An amazing story, fraught with danger, trauma, leadership and people management.
A vital, energetic and positive boost to your organisation.
Fascinating technical competence after sailing almost 40,000 miles round the world.
Alex can tailor his presentation to help your organisation get across various messages, from leadership, to dealing with difficulty in extreme situations. Drawing on his experiences in the race.
"Many thanks for an excellent presentation enthusiastically delivered. Feedback has been excellent and many references made to it during the following mornings workshops"
Chris Borrill, Director, Military Customer Support, Thales Group
"Alex was an enthusiastic and
engaging speaker, bringing to life the trials and tribulations of the Global
Challenge. His talk was very interesting with some great stories and
anecdotes. Moreover, he made it relevant to our business need with the
theme of "challenge" cleverly interwoven into his talk. The group found him
very motivational and took away some useful learnings. A terrific speaker
who can be highly recommended."
Sarah Tett, Commercial
Analytics Team, GSK
"Alex has the most extraordinary leadership skills. He has an innate way of understanding what is required to motivate the team at any given moment. The difference is his blend of expertise, and his unending optimism and energy. Whenever I needed support or a hand, there he was helping out without taking over - the sign of true leadership. Alex has my enormous respect. I have lead teams and facilitated large groups and have never seen it done better."
Sharon Callaghan, Manager British Airways Executive Club
"When I met Alex I was impressed by his determination and relaxed attitude to the Global Challenge Yacht Race. His presentation style is equally impressive, a mix of adventure stories, hardship, success, setback and the one over riding message that you should never, ever, give up. Alex was an inspiration to our team, and whatever challenges we face there was motivation and techniques to help succeed for all of us."
John Mobly, Managing Director, Newnet plc
"I sailed over 7000 miles with Alex from Cape Town to Boston in 2005. Our Challenge boat was racing hard 24 hours a day and as a watch leader Alex showed a special combination of practical sailing skills, teaching ability and above all calmness under pressure when leading his team through tough conditions. I would recommend him to anyone who is seeking an exceptional person to help develop leadership and motivational skills as well of course his undoubted ability in a sailing boat."
Rob Packham QPM, Consultant. Previously Deputy Director General, National Crime Squad
"Possibly the most motivated and positive person I have met."
James Smith, Supply Chain Integration Project Manager, Unilever UK Foods
"What an excellent presentation. Alex was confident, interesting and as inspirational as the subject he was presenting. He captured the attention of the audience with his warm personality and held it throughout; a truly motivational speaker"
Sue Quinnan, Senior Intelligence Officer, HM Revenue and Customs
