My “Speak With Confidence” programme is aimed at individuals or small groups of people and it does just what the title suggests. The programme is designed around you and covers the aspects that are most important to you. My Speak with Confidence programme will enable you to:

In the space of a day, you’ll learn the art of public speaking and will leave the programme as a confident, capable and effective public speaker. For more information see the Speak with Confidence Course page on this site.
Management and Business Courses
As a Chief Superintendent in Greater Manchester Police, I led a command unit of 650 people in one of the most challenging policing environments in the country. I have now captured the key elements of Leadership and Motivation which delivered such outstanding success for me. My leadership and management courses are tailored to your needs and offer:
- Leadership and Motivation - Inspiring your team to success
- Organisational Change - Implement change across your organisation
These short practical courses help you and your organisation to instil these critical factors into your working environment; to inspire success; to achieve personal and organisational goals and to build effective teams. I share with my audiences the secrets of how I went about successfully leading change. See the Business Courses section of this site for more information.
Public Speaking Engagements
My 32-year career in Greater Manchester Police followed by a transition to become a successful and in-demand toastmaster and master of ceremonies have provided me with a wealth of material to entertain and enthral my audiences. I now offer my public speaking services to many groups and a range of events. I talk about my police career recounting fascinating, humorous and sometimes tragic stories about life as a police officer in a tough inner city environment. I tell the secrets of my success and how I achieved that success on the streets of Manchester and Salford. The talk about my toastmaster career is hilarious. I enlighten my audiences, telling them about the origins of the toastmaster and wedding traditions. I include plenty of real-life stories which will have you open-mouthed with amazement and rolling about with laughter. Go to my Public Speaking Services page to see how my skills and my fascinating experience can enhance any function or event, at a price which will not blow your budget!

I love coaching people in public speaking and my 'Speak With Confidence' programme is proving to be a big hit. I also love working at weddings and making a special day even more memorable.

With wide experience as a senior officer with Greater Manchester Police, Salford City Council and Salford Primary Care Trust, I am regularly asked to speak to business leaders on the elements of Leadership and Leading Change. I was recently asked by Arrimar Ltd to speak to eight directors who were undertaking their Director's Development Programme. My topic was 'Leading Change.'

This is the third time that I have been Master of Ceremonies at the 'Ladies Who Lunch' event at this beautiful Lancashire hotel. It takes place on a quarterly basis when about 150 ladies from across the county pay £45 a head to attend this prestigious charity lunch. With immaculate timing, the guest speaker on this occasion was Edwina Currie, 48 hours after she had been unveiled as one of this year's participants in BBC TV's 'Strictly Come Dancing.'

On Saturday 14th May 2011 I was the MC at the President's Annual Dinner at the Castle Green Hotel, Kendal. That is not President Obama, it is the President of the Blinds and Shutters Association! It was a great night - I am told the MC was great!

On Friday 1st April 2011 I was the MC at The Perfectly Pink Ball at Stonyhurst College, Lancashire, in aid of Breast Cancer Research. It was hard work but we raised lots of money for this wonderful charity. I ran the auction and one item (a holiday for 10 in Val dIsere) fetched £16,000. Fantastic!
