Stop waiting, start behaving

“Emotive, inspiring and a great way to kick off a conference by getting everyone around the room interacting and engaged.”

The Confidence Formula

They ditched the deck, pitched their line in 10 minutes, and won the £450 million contract.

That’s not luck. That’s confidence – the kind you can build.

Confidence isn’t magic. It’s not even a personality trait.

It’s a behaviour – and behaviours can be learned, built and sharpened.

In this high-energy, interactive session, I’ll show you how to:

  • Run the repeatable formula for belief under the highest pressure – even on your worst day
  • Use 3 feedback loops to turn hesitation into decisive action
  • Apply a juggling metaphor you’ll actually remember, long after the applause.

Without confidence, the best ideas never leave your head – and someone else wins the deal that you should have landed.

You'll learn how to:

  • Structure a story that sells without the whiff of a sales pitch
  • Hook an audience in the first 20 seconds so they can’t look away
  • Land your message in 30 seconds or 30 minutes – and make it a belter every time
  • Make your stories impossible to ignore – and even harder to forget.

This week I will achieve a decade-long ambition by working in London’s most instantly recognisable tower, The Gherkin. At 500,000 sq ft, it’s impressive to say the least. Michael got a gig there ten years ago and I concede envy, it seemed such a waste for a petrol-head to be chosen over an architect. The event combines two passions, rainmaking and architecture, which is a bullseye in terms of self-actualisation. If I asked you to reflect upon what single trait might have led me here many would say passion, however, passion is never enough.
