Peter Baines is one of Australia’s leadership and disaster experts after 22 years with the NSW Police leading teams in response to acts of terrorism and natural disasters. Peter was part of the leadership team that responded to Bali after the bombings in 2002 and was called upon in 2005 to lead national and international teams in response to the Boxing Day Tsunami.
Creating sustainable leadership became a passion of his after witnessing the devastating effects of these disasters and was deeply touched by the number of children left orphaned. He created an organisation, Hands Across The Water, which has raised several million dollars without spending one cent of donors’ money on administrative costs since its inception. With this they have built two orphanages, purchased a rubber plantation to ensure a sustainable and regular income and are currently constructing a medical and community centre in the KhaoLak region of Thailand. Hands also is in a joint venture with Victoria University which provides education to students and staff from the Tsunami affected area of KhaoLak.
Peter’s awards include Australian of the Year NSW Finalist for 2010, Thought Leaders Socialpreneur of the year 2008 and the first Australian to be awarded the international honour of a Rotary Professional Excellence Award in 2008. He has completed university studies in Law, Forensic Science and post graduate studies in Management, and has advised Interpol in France and the UN Office of Drug and Crime in South East Asia.
Today Peter spends his time helping businesses build effective Sustainable Leadership programs through the unique mix of his leadership and corporate social responsibility initiatives. Peter has a diverse client base across many sectors including the leading financial institutions of Australia such as Commonwealth Bank, Westpac and NAB.
