This page gives you some background on me, .........
Everything in my life is not perfect. I have the challenges we all have raising a family and working in todays climate, sometimes its hard, sometimes its easy, sometimes you just need something you can enjoy.
I enjoy standing in front of a group to deliver a speech, presentation, or training. I savor those first few minutes in front of the group, when you look at them, you know they are feeling like they are in a dentists waiting room, sometimes you can even hear a drill in the background and they don't even realise yet that you are about to lead them on an incredible journey of learning and discovery. You are about to create for them an experience that everybody will enjoy.
My background helps. It is as varied and diverse as the people l work with, l have worked in warehousing, served with The Royal Marines, worked in retail, customer service, delivering training and spent time unemployed.
I started to coach people in 1989. I studied hypnotherapy and was amazed at how easily people could learn self hypnosis and use it to make changes. In 1998 I studied NLP and trained to become an NLP Practitioner because the skills and the techniques involved made it even easier to help people to make fantastic changes. I have taken these skills and techniques and applied them to my coaching practice as well as my delivery of training and public speaking.
I believe in people. They can change, they can achieve anything they want, sometimes its just a bit of work, sometimes it is just helping people to discover that they can do it, sometimes it is delivering the proverbial kick in the butt.
I consider myself to be really lucky. Yes l have challenges and things don't always work out the way we want them but delivering training, speaking to groups and coaching change with individuals fulfills for me an old proverb: "Do something you enjoy and you will never work a day in your life"
I deliver training to groups regularly. I enjoy being invited to talk to local groups I also enjoy delivering training especially Defib and adult basic life support because l feel everybody should have these basic skills in case of an emergency, I actively support first aid trainings and the introduction of first responders and public access defibs to our community.
Here are just some evaluations of trainings l have done.
