When you began your career, (unless you started out as a public speaker) we can make an assumption that you never thought public speaking would become a key skill in your toolkit.However, it's unfortunately the reality for a lot of corporate folks, and even those outside of the corporate world. In fact, the importance of developing public speaking skills has become a necessity in many roles - which is why we've got Motivational Speaker and professional public speaker, Julian Mather, on this week's episode of the Less Chatter, More Matter podcast.A former stutterer turned professional keynote speaker, Julian shares his personal journey from dreaming of being a photojournalist to becoming a TV cameraman, to his eventual career change into magic and motivational speaking (a rollercoaster, right?). Even with the chaotic career path he's ventured, Julian highlighted the critical need for effective communication and public speaking while providing practical tips for improving speaking skills, overcoming the fear of being wrong, and mitigating the usage of filler words like 'um.' So... if you want to get better at speaking in front of people, or maybe you just want to hone your skills, sit back and get listening to this week's episode!Links mentioned in this episode:Julian's websiteJulian's LinkedInTemplate packsWorkshops and trainingChange Isn't Hard!

We are facing multiple planetary crises' from climate change, to biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse, rising pollution, mass migration, rising emissions, new pandemics, governments unwilling or incapable of calling an emergency, business as usual everywhere we look, and so much more. Is it any wonder people are feeling hopeless and desperate in the face of these serious threats? I mean, it doesn't look like we're doing anything about it at all!The idea that we have no voice in this fight, no ability to overcome the challenges we face, is a big issue we want to tackle. Because at this stage in the game, it is us - ALL of us - that really can get governments and businesses acting like our world is on fire, because it is. Of course, it takes courage to speak up and we are going to address the challenges, as well as many other issues that stop people from speaking out in defence of our future, and the future of our planet. To help me dig into this incredibly important topic, I am delighted to welcome three amazing individuals.

In this episode of Digital Transformation & Leadership Danny Levy talks to Julian Mather who has seen the world through many lenses. Through a telescopic sight as an army sniper. Through the TV lens as a globe-trotting cameraman for ABCTV, National Geographic and BBC. And through smoke and mirrors as a professional magician. He's traveled far but his longest journeys have been from behind the camera to in front of it. From stutterer to professional speaker. Now a video magician, he turns busy bosses into trusted leaders. He inspires you to unleash your inner video star and - like magic - be in two places at once, cut meeting times in half, vanish emails and volia!... more time to be the great leader you want to be. In this episode Julian shares his leadership lessons learned from his time as an army sniper, a globe-trotting cameraman and a magician, why video shyness isn't a life sentence and how to overcome it, and why the world's most effective yet inexpensive sales and marketing tool is the smartphone you already own.

Today's episode is all about video, and how non-digital natives can get the most out of the medium using nothing more than a smartphone. Our expert guest Julian Mather has an incredibly varied background, having gone from being trained to shoot people with a rifle (army sniper) to shooting people with a camera. Along the way, he became a Director of Photography at ABC-TV, as well as a professional magician, a period during which he established a successful Youtube channel generating 30 million video views and 140,000+ subscribers. Today, Julian helps busy 40-60yr olds build trust and authority using smartphone video. Julian's goal is to change how people think and feel about video, and he does it with unique content, storytelling, humour, practical tips ... and a bit of magic! Julian encourages people to shrug off their insecurities when it comes to being in front of the camera. He says: "Anybody can learn this. So if you're out there listening to this and thinking, I just have so much trouble (doing video) ... I'm worried I'll forget what to say, I'm worried about what people will think of me. I've spent my whole career building a level of status, I don't want to be on video and make mistakes and have that go on the record and damage me: you're thinking in a 20th century mindset." Julian and host Trevor Young discuss a range of video-related topics, including: The power of authenticity ("You can't be a little bit authentic," says Julian. "You're either authentic or you're not authentic.") The smartphone advantage ("If you can make {a video} and get that to market faster than your competitors, you have a smartphone advantage.")The perfection myth ("We think if we get on {camera} and we mess something up ... we don't want to do it because we think, oh, we'll mess up and people will talk about us. And the honest truth is - and you have to accept this - if you think that, you're conceited. I was conceited for those early years because I stopped myself getting on {camera} and just being authentic and being willing to make mistakes, because I thought people were going to talk about me.") New rules, new tools ("... you need a new set of rules and you need a new set of tools, and within those new set of tools, I advocate using smartphones.") Julian also discusses cheap but effective ways to improve lighting and audio quality. CONNECT WITH JULIAN WebsiteTwitterLinkedInYouTube

Video plays an enormously important role in attracting quality new hires to your business. You can no longer tell people you are a great place to work, you have to show them you are. But, as Mark Puncher, CEO of Employer Branding Australia, it is more important to show them that at times, you might not be the best place to work. That your business might drop the ball now and then. That your people are above all, human. That you are fallible. As he describes it, wonderfully imperfect. The time for representing your business to future employees as the polished facade of perfection is gone. That's just not how real life works and we all know it. To make perfect videos where not a wrong word is spoken, where no hair is not out of place, where you don't blink enough, where you look and sound like a politician staying on script is to be out of touch with what the market is asking for. Authenticity. Authentic videos do not mean unprofessional videos. Authentic videos are carefully created using skilled directors who nurture staff - who for many it is their first time in front of the camera - to help them tap into their empathy and vulnerability so they come across as real. This is who I am. This is what we believe. This is what we stand for. Want to be part of what we do? This is a great quote from Employer Branding Australia's website: “there aren't two versions of me. I am who I am, I say what I mean and ask the same of others.” We explore…. How important is video to creating your employer brand? Authentic video vs glossy corporate nonsense videos How Authentic Should I Be On Video? What Stops Your Staff Being Authentic On Video and What To Do To Help Them Is Your Business Story Out of Date for Modern Video Audiences? How To Get Better Quality Job Applications Using Video How To Get Staff To Feel Comfortable In Front of a Video Camera How To Interview Staff On Video To Tell Your Business's Story Why Being An Instagram Influencer May Make You A Bad Video Presenter Does Impostor Syndrome Stop You Making Your Own Videos A Trick To Get Comfortable In Front of a Video Camera A Trick To Give Your Videos A Human Touch What's the difference between Employer Branding vs EVP (employee value proposition)? Your employer brand lives mainly with your current and past people, and your target talent audiences - it's about how they think and feel about you as a prospective or current employer, and how that makes them behave. Your EVP (employee value proposition) is much more under your control. It's your talent offer or ‘people deal' in a nutshell. Beware though - you can say pretty much what you like in your EVP but if it's more aspiration than reality, you'll quickly be found out. Put another way, if you just talk the talk and don't walk the walk - you'll get found out. Integrity, trust, reputation are important online currencies. Be careful with them.

Marketers Club: Market your talent and earn what you're worth
If like so many entrepreneurs you have spent a small fortune buy various gadgets, devices, apps and tools to help you grow your business. But the only tool you really need to attract and win more customers is the device you already have in your pocket. That's right your smartphone is the only tool you need today to be able to create great video content that converts prospects into customers like magic. My guest this week is Julian Mather. Julian spent years working as a professional cameraman for the ABC, BBC and National Geographic and he says the only camera we need these days to make great marketing videos is a smartphone.
For as long as he could remember, he wanted to be a photo-journalist. But then he got sidetracked. While army sniper seemed like a good idea at the time, he found the telescopic sights of his rifle were starting to look more and more like a movie camera, and so he fell in love with film-making.Our guest this week is Julian Mather, a keynote speaker, and a video magician. As a video magician, he shows people that smartphone video ‘works like magic' to get customers to trust you, want to buy from you, and never leave you.This week in the ICT podcast, I talk with Julian about:Importance of video in today's worldMajor inhibitors for using video and how to get across themHow to combat the perfectionist and imposter mindset?How is being resourceful the key to your video journey?Julian has seen the world through many lenses.

What is the most effective way to reach your customers and clients? It's through video. But do you avoid making video content even when you know you should? Leveraging videos can help get you seen and heard to grow your business. However, a lot of people avoid making videos because they don't feel comfortable with the tech or don't feel confident in front of the camera. In this episode, we are joined by the video magician himself, Julian Mather. We deep dive into a chat about using video to get in front of your ideal clients, build unforgettable connections, overcome our nervousness when it comes to talking in front of the camera, and do all of these with only your smartphone and affordable online softwares.

In this week's episode of Change Your POV Podcast I have the pleasure of sitting down with Julian Mather as we discuss changing careers. This is a very scary proposition for many, and something we as Veterans do quite often, but why? Getting out of the military and landing in a specific career field that you spend the rest of your career in is not very common. Many, (myself included) find out through trial and error, that certain career fields don't end up as once thought or as advertised. The question becomes, do you have what it takes to walk away from a career in spite of your better judgment to pursue something different that you have more passion for? Many find themselves on that ledge but never make the leap. Julian Mather had what it took to make that leap of faith on more than one occasion. Check out this episode as he explains how and more importantly, why! It is critical, maintaining an open mind and willingness to Change Your Perspective as you progress through your life. Changing Careers once, twice, or even more may be what you NEED to do, you may not want to, and it will be uncomfortable, but necessary all the same! IN THIS PARTICULAR EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Transitioning from an Army Sniper to a 25-year career in photojournalism as a cameraman, to a children's magician to podcast host…? What? Ya, that's what I thought too so I had to have Julian on the show and I am very glad I did!

We kicked off season 3 of Reputation Revolution back in May with a look at the PERSONAL BRANDING UNIVERSE - a canvas on which I connect the various dots involved in building a credible and sustainable professional personal brand. These dots, or elements, flow from what I refer to as the four pillars of personal branding for professional people. They are: (1) ESTABLISH your voice (2) ENHANCE the credibility of your voice (3) EXTEND the reach of your voice (4) EXTRACT value from your voice. Here on the Reputation Revolution, each episode builds on at least one pillar. For example, in episodes 150 and 174, I chat with Mark Masters and Eli Trier respectively about the power of building one's community of like-minded people. Creating video content, including video live streaming, is all about enhancing the the credibility of your voice. In short, if you want to build a credible profile and trusted reputation in the marketplace, video should definitely be on your content creation radar. We've had some terrific guests in season 3 sharing their ideas and expertise around all things video - Julian Mather, live streaming guru Ian Anderson Gray, and Tristan White, a successful entrepreneur who runs one of Australia’s largest physiotherapy practices. We've also covered other elements of the Personal Branding Universe in season 3 - for example, writing a book to build profile and enhance your professional credibility. Writing productivity geek Bec Evans told us in episode 158 that there are various internal and external roadblocks authors often encounter when writing their book. Suzy Jacobs, founder of Activator Academy, took is through the importance of values in episode 155. Most critical in personal branding is to stand for something. So says Steve Sammartino, a leading futurist, best-selling author, media commentator and keynote speaker. In episode 166, Hillary Weiss introduced us to a concept she calls the ’statement piece’ brand - an antidote to the “sea of sameness on the internet”. And what of social media? It's such a critical aspect of building a personal brand, particularly one underpinned by a credible thought leadership positioning in the marketplace. Just ask California trial lawyer, Mitch Jackson, author of the book The Ultimate Guide to Social Media For Business Owners, Professionals and Entrepreneurs. I've long referred to Twitter the 'influence channel', and that's how Dr Emma Beckett sees it too. A key outcome of Emma's social efforts, particularly on Twitter, is interest from mainstream media, resulting in editorial coverage, including interviews on radio and national television. If you want to build a successful authentic personal brand, it's critical to show your human side - this is particularly the case for leaders, entrepreneurs and professional experts who are in the public eye and front people for a business, organisation or social enterprise. Want to see what this looks like? Look no further than Alan and Emily Braithwaite, founders of several UK-based businesses, including online visibility agency Yellow Tuxedo. If you want to feel inspired about the value of showing up consistently, get loads of ideas about how to maximise your SEO and repurpose your content, and learn how to wrap it all up in a very human way, you'll love listening to this one - episode 169 of the Reputation Revolution podcast.
Julian Mather is one unique human being on a quest to demonstrate the power of unlearning and re-invention and it all starts with you.As his greatest experiment, Julian has been everything from an Army Sniper, Magician and now a Smartphone Video Evangelist.His simple and practical tips to changing self start with owning up, wising up and stepping up and letting go of the toxicity of comparison to others and living an identity that no longer aligns with your passion.
Thank you for joining us here on Reputation Revolution, the podcast that’s all about growing your sphere of influence and creating more IMPACT by building a credible personal brand that’s recognised and respected for all the right reasons. During the course of the last two episodes, we looked at the need for emerging thought leaders to put themselves out there - to stand up, have an opinion, establish our voice - and the need to create content to reinforce and amplify that voice. We looked at live streaming and public speaking; in this episode, we focus on producing video using the smartphone. Video is a powerful tool in enhancing the credibility of your voice and extending the reach of your story and your message. In short, if you want to build a credible profile and trusted reputation in the marketplace, video should definitely be on your content creation radar. Host Trevor Young, aka 'The PR Warrior', walks us through the types of videos that can help build thought leadership for one's personal brand. Then it's over to this week's expert guest - smartphone video evangelist, Julian Mather. Julian says the world is "hungry for truth" and explains how "authentic, agile and inexpensive videos" can be used to spark conversation and build trust with viewers. The problem is, Julian says, "we've all got this aversion to being on camera". The interview includes references to: *** one of the best introductory bios you'll ever hear! *** how Julian is inciting a business video rebellion *** why your smartphone is like an "anti-invisibility machine for your business" *** how to overcome fear of being on-camera by using Julian's "head, heart and hands" approach to video-making *** get someone to critique your videos, but not anyone from your family! "Your family are your worst critics," says Julian. *** "Fail quickly, fail quietly ... rinse and repeat, and just keep trying." You can't win this new game if you're playing by the old rules, says Julian. Connect with Julian: WEBSITEFACEBOOK TWITTER

One of the biggest benefits that come from pivoting a career is that it shows you the freedom you truly have to reinvent yourself. The fear of starting over lessens with each jump and that's why so many #quitters go on to have multiple career changes. That freedom is such a blessing because you'll quickly learn that there is a lot of trial and error in finding your next career step. It is precisely through those many failures that you are led to where you need to be. This week I spoke with Julian Mather about his own process through many career pivots. After failing out of high school, he took that failure and decided that his education was in his own hands and chose to become a life long learner. After leaving high school, Julian joined the army and became a sniper for a number of years. He then started a 25-year career as a photojournalist/tv-camera man, globetrotting and documenting people doing incredible stories of people doing incredible things. What's amazing about his story is that he was at the top of his career and loved his job, and yet, he felt a calling to do something more. He walked away from his career at the age of 48. (Something a lot of people never muster up the courage to do!). He wanted to teach children valuable lessons about philanthropy and helping others. When his first foray into entrepreneurship failed, Julian went on to fulfill his passion by becoming a successful children's entertainer and magician for a number of years. He started a YouTube channel that garnered over 130,000 subscribers and 30 million views. That channel led him to creating a business out of showing people how to be in the kids' entertainment space. He has since sold that business and is now re-inventing himself once again. He is teaching businesses how to use video to leverage their sales and marketing. I loved Julian's story so much because of his insight on reinvention and starting over. Here is what we chat about in this episode: Why it's important to adopt a learning mindset. Why you are 100% responsible for your life. How change is a process and not an event. And so much more!

This episodeWes and Julian explain the importance of storytelling
This episode is an introduction to Wes and Julian, where they share experience in the film industry and why they now love smartphone videos
What hasn’t Julian Mather done? Army sniper, international cameraman, professional speaker and now he empowers small business to film professional-quality videos using only their smart phones. It was great to talk to such a well-travelled man who has followed his heart and never taken the obvious route. See some of Julian’s top tips below: ** There’s a big difference between being taught something and learning something. There is more information out there than ever before, so utilise it! ** Don’t be afraid to leave an industry at the top of your game. If you have a burning desire to do something else, follow your heart. ** Everybody needs a coach. Human beings cannot see their own blind spots, but other people can. ** Always have an exit plan for your business. That doesn’t mean you should quit tomorrow - it just means that you should focus your planning. ** Don’t underestimate what your phone can do to shoot video. The power of computation is beginning to overtake the power of optical photography. In this episode of Business Brain Food you will learn: ** How to keep yourself fresh through learning ** The difference between individualism and team play ** The importance of video to modern business ** How to simplify video ** How Linkedin is prioritising video ** How to overcome imposter syndrome Resources mentioned in this episode: ** Do you think you have what it takes to become a Business Excelerator™ at Max My Profit?

JULIAN MATHER says the day the school system taught conventional career planning he missed it. In fact the school system must have recognised Julian was a chronic truant. As his life progressed he self-educated reading between the lines of books to find secrets to turning his obsession into his profession. From high school failure to Army sniper to globe trotting TV cameraman to professional magician to accidental You Tube personality to online entrepreneur he hasn’t felt he’s worked a day in his life. Now at 57 Julian says he’s just beginning. His pivotal moment was in the UK at the same school celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay went. It’s a tough school with tough problems and Julian was filming a documentary for Australian TV, in which an inspiring policeman was talking to a tough bunch of fifteen year olds about the dangers of aerosol sniffing. Their bravado melted they were inspired. When three boys left, silently they removed aerosol cans from their bags and left them on the teacher’s desk. Something went off in Julian’s head. He had just witnessed the power of direct action. One policeman standing in front of thirty boys achieved more in thirty minutes, than million dollar government programs, which Julian had covered. That experience led him to walk away from his TV career at the top of his game to take a program into schools to teach children. Teaching skills like philanthropy, becoming a magician, to creating the world’s first online training academy for professional children’s entertainers and now speaking and writing on Courage. In this podcast Julian presents some profound tips to find a new skill, ones that can easily be learned at no cost. To learn more about Julian visit his website julianmather.com
Julian Mather was not interested in school, but that did not mean he was not willing to learn. When he got out of school, without prodding from anyone, he took himself to the library where he began a lifelong commitment to self-education and learning how to turn his obsessions into his professions. From high school failure to Army sniper to globe-trotting TV cameraman to kids’ entertainer to online entrepreneur, he really has not felt he has worked a day in his life. At age 55 he says he is just beginning to hit his straps.
Julian Mather, an Australian native, has a transformative story that underscores his ever-evolving entrepreneurial spirit. For over 25 years he’s told stories as a cameraman for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and prior to that, he was a professional sniper in the Australian Army. Julian has also been a magician; founding Julian’s Magician School and creating an immense online community. When bridged together, this diverse background of experiences has helped Julian master his skills and now enables him to power his next adventure. Julian is exploring ways to help people with change; going through change — something he clearly knows a lot about. He’s practically a king of reinvention, and knows how to make it work. Julian has this fascinating story of adventures, exploration, and he continues to keep discovering. He’s also a terrific guy, and it’s easy to love his can do attitude and DIY approach to learning whatever he’s interested in.

A chronic truant, he self-educated and read between the lines to find the secrets to turning his obsession into his profession. From high school failure to Army sniper to globe trotting TV cameraman to kids entertainer to online entrepreneur he really hasn’t felt he has a worked a day in his life. And at 55 he says he’s only just beginning to hit his straps. Julian joined me for a high-energy chat about realizing your career potential after age 40; how to use your own life experience/journey to create content that others can benefit from; shifting from an hourly rate model to charging for value; and tales from his own unique life story. "The day and age of the massive corporations that take care of us from beginning to end are over. That’s just a reality. Workforce change is upon us. It is time to look for alternatives. As a 40+ worker, you must expand your options. Allow me to show you the way. In the decade or so that I've been earning income online something struck me along the way. The 20 to 30 year olds are taking the lead with this but they have relatively little experience to impart. 40,50,60 year olds don’t even know about this and they have rich experience that is going to waste." About Julian: This is the best time ever to be over 40. Never has it been so easy to leverage your life experience, your hard won knowledge, your relative financial stability, your wits and your deep down belief that you have more to say, more to give, more to ‘be’, than just a cog in the big post industrial workforce.

In this week’s episode of Change Your POV Podcast I have the pleasure of sitting down with Julian Mather as we discuss changing careers. This is a very scary proposition for many, and something we as Veterans do quite often, but why? Getting out of the military and landing in a specific career field that you spend the rest of your career in is not very common. Many, (myself included) find out through trial and error, that certain career fields don’t end up as once thought or as advertised. The question becomes, do you have what it takes to walk away from a career in spite of your better judgment to pursue something different that you have more passion in? Many find themselves on that ledge but never make the leap. Julian Mather had what it took to make that leap of faith on more than one occasion. Check out this episode as he explains how and more importantly, why! It is critical, maintaining an open mind and willingness to Change Your Perspective as you progress through your life. Changing Careers once, twice, or even more may be what you NEED to do, you may not want to, and it will be uncomfortable, but necessary all the same! IN THIS PARTICULAR EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Transitioning from an Army Sniper to a 25-year career in photojournalism as a cameraman, to a children’s magician to podcast host…? What? Ya, that’s what I thought too so I had to have Julian on the show and I am very glad I did!

Magician Business Website | Podcast Kids Entertainer Hub | Podcast Success Quotes From Fred: Anything worth doing is worth doing right! Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon…must inevitably come to pass! — Paul J. Meyer From Bobbie: I don't want you to ever look back at your life and have any regrets. — Bobbie's Dad Gigs on Ships! • What sort of shows are they looking for? • You need to be good with a very diverse crowd. You need to be comfortable with people from all walks of life. • You need at least a 50 minute act. Fred and Bobbie have two 45's and a 30 minute magic class. • You live with your audience. • You have to be "people people." It's all about relationships. • You need a demo reel that's specific to the cruise ship market. The agent needs to "see you on their stage." • Your demo reel also needs to sell you as a person too. Tug at the heartstrings. • Don't do your reel in the same order as your show. Lead with your strongest piece. • Figure out what sets you apart and capitalize on that. • Working with agents vs. the cruise director. • Pros:you get to work in the best, most equipped theaters in the world, no overhead expenses, you only work a couple nights per week, it's a dream lifestyle. • Cons: You're stuck on the ship, you can't just pick up and go somewhere. You miss family events like holidays and funerals. Since you share bunks, if you're in a couple's relationship and have a fight, there's nowhere for you to go. • How to keep things in order at home on land while you're away at sea. Their Online Course on Cruise Ship Gigs Gigs on Ships is a 9-week course where Fred and Bobbie literally open up their business to help those who want to land a cruise ship gig. It has three modules: 1. Building Foundation - preparing yourself and show for ships. 2. Getting the gig. 3. Life at sea and how to be successful.
