As​ ​a​ ​professional​ ​speaker​ ​and​ ​thought​ ​leader​ ​on​ ​the​ ​global​ ​circuit,​ ​Pete​ ​draws​ ​on​ ​his experience​ ​of​ ​the​ ​high-performance​ ​environment​ ​of​ ​Premier​ ​League​ ​football​ ​to​ ​help businesses​ ​to​ ​create​ ​and​ ​sustain​ ​a​ ​culture​ ​of​ ​success.​ ​He​ ​proves​ ​that​ ​there​ ​are​ ​startling similarities​ ​between​ ​the​ ​pitch​ ​and​ ​the​ ​boardroom.

Pete’s​ ​track​ ​record​ ​includes​ ​more​ ​than​ ​13​ ​years​ ​in​ ​a​ ​senior​ ​role​ ​at​ ​Manchester​ ​City Football​ ​Club,​ ​where​ ​he​ ​was​ ​responsible​ ​for​ ​helping​ ​to​ ​develop​ ​an​ ​unrivaled​ ​talent pipeline​ ​that​ ​created​ ​39​ ​first​ ​team​ ​footballers​ ​and​ ​25​ ​full​ ​international​ ​players.

The team’s trophy cabinet was a testament to this success, with 13 European tournament wins, an U15 Championship World Cup, six Divisional Premier League Championships and the FA Youth Cup.

Peter has presented this experience of management practices and performance management from this competitive environment within several different organisations.

Pete​ ​is​ ​adamant​ ​that​ ​there​ ​are​ ​no​ ​shortcuts​ ​to​ ​sustained​ ​success.​ ​His​ ​powerful​ ​insights delivered​ ​in​ ​a​ ​‘say​ ​it​ ​as​ ​it​ ​is’​ ​manner​ ​captivate​ ​audiences​ ​and​ ​prove​ ​that​ ​‘tales​ ​from​ ​the touchline’​ ​translate​ ​to​ ​other​ ​arenas,​ ​with​ ​compelling​ ​results.​ ​He​ ​maintains​ ​that ‘excellence’​ ​is​ ​a​ ​nebulous​ ​destination​ ​and​ ​continuous​ ​improvement​ ​is​ ​the​ ​Holy​ ​Grail​ ​of sustained​ ​high​ ​performance.​ ​A​ ​man​ ​who​ ​speaks​ ​from​ ​the​ ​heart​ ​using​ ​real-life​ ​insights,​ ​Pete believes​ ​that​ ​culture​ ​must​ ​support​ ​strategy​ ​and​ ​leaders​ ​create​ ​leaders,​ ​not​ ​followers.
