As an engineer, Russell is not your average people-person. He blends an engineer’s desire for knowledge, an inquisitive need for evidence and a belief that things can be better with an inspirational, charismatic and thought-provoking style. He connects dots in an informative way to help organisations take tangible actions to unlock the potential and productivity of their most expensive asset, their people. Often acting as a catalyst, he captivates people, motivating them to think differently, providing the impetus to change and transform, enabling them to move quicker and further than they previously thought possible.
Russell draws on a diverse background having worked as an engineering project leader in 26 countries, as a Managing Director of a £120m turnover outsourcing business, and as a people strategy consultant. He has consulted with and supported leadership teams of companies of all sizes from SME to FTSE100. Russell’s drive is inspired by the belief that people are the true USP of any organisation and it is through unlocking their potential that every stakeholder can thrive and succeed.
