About Rocket

a bit about me…

I have a 30 year background in high-performance sales and leadership training. Having led consultancy teams for Abbey National and Lloyds Bank, where I successfully developed radical strategies to create performance improvement. In 2000, I branched out with my own practice spotting an opportunity to provide authentic performance development programmes. Today, the business has grown as part of the Rocket Performance Group and now you can access my skills directly via Rocket Coaching.

My extensive sales leadership and coaching skills experience covers all levels in an organisation. This means I am as comfortable working with C Level executives as I am with first line Managers.

I’m considered a thought leader in the development of Performance Coaching programmes. This means I am regularly invited to speak at conferences guiding others through key skills in coaching and change leadership.

I have worked with a host of major brands in a multitudes of markets, including Banking, Finance & Insurance , Pharma, Hospitality, SAAS, Fin Tech, Mobile Communications, Data Infrastructure, Motor, Big Data and Franchising.

This depth of work, has meant I am requested across the globe. Along with the UK, I have current coaching engagements in Asia, North American and Europe.

As a keen sportsman, I have played senior level Rugby but more recently I have developed UK rowing at a regional and national level. I have served on British Rowing Committees and continue to work within the sport. I still gain great satisfaction running coaching programmes in the UK and the US.

Sporting goals are continuing to feature highly in my life. You can regularly find me covered in mud, sweat, or both on bicycles and on foot completing long distance challenges!
