Why Me?
Over three decades, I’ve juggled roles from being an executive in a leading US corporation, grappling with a $1.6bn sales target, to navigating the entrepreneurial journey of running my own businesses.
My life’s work is to take the essence of these experiences and channel them into executive coaching that empowers, inspires and achieves.
Here’s why partnering with me isn’t just a choice, it’s a transformative decision…
Unparalleled Experience
My leadership journey is backed by 30 years of corporate experience, with over 15 years in executive roles, steering a 450-strong sales organisation across 38 countries to achieve a staggering $1.6bn target. Beyond the corporate realm, I’ve nurtured and led my own businesses for 15 years, understanding firsthand the challenges and triumphs of entrepreneurship.
Diverse Coaching Credentials
As a Henley Business School Executive Coaching Qualified professional and a Member of the International Coaching Federation, my coaching philosophy is both robust and globally recognised. Add to that my certifications as an NLP Practitioner and a Mindvalley Qualified Life Coach, and you have a coaching experience grounded in expertise and broadened by diverse methodologies.
Proven Coaching Success
With 16 years dedicated to executive and leadership coaching, I’ve had the privilege of coaching over 300 executives and business leaders, amassing thousands of hours of coaching experience. This journey has not only honed my skills but has deeply ingrained in me the understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities in leadership.
A Holistic Approach
My coaching extends beyond conventional strategies and theories. Drawing lessons from extreme sports, military discipline, and personal
challenges, I offer a holistic approach to leadership development. It’s about pushing beyond your limits, breaking personal and professional boundaries, and achieving what once seemed impossible.
Community and Philanthropy
My commitment to societal upliftment through charity fundraising and mentoring mirrors my coaching ethos – leadership is not just about leading, it’s about lifting others.

Working with Neil to develop a tailored value selling training for automated feeding was an incredible experience that I would happily repeat!
We uncovered the true value of the GEA solution for the customers and transferred it into a sales training that is practical, insightful, and entertaining.
Neil itself is an extraordinary trainer that genuinely engaged with the participants from beginning to end. We performed the trainings in several countries, all in local languages . Now our sales organization can discover the customers individual needs and demonstrate how our products create value for them, making the selling process an enjoyable experience for our dear customers.
Thank you Neil!
Carolina Hennings
I would consider Neil both a mentor and a personal friend. He is one of the few people I would be equally comfortable to phone for trouble shooting a seven figure deal as to grab a beer with. I have been fortunate to work with some exceptionally knowledgeable and tenured sales trainers over the last 20 years and Neil stands out as a unique individual. The reason for that glowing feedback is that Neil has a genuine and infectious passion for driving change and personal development and an ability to coach and upskill people through enabling them to ask the right questions of themselves first and foremost. Jim Rohn said you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, Neil is certainly one of the guys that would lift that average up…
William Bishop
Neil’s a fantastic coach with a very personable style, endless drive and energy and a real knack for asking pertinent questions to unlock challenges and find a way forward. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working together and have made a lot of positive changes in my personal and professional life as a result.
Samuel Horrocks
I’ve benefited from Neil’s coaching and support enormously. He is incredibly knowledgeable, he has so many tools in his kit that offer practical ways to solve problems or assess mindset.
I am delighted to say I’ve implemented some changes as a result of his coaching. I am really seeing the benefit in my personal as well as professional life.
I would really recommend working with Neil to anyone.
