  Since 2001, Mark has delivered leadership and team development programmes both nationally and internationally for a diverse range of clients.  He is also a highly accomplished speaker, executive coach, meeting facilitator and trainer.

Mark has always had a passion for people and worked on the shop floor of his family’s shoe manufacturing company as opposed to being up in the office in the school holidays.  His early working life was spent running his own Car Valet business at 17 before he sold it to his competitor to attend Leicester University at 21 to gain an Honours degree in Business Administration with Human Resource Management.  He first put it to use as an Account Executive for a Media Agency in London.

City life was not his destiny and two years later he left to concentrate on his other passion – sailing.  4 years later Mark went on to skipper ‘BP Explorer’ (a yacht sponsored by energy giant BP) in the BT Global Challenge 2000/2001, achieving a podium position in this toughest of round the world yacht races.

On his return Mark set about combining all the hard earned leadership and teamwork lessons into a highly inspirational multi media presentation.  Such was the success of this keynote speech (over 300 appearances across 15 countries), that an online version was developed for BP by Mark to allow a greater audience to share in the learning.  This won a Gold award at the Sony Interactive Media Awards in 2003.

Mark has also been pivotal to the design and delivery of many ‘Masterclass’ seminars centred around what it takes to create and sustain high performance, based on the learning from his sporting exploits but intertwined with established theories and industry standard tools and techniques to bring them alive.

As a facilitator one of his greatest skills is being able to bring clarity and energy to any given situation and he is comfortable dealing with any level of an organisation from front line to board level.  Many organisations have benefited, including BP, BAE, BT & Burlington Resources to name just the B’s!
