Considered one of South Africa's foremost creative thinkers, Conn Bertish is a highly acclaimed creative director who has been recognized internationally.
In addition to his creative expertise, he is a resilience trainer, a cancer survivor, and a big wave surfer.

Alongside this venture, he also developed the Happy People are Harder to Kill training programs, which medical professionals support.
Conn's unique approach to empowerment, which combines creativity and resilience, has been honed in collaboration with a team of professors, doctors, psychologists, and behaviour-change specialists.
