George D. Norris is regarded as Australia's first and most experienced Corporate Coach.
He commenced his business career at Caltex Oil Australia in 1958 as a Management Cadet and 16 years later departed as Training Manager. He then started his own business in 1974 as a Performance Management and Communication Consultant and in 1995 made the magic move into Management Mentoring and Corporate Coaching.
George is well known for his many years on Melbourne Radio 1377 3MP with his daily segment 'Shots of Inspiration' and later Magic 1278, where he presented his daily segments as 'The Life Coach'.
His four other books are titled 'Winning with Wisdom', 'Strategies for Success', 'Quotes and Words of Inspiration' and 'Moments on Management'.
George has studied in Germany, America, and Australia. He is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Company Directors, the Australian Institute of Management, and the Australian Marketing Institute where he was awarded a CPM as Certified Practising Marketer.
He has experienced the ups and downs of life, business and sport which have provided remarkable and extensive experience. As a visionary, George uses Nike's positioning statement, and Frank Sinatra's song to say, "I just did it - my way!"
