| Richard leads a truly diverse life and his talk reflects this. Entitled the ‘Advantage of Diversity’ it is an eclectic mix of anecdotes relating to his life so far.
He hasn’t climbed Everest or dived to the bottom of the Ocean but he has faced some real life challenges wherever he has worked and done some bizarre things.
For example: driven 15,000 miles through South America in a Jeep, been trapped in a Frigate by jellyfish, fought a fire in the middle of the Atlantic, worked for the Queen, chased smugglers in Hong Kong and off Colombia, driven through minefields, played rugby with a Prince, designed water systems for Nepalese villagers, fallen overboard in the Atlantic, driven across the Sahara in a £200 van, stood next to an exploding volcano (not by choice), the list goes on……
Richard trained as an engineer but later worked as an Equerry to the Royal Family receiving the Royal Victorian Order at only 39.
Nowadays when he is not leading teams of young people on personal development expeditions overseas he is delivering performance related interventions focusing on leadership and teamwork to large companies.
The really important thing to Richard however is people, their values, their diversity and seeing them develop and work as a successful team.
