With the pressures people are facing in the workplace both internally and externally, and for those different generations trying to navigate a rapidly changing world, Andrew firmly believes that this style of leadership is critical if organisations are going to achieve success. Andrew will discuss how attitudes, such as being non-judgemental and showing kindness, can unlock modern leadership and drive performance.
- Collaboration is Key: Andrew has led complex, multi-disciplinary and multi-organisational teams. He successfully created and implemented a ‘One-Team’ culture in a £5bn national programme which involved ten delivery organisations.

Here Andrew talks about his own personal journey of working under pressure, and gives the audience advanced tools to enable them to thrive under pressure, life hacks to help them navigate the challenges of leadership and techniques to help teams perform.
- Psychological Safety – Why it Matters to You & Your Team: When employees feel comfortable asking for help, sharing suggestions informally or challenging the status-quo without fear, organisations are more likely to innovate quickly, unlock the benefits of diversity and adapt well to change. In this engaging keynote, Andrew uses powerful evidence-based examples to give leaders reasons to want this transformative team mindset and how they can reduce risk and build opportunities. This talk also highlights key indicators that show whether the workplace is psychologically safe or not and shares practical tips on how to achieve psychological safety.
