Neil has 14 years of L&D experience working in and with private sector businesses to deliver change through talent management and talent development initiatives.

With extensive experience in the manufacturing industry, Neil now runs his own business supporting clients through their talent development journeys, where his skill of identifying strategic needs linked to the business objectives are then turned into meaningful and pragmatic solutions.

Neil uses a down to earth approach to build trust with people at all levels and uses this style to encourage both teams and individuals to collaborate, take ownership of their learning and develop a growth mindset.

Having gone through his own learning journey including a mid-career change of direction from operational to talent management, Neil understands the value of creating a highly supportive environment whilst asserting the necessary challenge to push through comfort zones. He has used this balance in designing and delivering leadership programmes, team building and skills building workshops, individual coaching and also consulting on organisational talent strategy.

Neil's knowledge and experience around individual and team dynamics enables him to quickly spot habits and behaviours that are either conducive or hindering progress and uses coaching techniques, group discussions and timely feedback to build awareness and take appropriate action.

Neil is passionate about helping people to grow. He uses his skills to inspire people to take courageous steps and overcome their fears. He also recognises that one size doesn’t fit all and things change. Constantly evaluating progress and listening to feedback ensures that he is able to keep things relevant and continually add value.
