National Leadership Academy

Speaking & media

Bring the research into the room

Keynotes, workshops, school sessions and media — on why leaders fail, and what protects them.

Talk topics

What he speaks about

Every topic below is a programme the academy teaches, so the talk is the short form of something with a full curriculum behind it — not a keynote assembled for the occasion.

Why leaders fail

The behaviours that quietly damage organisations, and the governance that catches them early.

The masterclass

Self-awareness as a leadership tool

What a measured DISC baseline changes about how a leader actually behaves.

Psychometrics

Building the leadership pipeline

Why promoting your best performer rarely produces your best manager — and what to do instead.

The Institutes

Raising young leaders

For schools and parent audiences: how leadership is learned between ages four and twelve.
