The Business Forum Guest Speakers
Here is a little information about some of the guest speakers at The Business Forum.
Lesley Morrissey
Lesley Morrissey is an author, editor and expert in readability. Having had a colourful career running her writing skills alongside her professional expertise as a human resources manager and trainer, she’s learned a lot about people!
“Most people don’t understand that people buy people, not things or services, when you can tap into that you’re on the road to successful selling,” she says.
Lesley is passionate about the words you use to promote your business – and a whole lot more that creates the readability of every type of document from a formal report to a business card.
Paul Wearmouth
Paul Wearmouth is a speaker of true vision, his light hearted, informative and highly energetic style allows individuals and audiences alike to open up their minds and help liberate their untapped potential by breaking free of the bonds that stop them from getting to where they truly want to be. Having the ability to communicate with people on many different levels enables Paul to see the true potential that lies in everyone, yet for most is barely ever used.Paul’s vision is simple, yet hits home with so many people. Prior to speaking, Paul worked as a successful manager for many years with some big names such as Next and Signet in a multi million pound, direct sales and client relations environment. This enabled him to see what does and does not work and where the most valuable assets of any company or organisation truly lie and how to use them.
Today Paul speaks to companies and organisations that are serious about succeeding in an increasingly competitive world. His keynotes centre around what life and experience has taught him, that if you want to make your success a reality, you need to take control of it, and make only small changes to result in a big difference! In any keynote or speech Paul takes delegates on an electrifying journey of self-discovery to install belief of individual greatness and help them to bring their goals and dreams to life!
As well as speaking Paul has just become an author and released his first book that shows how to maximise your profits and success rate by using and enhancing the personal selling skills that we all have. Combining this with his amazing F.O.C.U.S. model, Paul has developed a winning combination to put individuals in direct control of their own success!
Neil Bakewell
Neil is a respected author and renowned expert on overcoming adversity and maximising life potential. Speaking with authority and passion on these subjects, Neil draws from his own personal experiences. A stutter at age 9 and the resultant bullying led to a long term addiction to food. Topping the scales at 43 stone, he finally admitted himself to hospital for a gastric bypass operation. Today, with over twenty stone lost, he draws on the experiences of his lost years and helps countless others maximise their own life potential.
Neil is equally familiar with the world of business, having started his own company at the age of 25. Three years later it was a multi million pound organisation employing over a hundred people; then his health issues took over. Neil is able to graphically illustrate to business leaders the fundamental importance of good health, not just to themselves but to their business. He asks them the question Fit to Lead or Fat and Failing?
Today Neil works as an inspirational speaker and workshop facilitator with associations and organisations both in the United Kingdom and overseas. His compelling message helps make a lasting difference to people from the very second they step out of the room. He also works extensively with young people delivering workshops on the impact of bullying.
Neil is an accomplished author. His book Find your voice has help people conquer their own public speaking fears – who better to advice them than the speaker who couldn’t speak!
