The story

Find out when his engine stopped, and hear how he was able to deal with a dead engine at 700 feet over water.

One of many stories Fletcher has as a pilot, a successful television producer, a bestselling author, and an entrepreneur who managed to figure out how to combine his passion and get people to pay for it — which in this case is all about aviation.

Not only a successful aircraft salesman, he has also consulted for major aviation brands such as MD Helicopters and the New Zealand Defence Force. His first book series Lessons from the Sky really highlights Fletcher’s commitment to aircraft safety, ensuring every pilot gets home safely.

Speaking globally

I have had the privilege of collaborating with Fletcher over the past four years in various international locations. During this period, Fletcher has skilfully overseen an array of essential activities, including strategy summits, forum training sessions and moderator summits — not to mention the recent one in Scottsdale, Arizona with 200 participants, and notably our largest global conference, the Global Leadership Conference in South Africa, where he served as the distinguished facilitator for the Area Director Track.

Fletcher’s contributions have consistently been marked by his profound insights and extensive experience, underpinned by a captivating sense of humour. Time and again, Fletcher has succeeded in leaving our member leaders profoundly enriched.

Speaking in Australia

Working with Fletcher McKenzie has been an enlightening experience. With a keen ability to dissect complex scenarios, Fletcher offers invaluable insights into our business, personal dynamics and even the intricate challenges we face within our families.

Fletcher’s approach isn’t just about providing solutions; it’s about guiding us to understand the root of our problems, and empowering us with the tools and confidence to address them head-on. I would wholeheartedly recommend Fletcher to any group seeking transformative insights. Truly a game-changer in every sense!

Speaking as a Kiwi

Fletcher presented his TED-style talk “Lessons from the Pilot’s Seat” to over 80 members and guests of Entrepreneurs’ Organisation NZ at the Covert Theatre. Fletch delivered an exceptional talk that was both inspiring and heartfelt.

His natural speaking style engaged the audience, taking them on his personal journey from near disaster to thriving from his situation. He used his experience to help others in aviation safety, and showed how the systems he used in aviation can easily be adapted to improve real-life outcomes outside of aviation.
