Speaking Engagements

I currently offer 3x talks. Each lasts for 60 mins with time aside for Q&A afterwards. Should a tailored talk be required, please email me to discuss.
If you are looking for war stories, you have come to the wrong place.
Talks include references to and experiences from military and police service, but these are used as handrails for context.
My talks are taken from personal experience with psychological and performance coaching theory layered on top to illustrate the decision making processes, mistakes made, and lessons learnt.
Leadership Through Adversity
An exploration of overcoming stage 2 Cancer and the incumbent leadership challenges that followed, I will take you through my journey of changing and developing the leadership styles required to command Gurkha soldiers on operations.
My actions and decisions (good and bad) will be analysed from a psychological standpoint to provide a personal and unique perspective on the challenges and requirements of leadership through adversity.
Home Grown Resilience
I will share elements of the next phase of my story being deployed overseas. During the course of this there were multiple and significant setbacks that should have stopped me from achieving what was needed.
I will outline how I was able to overcome life changing injuries repeatedly, the resilience strategies I employed, and how I was able to continue delivering upon the requirements of Queen and Country throughout.
Decision Making Under Pressure
We will explore the factors that impact and influence decision making under pressure. Taking real examples from Hostage Rescue and Military operations, the talk ranges from exploring heuristics to the efficacy of predetermined decision making models when performing to an elite standard.
The 'golden thread' focuses on the leadership and fellowship requirements present within team dynamics.
