OUT perform


Last night's presentation seemed to go pretty well. It was great to have such a warm reception and a fair few questions - usually a good sign!

My main story concentrated on the experience of the Ice Warrior expedition to Geomagnetic North Pole in 2006. However, with the last couple of years' experience of a fair number of courses and training in the UK and Norway under my belt there is more to tell and consider when thinking about the lessons the outdoors can offer in leadership and team working.

Linking the need to consider team selection, training, planning, supply chain issues and logistics as well as managing a team under stress gives a whole new dimension to simply 'telling the story'

I am always happy to talk to people about my experiences and to do so for free! Contact me via this site or via Grant Thornton International in London.
