Considering he is something of a nerdy introvert, Rowan sure does love to talk! His messages of clarity, focus, and practical solutions resonate with audiences across the board. Those audiences have included job-seekers at all levels, plus educators, accountants, marketers, engineers, bankers, media owners, rocket scientists and (drumroll) brain surgeons.
He brings good humor and creative, actionable solutions, tailored to your audience’s needs. With a professional track record in the multinational sector and years of consulting and training experience, Rowan has the credibility and insight to make a meaningful contribution to your event.
With Rowan, you’ll never get a potted, by-the-numbers, speech. He addresses each issue faced by each audience with clarity, empathy, and insight.
