Helen Parker is a film and television producer and a screenwriter. She is in the 2% club. That's the 2% of screenwriters whose work is licensed in Hollywood. Her aim of a Hollywood Oscar nomination is lofty but to even get this far, Helen's extraordinary career needed a driving force. Helen calls it the "Power of Therefore".

We all know the value of setting and achieving goals - but why is this rarely enough? When one action triggers another action - the therefore effect kicks in.

Helen's incredible career has taken her to: 17 countries, she has filmed in Moscow with the elite hockey players of the 72 Summit series as a guest of Putin, had tea in Buckingham palace with the Royal family, flown test flights in new planes (filled with water ballast) with Qantas pilots in France, been to Peace Keeping Zones with the Australian military, filmed in three prisons, interviewed three Prime Ministers in the Prime Minister's office. Helen has flown 250 hours in helicopters - doors off while filming, mustered cattle in the Outback, interviewed mafia members, she swam in crocodile infested waters and was given exclusive access to Red Bull's Formula One garage and pit crew during an F1 grand prix event (Team Weber).

Helen's first career goal was to get a job in ABC TV in the national newsroom which she did at age 19... against thousands of applicants. That role lit a flame and therefore opened doors to extraordinary adventures and a life of learning that Helen shares with corporate teams and associations.
