A graduate in development economics and qualification as a secondary school teacher of Geography preceded a career in the Royal Marines where I won the Commando Medal in Officer Training and went on to lead teams in a variety of challenging operational environments. I went on to be a lead facilitator at the Royal Naval Leadership school coaching senior managers in all aspects of leadership.

A keen sportsman with a blue from Cambridge and a keen amateur in all endurance events including expeditions to many of the wild places of the world including the North Pole and latterly long distance cycling and multi-sports events as a belated attempt to save my knees.

I have 20 years of training design, consulting and delivery experience globally, working for some of the world’s largest and most successful organisations. From executive coaching to global development programmes.

I live in the Black Mountains of Wales with my wife and two girls.
