Brian is an internationally active trainer, theatre director, and moderator who supports executives and teams with a unique blend of artistic creativity, analytical depth, and human approachability.
He lives in a restored windmill in the north of England - a place that reflects his work: rooted, full of character, and open to new perspectives.
His professional career began in theatre: as a professional actor and director, Brian worked on stages across England and developed a keen sense of expressiveness, presence, and human dynamics. He then worked as a freelance writer and associate producer for the BBC, producing several documentaries that brought societal issues to light with narrative clarity.
With his MBA from the London Business School, Brian bridged the gap between artistic practice and modern leadership development. He became a faculty member at the prestigious Ashridge Hult Business School and also taught at leading international institutions such as IMD, NYU, and Harvard. This combination of theory, practice, and global experience makes him a sought-after trainer worldwide. In his training sessions, Brian effortlessly transitions between playful ease and profound seriousness. He creates learning environments that are both inspiring and demanding - spaces where people can try out new ways of thinking, develop authentic presence, and make bold decisions. Participants appreciate his clarity, humor, and ability to make complex topics understandable and tangible.
