Nigel is the only motivational speaker in Europe to have been awarded Speaker of the Year from both The Academy for Chief Executives and Vistage (formerly known as The Executive Committee). He is a respected author and television presenter as well as a prolific speaker. He speaks with authority: his own life having veered perilously away from comfortable norms at times. He has learned - the hard way - that positive results can come from negative experiences, and that we often learn best from situations that are unfamiliar and even uncomfortable.
As one of the youngest CEO's of a financial services company in the City of London, Nigel knows business as well as he knows life and more importantly he knows what it takes to lead a successful business!
Unlike other motivational speakers or consultants, he has the ability to translate - with electrifying effect - that hands on experience into a coherent, compelling and exciting philosophy, which has made him one of Europe's leading key note speakers and a powerful professional one-to-one coach to some of the world's leading business executives.
Today he conducts more than 150 motivational seminars and corporate speaking engagements a year for an enormous variety of companies and organisations in Britain and overseas. When he isn't travelling Nigel lives with his wife and two children in Hertfordshire.
Nigel has just completed filming an important new documentary for C4, which will hit UK television audiences in the autumn of 2006. He continues to appear on prime time chat shows, such as Richard & Judy, and makes many radio appearances all around the world.
His latest book The IMPACT Code is available through all good bookshops and through his website.
"Nigel is an inspirational speaker and writer…what you need to find out is what he has to offer- then take advantage of it." Findlay Caldwell, MD of RAC
