Leads 'Coaching & On-Job Training Skills', 'Designing

Ian has been designing and delivering programmes for major clients for the last eleven years.  The range of clients extends across the occupational spectrum – finance, engineering, local government, charities, hospitality.  His work is largely UK based but with significant levels in The Channel Islands.  As well as running courses, he also acted as the consultant for the management training video ‘Project Closure’ produced by the Executive Business Channel.

Ian started his career in teaching, moved into managing career development services for a public sector organisation and then into project management roles first with Renault and subsequently with a major f.m.c.g. company.

Ian believes that ‘sharp-end’ experience should underpin all management training and his fundamental principle is ‘Don't teach it, if you ain't done it yourself’!  This approach means that Ian’s down to earth style provides pragmatic solutions for managers attending his courses.  His programmes are practical and delivered with the energy and enthusiasm of someone who has a commitment to improving performance.
