“I would recommend Guy to any school as a speaker on performance, motivation and skills for success in life. He presented to the Lower Sixth at Harrow brilliantly, holding their attention effortlessly for more than an hour. In the days and weeks after his visit, the boys talked frequently and enthusiastically about his presentation, and it was clear that they had learned some valuable lessons for their last two years at school and for their lives beyond”.
Director of Studies, Harrow School, London
“Guy delivered the Key Note Speech at our annual School Speech Day. His delivery, style and ability to connect with the wide audience, in particular the school leavers, was very impressive. I cannot recommend Guy highly enough if you are looking for an inspirational speaker who has the ability to engage genuinely with all comers at a top-level school event.”
