Quinton Coetzee Biography

Quinton Coetzee was born in the Namib Desert and having spent most of his young life in the bush, began his working career near there as a hunter.  He later attained a university degree in the natural sciences after which he specialised in bush survival.  Today he is considered one of the leading bushcraft specialists in Southern Africa and as a motivational speaker, there are few better.

Explorer and Conservationist

Quinton has always had a passion for expeditions.  He has explored remote areas from the icy sub-Antartic to the sweltering deserts of the Middle East and has spent time with ‘vanishing’ tribes in Africa and the Amazon jungles.

As a conservationist, he has managed the animal collection for one of the largest Zoological Gardens in Africa, where he was committed to the breeding of many endangered species worldwide.  In this regard he is well known for his commentary in print, on air and television as a presenter of the popular wildlife programme “Veldfocus” on 50/50.  He has also trained as a classical pianist.

Motivational Speaker

Quinton’s message has universal appeal and worldwide, his talks assist people to tap into their natural potential to improve their business skills and performance and to gain a better understanding of themselves and others.

Quinton believes that every person is endowed with a deep-seated instinct to survive… SURVIVE AT ALL COSTS AND AGAINST ALL ODDS!  His powerful and riveting introduction leads an audience into the fascinating world of San Bushman Tribe (the Company), their bush environment (the Marketplace), the wildlife on which they thrive (the Clients) and the predators with which they compete (the Competitors).  Using spectacular slides, he illustrates that everyone has dormant or under-utilized business skills.  These skills need only to be set free or “unlocked” in order to realize maximum gain, both personally and for the company.
