Team Development
I want to say a huge thank you to David - who was incredible. Truly engaging, he managed our very enthusiastic team (keeping us to time) and was really knowledgeable about the topic. So a massive thanks to him.
Technical skill gets teams hired. It's rarely what holds them back.
What limits most teams is harder to see — poor communication, eroded trust, resistance to change, leaders who haven't yet learned to lead themselves. These things don't fix themselves, and they’re easy to miss in a performance review. But they shape everything: how decisions get made, how conflict is handled, how people feel on a Monday morning, whether this team is driving success or not.
My workshops address precisely these issues. Drawing on business psychology, psychotherapy, philosophy and over two decades of working with teams within organisations including Meta, Viacom, Atlassian, Google, Apple, Microsoft, Chanel and The Wall Street Journal, I design and deliver programmes that create lasting change — not just a day out of the office.
HOW IT WORKS
Workshops are available as half-day or full-day sessions, and can be delivered in person or remotely. They work equally well as standalone training or as part of a structured programme rolled out over weeks or months — the right shape depends on your organisation, your team, and what you're trying to achieve.
Every engagement begins with a conversation to understand your context. I don't deliver off-the-shelf training. Everything is adapted to the people in the room.
MY WORKSHOPS
change
Change is inevitable. Being prepared for it isn't. This workshop builds the resilience and frameworks teams need to lead change, not just survive it.
Communication
Beyond presentation skills and active listening — this workshop explores what really gets in the way of good communication, and how to have the conversations that matter.
Leadership
Leadership starts on the inside. This workshop examines the emotional and psychological qualities that distinguish truly effective leaders from merely capable ones.
Calm
High performance and chronic pressure are not the same thing. This workshop gives teams the tools to work with greater focus, clarity and steadiness.
Confidence
Confidence is a skill, not a personality trait — and it can be developed. This workshop explores what gets in the way and how to move past it.
INNOVATION
Many businesses have a system that quietly stifles new ideas before anyone notices. This workshop enables you to diagnose and dismantle the organisational and psychological conditions that stop innovation in its tracks.
The best way to get a sense of how I work is to watch me work. This is a full session on building high-performance teams, recorded live with a global audience.
David's bespoke version of his Change Workshop enabled my company to plan for a vision-driven, better-structured and far more human approach to our current work practice and future goals. He brought extraordinary customized skills, values and empathy to his unique, success-focused process.
David really made it feel like a welcoming and safe space, which then resulted in high interaction from everyone that attended. David was an excellent speaker and workshop host and we look forward to working with David again.
Thank you for all of your wisdom, guidance and support with this programme, David. As the data shows, it's been incredibly well received by the cohort.
