I save businesses FORTUNES reducing burnout, supercharging wellbeing & calming minds | Corporate Training | 1:1 Executive Training | Keynote Speaker | stevewaremindfulness.com

I get it, you’re busy! So I’ll keep this short.  I can help you in two ways:

1️⃣ If you’re a company seeking happier, healthier, higher performing teams I have the perfect, science-backed solution for you.

I transformed the lives of thousands of my colleagues when I introduced the first (and only) HR-approved mindfulness programme to IBM, and within months I had a waitlist of 500+ people globally.  Graduates of my 8-week course "Success Starts Within: A Mindfulness Journey to Health and Performance" reported :
 
✅  Lower stress levels
✅  Feeling happier and more productive
✅  Sleeping better
✅  Making the correct decisions, even in high stakes situations
✅  Feeling less overwhelmed…
✅  …and even returning to work early from long-term sick leave
 
The course, from the University of Oxford, was described by senior leaders as "undoubtedly the most transformative programme we've ever done at IBM."

Since leaving the company in 2020, I’ve taken this incredible course to the world’s biggest brands, but have also taught my life-changing courses to small & medium businesses across a wide variety of sectors. 

Size really doesn't matter!
 
2️⃣ Each year I work with a select few people 1:1.   My “Resilient Leadership : Executive Strategies for Stress Reduction” training is a six month, bespoke, made-for-you programme that will teach you the secrets to a calmer, quieter mind, and a more fulfilling, purposeful life.

Designed with the most senior leaders in mind, I know you don’t have time to

📱 Download the apps and actually use them, or

So I do all of that for you.  It’s white-glove, VIP service which will uncover the best version of you.  I’ve worked with the most successful entrepreneurs in the UK, please DM me if you are interested in working privately with me.

When I’m not teaching people to find more peace in this frantic world, you'll find me out exploring the countryside with the world’s craziest cocker spaniel, or eating my bodyweight in peri-peri chicken. 

Oh, and if you prefer email, you’ll find me at steve@stevewaremindfulness.com.

I got to know everyone and became a dedicated supporter of their work. I chaired the 2004 Dyslexia Awards Dinner at the Dorchester, raising over £130,000.  I've worked with young dyslexics in prison and helped by giving workshops and running seminars in communication for DA teachers. I now sit on the developement board to help raise money and come up with good ideas! If anyone wouyld like to know more please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Co-founder of the 500 Club

The British Actors Theatre Company

I helped to found and run BATCO for its first 3yrs, we worked without directors and did everything together as a team, it was a very exhilerating time.  I also played some of the major shakesperian roles including Lady Macbeth! This experience helped me to see how you could bring many more personal  abilities and talents to the world of the theatre, not just the one of actor!  This in turn gave me very useful skills and human insights when I started my business, Personal PresentationLtd.

Co-founder

I founded Personal Presentation in 1989 to transform the way people communicate. 

My unique You Brand method is rooted in the psychology, discipline, and techniques of professional theatre.  The coaching is all about taking my experience, understanding, and technical ability as an actor and transferring these to 'ordinary' people - non actors - so that they can learn to play brilliantly the role of themselves, and be truly genuine and visible everywhere they go.  

► You Brand
With my team, I coach senior level private and corporate clients through the You Brand programme.  It brings self-awareness, focus, empathy and professionalism to their approach to personal communication.  There’s nothing at all ‘soft’ about these skills – but they’re absolutely invaluable!

You Brand communication is at the heart of congruence, cohesion, and constructive challenge within senior teams.  It'll give real depth to your leadership profile.  It will transform performance in business pitches, presentations, and interactions with colleagues and clients.  It will help you transform ‘difficult’ conversations into productive, assertive and collaborative interaction. 
It can be invaluable in career development, and succession planning and implementation.
It is the missing ingredient that can make a critical difference to organisational change initiatives.

“Julia Goodman helped me hone the public-facing skills of the head of our McDonald’s franchise in Finland; taking a shy accountant and turning him into a brilliant front man who could own the room in meetings with large numbers of Finnish franchisees.  His new-found confidence and energy were, I believe, largely responsible for the turnaround of the Finnish business.  When he projected self-assurance, the franchisees picked up on his positivity.  They stopped bringing up petty issues and worked together to provide a great customer experience.  Confidence is infectious.”
Guy Hands, Founder and Chairman of Terra Firma, in his book The Dealmaker (2021)

“You ‘remoulded’ me to be me, and made a huge and positive difference in my life. You stand out in my career as the person who made the biggest lasting difference. Thank you with all my heart.”
Des Crowley, Chairman AXA Ireland
