Motivation
I have an incredible life story of going from a childhood of extreme domestic abuse through being an operational fire-fighter for 11 years to developing one of the most powerful memories in history. Because of this I have written a book which became a #1 bestseller (going to the top of the charts in The Sunday Times bestseller list in March 2008, the equivalent of the New York Times bestseller list), spoken internationally in 16 countries and appeared in the media over 400 times worldwide to over 200 million people.
My story is one of overcoming extreme adversity and the lessons I learned in the process. How our past does not dictate our future; that perception does not match reality; how we all have the potential to be so much than we believe; that technique and the correct flexible strategy will see us achieve our total and optimum personal and professional performance.
It is a very powerful speech that has been heard by Government ministers, CEOs, payroll staff, fire-fighters, Olympic athletes, blind business people, in fact, delegates from every single type of public and private organisation.
I am an ideal speaker to open your conference and get people excited and motivated about what they are going to do for the rest of your event.

Memory Improvement
I have one of the most powerful memories in history. I am the undefeated US Memory Champion, a multiple memory record holder, have broken a Guinness memory record (for reciting Pi - 3.14159... - to 22,500 digits from memory) and am a current memory world record holder.
It is this ability, coupled with 12 years of experience sharing my knowledge with delegates from 16 different countries, that I bring to your event.
I will share with your delegates a toolbox of easy to learn techniques and strategies that will enable them to dramatically improve their memory.
The session is highly interactive. The delegates will do exercises that are measurable and quantifiable, proving that the techniques work, even before they have left the room.
