About Travis
A Senior Consultant with Oasis since 2019, Travis brings over 20 years’ experience in community services, organisational management and social entrepreneurship. Founder and former CEO of the celebrated children’s charity 12 Buckets, he has a deep appreciation for the complexities and pressures that leaders face when navigating change, encountering roadblocks, managing staff and stakeholder expectations, and holding unresolved tensions.
Travis is an accomplished public speaker and facilitator, able to make complex ideas accessible and digestible through engaging storytelling and his conversational manner. In highly charged conflictual environments, he offers parties structured and carefully managed processes to identify ways of productively moving forward on issues being faced.
Trusted by Executives and their teams in the Education, Building, and Software Development sectors, including PC Locs (Aus)/LocknCharge (US/UK) and John Septimus Roe Anglican Community School (Aus), Travis is passionate about supporting people as they cultivate their unique expression of authentic and courageous leadership – a type of leadership marked by rigorous and deep personal reflection and learning, along with exceptional conversation competence (knowing how to have the right conversations, at the right time, in the right way).
Travis is the Head of Personal Excellence and the Resilience and Wellbeing Coach at West Perth Football Club. He oversees West Perth's WAFLW Personal Excellence Hub, aimed at nurturing comprehensive personal growth and development, both within and beyond the sporting arena. Travis enjoys increasing opportunities to partner with High Performance Athletes as they work to understand the mental side of peak performance. Based on Ontological Coaching Theory and Methodology, his strengths-based development approach helps athletes connect their mental and emotional world to their sporting career. Experiencing shifts at this level increases the quality of an athlete’s performance while deepening their sense of satisfaction outside the arena.
Travis is grateful to be the husband of Emily and father of Boston, Tahlia and Banjo. He is an aspiring long-distance runner who winds down in the kitchen by cooking up a storm!
Travis’s accreditations include:

Travis has written some articles here:
How do you walk the terrain of what we might describe as broken trust?
How do we mend a relationship and return to the good of what that relationship produces?
How do we navigate and frame conversations with a colleague in whom our trust is diminishing?
How do we approach the next interaction with the affected co-worker or client?
The gift in this event, though, was in how it triggered an unexpected learning journey for us around the art of the difficult conversation.
I'm talking about the kind of conversation that guides us through the terrain of missed expectations and disappointment without doing further damage; a conversation that preserves relationship instead of ruining it.
