I help leaders improve their resilience, productivity and influence, so they achieve more in their lives and live boldly, happily and with less stress.
- Too many leaders live their lives at 100mph, deluding themselves that they thrive on the buzz whilst;
A) Cutting corners on important things.
B) Sacrificing precious things for trivial gains.
C) Over-promising on what they can deliver.
D) Living by instinct rather than calm reflection and intelligent strategy.
E) Letting down those who are closest to them.
The result? Broken marriages, long term health issues (mental and physical), under-performing teams costing thousands in lost revenue, unrealised personal potential, poor interpersonal relationships at home and work: who wants that?
- Too many leaders get drawn into things they'd rather avoid, or battles which are not theirs to fight, so they become:
A) Overwhelmed by the number of tasks they have to juggle.
B) Drained by the constant fire-fighting.
C) Distracted from the important things they should be addressing.
The result? burnt-out leaders who cannot cope with their roles, who struggle to handle their emotions and who make poor decisions when they most need to be smart: who wants that?
I'm passionate about creating a generation of healthy leaders, who are equipped to handle themselves when they're thrown into the raging, white water rapids of leading a team. I'm passionate about creating leaders who are successful at work, enjoy happy family life and are in good physical and mental health ... NO-ONE DESERVES TO MAKE THEMSELVES SICK THROUGH WORK!
It's this passion which fuels my speaking and coaching. I pride myself on delivering accessible, unique insights in an entertaining style, so as well as enjoying my talk, every person has learned something which they didn't know before.
In my spare time, I'm an outside, water-loving 43 year old, who proudly retains his juvenile sense of humour, is an expert dad dancer and ignores the fact that he's now middle-aged. I'm also a dad to 4 energetic kids, which means 2 things. 1) I have very little spare time, 2) I'm a taxi-driver, cleaner, porter, triage nurse, war-zone reporter, chief investigator, law enforcement officer, diplomat, relationship counselor, health & safety officer, multi-skilled entertainer, cook, maid, slave, expert choreographer and fashion consultant/guru (my teenage daughters would unanimously dispute the last two).
