Meeting 974
May 20, 2026
From the rigid structures of a South African military-era education to the vibrant classrooms of eight different countries, Roger’s journey is a masterclass in transformation.
Toastmasters is proud to present a speaker whose life has been a 26-year global odyssey. After navigating the complexities of international leadership and senior management, Roger has returned to his roots as a facilitator of learning—proving that our most profound growth often leads us back to the heart of what we love.
Why You Should Attend
In this thought-provoking session, Roger will pull back the curtain on his own narrative—moving from a prescribed worldview to a global perspective fueled by curiosity and geopolitical insight.
This isn’t just Roger’s story; it’s a mirror for your own. You will be invited to:
Reflect on the “umbrellas” that shaded your early years.
Examine the pivotal moments that forced a change in your direction.
Evaluate your personal evolutionary journey and where it’s leading you next.
Whether you are a lifelong learner, a leader in transition, or someone looking to better understand your own history, this keynote will provide the tools to begin unravelling your past to build a more intentional future.
