Graham Davies: bitingly funny, seriously informative.
Whether as a presentation coach, keynoter, facilitator or after dinner speaker, Graham Davies has a unique ability to juggle the need for both a serious message and entertainment.
Graham is a recovering barrister and former President of the Cambridge Union, who is now one of the UK’s leading experts on personal presentation. As the founding partner in the consultancy Straight Talking (www.straighttalking.co.uk), he coaches executives and politicians on how to get their message across in a brutally effective way, without addiction to PowerPoint Prozac.
Graham’s clients include Ford, IBM, Tesco, Unilever, Old Mutual, UBS and Deutsche Bank, as well as 7 members of the Shadow Front Bench:
“You have made a huge difference to my personal impact.”
- Michael Gove MP
His keynote captures the essence of techniques that he has successfully introduced to dozens of blue chip companies:
“You provided the absolutely perfect balance of business focus and humour. The feedback I have received from many delegates is that you were the highlight of the day.”
- Ian Jones, Managing Director, Commercial Vehicles, Mercedes-Benz
Graham’s humour is always sharply topical, while his ability to connect with multi-national audiences is remarkable. There is no other speaker in Europe who can match his ability to mix sharp comedy with insightful content that is tailored for the business needs of the audience:
“Graham was tasked with a tough challenge: to deliver an entertaining speech with a serious message, to a multi-cultural audience from across all parts of Europe. He achieved this very successfully…… His delivery was outstanding, and the feedback excellent.”
- Andrew Tait, Head of Services Europe,
ABN AMRO
TV celebrities may look good on paper, but no one has a better track record as a live event specialist than Graham Davies. If in doubt, read his testimonials and press cuttings and then watch the video footage on www.grahamdavies.co.uk.
On the personal side, Graham was born on the Isle of Man and now lives in London’s Kensington, while remaining aggressively single. When not speaking, he relaxes by working out, reading science fiction, listening to heavy metal and providing David Cameron with a sense of humour.
