Stephen has enthralled and entertained audiences worldwide with his marvellous stories of how real organisations sometimes get their projects wonderfully right - but more usually hideously wrong!
These stories of “projects from hell” range from the tragedy of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster through to the wonderful story of how Stephen accidentally found himself building the world’s largest clipper ship for Sir Richard Branson and Sir Chay Blyth.
The key to Stephen’s captivating style is his ability to show how the lessons learned from these riveting stories can be put into everyday practical use within organisations. Not only is he a successful Masters qualified Project Manager in his own right but he also used to speaking to some of the most demanding audiences – he is a lecturer in Project Management at Cranfield - one of Europe’s top business schools. Some of the key lessons that Stephen punches home in his unique high-energy style are:
- • The role of leaders in organisations and on projects
- • Managing risk & uncertainty
- • The difficulties of effective communication.
- • The dangers of crisis management
Stephen’s Project Management experience spans the whole spectrum from building North Sea oil rigs, implementing organisational change right through to managing financial product launches. His public speaking career started by accident when he was asked by a Client if he would tell one of his “stories” at their annual conferences – word spread and he has been in great demand ever since!
