As a keynote speaker, I must always rely on authenticity and firsthand accounts.

As a technical Mountaineer by trade I’ve climbed some of the biggest mountains on this planet over the last 25 years. I’ve also served on the front line with the British military as a combat medic, and also from an infantry perspective and also leading, organizing, participating in remote wilderness expeditions from the Arctic jungle mountain and desert. These are my tool kits to rely on when speaking to people about how to thrive over survive.

First hand harrowing counts of scenarios, where people have felt they’ve had nothing left and including me as a leader, having nothing left, but then dragging out and performing that piece, which helps to save lives and also increase quality of life. But topics that I cover, some of them such as compassion, contentment, and also ensuring that people understand what their performance capability is about as well.

If you have someone that has served on the front line, led people. If you have got somebody who has led people on some of the biggest mountain expeditions this planet has to offer, and if you’ve listened to somebody who’s organized and led expeditions over 25 years in remote locations and austere environments, then you don’t need me to speak at your next gig. But if that is of interest to you, then maybe it’s good for us to have a call.
