failing as positive?
Knowing how to build resilience through adversity allows individuals to see past undesired outcomes, and focus on what’s necessary to increase the understanding of the process needed to achieve their desired outcome.
The Building Resilience Through Adversity Workshop will help your employees view, think, and act in ways to help them perform, get out of their own way to enable success, and create opportunities through their new found perception of an outcome, situation, or scenario.

• Where do you focus
• Time management
• Controlling & choosing your attitude
• How to create & remove habits

I believe leadership is a choice.
What stops a lot of people to step up and be a leader, is they don’t know how!
Having an ability to lead not only yourself to accomplish individual goals, but also a team, organisation, or company to achieve a collective goal is easier than you may think.
The Performance Leadership Workshop outlines the steps of how anyone can become a great leader. Some individuals may seem like natural leaders, but like anything, leadership is something anyone can become better at, if they practise using the correct techniques.
WORKSHOP TOPICS THE PERFORMANCE LEADERSHIP WORKSHOP
• Communication
• Building confidence is like 1, 2, 3
• Decision making
• There are no big moments
• Lead yourself to lead others
