Bio
Paul L.
I have worked on several work related issues with Michael over the last year. Michael has proved himself to be a dedicated and inspiring leisure professional, who is building a successful career. He is innovative and able to translate a client's objectives into reality while satisfying his own organisation's performance requirements. I would recommend him to any employer or commissioner.
Trevor Barton MBE
Michael has been a senior figure in the Wigan Leisure and Culture Trust. As a member of the voluntary sector that has worked extensively with the Trust over the years, I have seen Michael at close hand, particularly in relation to a new venture at Tyldesley Swimming Pool. Michael imbues trust in people because of his good communication skills. He is extremely pleasant to deal with but does actually get things done. Wigan's loss is certainly Bournemouth's gain.
