Roydon Gibbs

Conference speaker (work, leadership, resilience and more)

Roydon is our senior training specialist in all things work related. He is an insightful and engaging man with a passion for helping people get more from their working life experiences. He can revive and invigorate your people with a new passion for their everyday activities by helping them think and act differently.

Drawing on more than 25 years of helping people learn useful stuff for work, Roydon’s own experiences of burnout, and the best of what current research tells us, Roydon offers a practical and encouraging alternative to simply resigning ourselves to being stressed, bored or unfulfilled at work.

With real stories about real people in the real world, Roydon gives his audiences immediately usable and useful ideas that instil genuine confidence, perseverance, inspiration and hope.

Roydon will design the presentation specifically for your audience. Contact Roydon and organise a time to talk. He would love to hear about what’s happening in the world of your work and how he can work with you as a speaker at your event.
