Conferences
The outstanding results Ken delivers in training teams to think differently in order to develop beneficial cultural changes in the workplace, has led to him being asked to speak as both a Plenary and break away speaker at conferences around the country. From medical conferences looking to help improve public health through to finance and HR conferences looking to improve communication & motivation, Ken’s talks provide an interesting, light hearted but very practical presentations that add value to any conference programme.
By drawing on his own experience and anecdotal stories, as a speaker Ken is able to deliver talks that are not only entertaining but also introspective and useful for attendees in real life situations.
These talks are based around the subject of Positive Psychology and will benefit any type of conference and provide an often welcome break away from other conference talks that focus of specific industry content.
Please take a look at the “Workshops” page for an idea of the types of subject Ken can talk about.
