A message your people will act on

A good talk does more than fill a slot in the agenda. It gives the room a shared message and a reason to act on it. Mark has spent more than 20 years in front of corporate audiences, from small leadership teams to conferences of 1,000 people, and he knows how to get a room listening, laughing and thinking.

Every talk starts with a short call about your event: the theme, the audience, what has been happening in the business and what you want people to feel and do afterwards. Mark then shapes the talk around that.

Talk themes

Starting points. Each one is tailored to your event and your people.

  • Stronger together

    Why the best results come from teams, not individual stars, and what each person can do to make the people around them better.

  • Leading through change

    Restructures, mergers and new strategies are hard on people. A talk about staying positive, adaptable and connected when things are uncertain.

  • Your part in the bigger picture

    How every role connects to the company's goals, and why ownership and pride in your own part matter to everyone else.

  • Finishing the year strong

    A warm, upbeat talk for year-end functions that celebrates what the team achieved and sets the tone for the year ahead.

Talk plus programme

Mark can open your day with a talk and then lead your team straight into one of our programmes, so the message is put into practice the same day. The debrief links back to the talk, and it is all captured in the written summary afterwards. The Conference Programme is built this way.

Good for

Conference openers and closers, sales kick-offs, strategy days, year-end functions and leadership offsites.

Start with a 15‑minute planning call
