Nikki Bonus
CEO / Founder - Life Skills Group
Professional Bio
Nikki Bonus is an experienced Edtech founder and CEO of Life Skills Group, harnessing more than 20 years of deeply personal and professional experience in the development and delivery of social-emotional literacy programs for individuals, organisations, and most importantly, teachers and students. Nikki’s work has helped give voice to more than 850 schools, connecting with 20,000 teachers and 500,000 primary school children to build a continuing evidence base of what works to measure, report and implement real improvements in wellbeing for school communities.
She was one of a 100 CEOs that was invited to participate in the Google - Engage - Search Inside Yourself leadership program, San Francisco, training her to deliver Transformational Professional Development experiences backed by world experts in neuroscience, leadership, mindfulness and emotional intelligence.
She epitomises resilience having been out of home by the age of 16. The tragedies of mental health contributed to her brother taking his life at a young age. Her intrinsic motivation is the belief that no matter where you were born, no matter what family you were born into, anything is possible. Her commitment is to work in collaboration with governments, school communities to see Social Emotional and Physical Literacy as valued as academic performance.
Thus, Life skills group was founded, out of the heart of a social entrepreneur with a mission to reach all children regardless of socio-economic background. For more than a decade, Nikki’s team of 80 teachers has worked hand in hand with Principals, teachers, and students across 850 schools, reaching 500,000 primary school children, to build software and a continuing evidence base of what works for school communities.
Nikki is a powerful storyteller with a message of leadership, compassion, hope, kindness, and courage. It is her ability to use stories to connect and relate to others that make her unique. Her humility is a strength that allows her to nurture and build stability, connection, and flourishing in communities by engaging and educating educators, leaders, and our government. It is the inter-systematic approach to a holistic approach to the whole child that is the innovation that sets Nikki apart. It is about building global communities, empowering others to be collaborative, and creating an impactful movement. Our future generations are in all of our hands.
