Keynote Speaker
Connection, Collaboration, Conflict Resolution: Turning Relationships into Results
Nick Saunders has a 25 year track record as an international keynote speaker and trainer. His publication, You Can Choose Your Friends, is an Amazon No 1 best-seller. He is known as The Family Man because he demonstrates that workplaces are like families; you can choose your friends but work colleagues and families you’re stuck with. However, you can still get on with them and Nick shows you how… by turning relationships into results. He delivers his powerful message in a highly entertaining style that is unusual, unstuffy and unpretentious.
