A FEW USEFUL LINKS
Inspiring Speaker
As you can see from this website I have written over the past four years on a lot of business related topics such as leading and developing businesses, managing change and buying and selling businesses. All from a practical hands on perspective as a result of running my own businesses and helping clients over the last few years to run theirs. My objective is all about sharing knowledge as best I can.
I have also had occasion to speak on these topics having spoken at Seminars with the Hertfordshire Chamber of Commerce (of which I am a Non Executive Director too) and other groups around the county. I am now looking to speak at other venues over the next few months on a range of topics including:
- Managing Change across the Business Life Cycle
- Realising business value – preparing a business for exit
- Surviving the Downturn and coming out of it stronger
- Leading teams and improving their communication
If you run a group that is looking for an “Inspiring Speaker” as Stephen Herman of Businesslink kindly described me then give me a call.
