What’s different?

Steve’s specialises in personal development and wellbeing – and his eclectic and engaging presentations are peppered with poetry, wisdom and insights from psychology, science, organisational development and the arts.

Steve is not a motivational expert with a seven-point programme, nor a new-age guru offering enlightenment – rather his work is grounded in both real life and profound psychological insight.

Above all, however, he invites each person in the audience to reflect, imagine and engage with their own intuition, intelligence and soul.

Steve’s approach is ideal for a keynote at a conference or gathering, a workplace CPD seminar, a personal development workshop or informal evening event. For many years, he has run short and long courses for large organisations – as well as working with individuals and small groups as a psychotherapist.

Talks and themes

All Steve’s talks and workshop are suitable for CPD events, conferences and networking organisations. They can all be adapted to suit your particular event requirements. Similar titles and themes are also available.

The secrets of happiness
The title of Steve’s ‘signature talk’ is self-explanatory – this wide-ranging presentation asks what we mean by happiness, and questions some of our assumptions about how we get there. Starts with Alice in Wonderland and takes in ‘positive psychology’, Greek mythology, Jackson Pollock, sanity and madness along the way!

The poet inside
Poetry takes us right into our inner-life – and our values, culture, ideas and imagination. In this talk, Steve shows how poetry goes to the heart of the matter quickly and directly. Not surprisingly Steve uses poetry – his own and that of others – to inspire, move and entertain.

The wellbeing puzzle
How can you get the best for your health and wellbeing at work? This presentation answers that question – and can be delivered to managers or groups of employees. It takes a comprehensive, challenging and practical approach to workplace wellbeing and why it matters.

The creative self
Creativity is a cornerstone of human happiness. This talk reflects on how we can all tap into our creative self and begin to experience ‘flow’! The workshop version of this presentation invites people to begin be creative – in whatever way suits them!
