Background
Geoff trained in management before getting involved in television and conference production in the 1980s through what was known as British television’s toughest quiz, The Krypton Factor, first as a contestant and then as a consultant making up many of the show’s more difficult mental and lateral thinking challenges.
At that time he started his own production company with the show’s host, Gordon Burns, which has since produced over 200 hours of broadcast TV for ITV, BBC and satellite channels as well as countless conferences and videos for its corporate clients.
Experience
Geoff has been the main host, interviewer and facilitator at conferences and symposia around the world for well over 20 years, working in the UK and across Europe, as well as Africa, Australia and the USA. This considerable experience has helped him develop his unique presentations skills training module “Telling a Convincing Story”
His business management background gives him real insights into the concerns and challenges facing those he trains and interviews, whilst his enormous experience of a multitude of different organisations, both national and global, allows him to deliver perceptive and enlightened presentation style suggestions and interview questions in an effortless manner.
Naturally a warm and thoughtful person, Geoff forms excellent relationships with everyone he comes into contact with throughout any business in which he’s working, which helps inform his easy and natural style when on stage at their events and whilst training key speakers, both individually and in small groups.
