On life, music, diving & the universe
Speaking
As you can probably gather from this blasted website I have done a lot of 'stuff' over the years. As a result I am constantly being asked to talk at academic institutions, functions, conferences and events. The articles below show some examples.
My fees vary with the type of event. If you would like to find out cost and availability, just fill out the contact form. Assuming I am above the water, I will come straight back to you - no agents, no bullshit.
on life, the universe and everything
The years have not been kind to my body: my hair is falling out, waistline expanding and I have tennis elbow (and thats without playing a single game). What I have lost in the hair department however, I have gained in experiences. There are a number of classic situations that even now when I tell them, make me laugh so much I almost pee...
on business
Angela and I have created, run and sold-on various businesses since 1989. In this time we have had the full gamut of business experience from earning (and spending) fortunes, to the edge of bankruptcy. All this experience prompted me to create a talk: 'A dozen tips for business success'. It's funny, to the point and has real value for existing and budding entrepreneurs...
on diving
Over the last 15 years I have been travelling the globe diving on interesting 'stuff' under water. During my travels I have accumulated loads of very funny anecdotes about the places I have dived and people I have met. So I have put together a series of talks on my diving exploits, some technical for the diving community and some very light-hearted, giving the audience a rich experience of the thrills and spills of the underwater world...
on masterplanning
I have been talking at Universities and Embassies throughout Europe trying to convince anyone who will listen that masterplanning doesn’t work. OK, that's a shocker, but what I am trying to do is make us all think about the people rather than just the buildings and the space between them. Its called 'Beyond Masterplanning'.
Thank you for giving the talk as part of the 'Inspiring Enterprise for All' series. The feedback has been really positive; your talk made a great start to the programme.
