Bio
Gerry Hill 🚀
Tom has a compelling and important story which can only benefit the culture and resilience of modern workplaces. His narrative can help CEOs drive honest, empowered work for their staff and mitigate the risk of bullying in high-performance environments. Tom is a great person and a funny (haha, not weird) bloke who will help captivate your staff with humour whilst delivering an important message. I could not suggest working with Tom highly enough.

Jan 2022 - Jul 2023
Following a career in professional rugby, I transitioned to high-performance and change management consultancy. I pride myself on building no-nonsense relationships that keep strategy at the core of the conversation. I run our leading edge solutions and will work tirelessly to create a programme of events and interactions to make your culture thrive. I'm passionate about focussing on the few priorities that impact business most significantly. I often deliver keynote speeches to the financial services industry, that focus on culture and conduct. My principle belief is that with a highly-structured decision making system in place, the opportunity to excel is significantly increased. Show less
