People really look forward to their annual review often to be disappointed that their manager hasn't taken it seriously, hasn't prepared, talked all the way through and left them feeling less motivated and loyal than they were before they went in.

As a culmination of previous Masterclasses you will leave this session being able to put together a 1-2-1 that will leave your team buzzing with enthusiasm for the year ahead, keen to take some of your responsibilities off your shoulders, and primed with the confidence to do all that you need them to do! How about going into Christmas knowing that your team will be on their A Game when they get back in and that you can support them to be the best they can be - look at you, a truly inspirational leader!

Speaker Biography
After graduating from university, Alan started his career in the charitable sector supporting disadvantaged and at-risk young people throughout Canada.

Working as Development Coordinator for Horizons for Youth, an innovative harm reduction shelter in Toronto, Alan was inspired by their resiliency and dedication to self-improvement motivating him to establish the best strategic partnerships with major companies and the community to ensure young lives continued to be inspired.

Upon relocating to the UK, he continued his work with young people to achieve their full potential at The Prince’s Trust, the UK’s leading youth charity, covering Yorkshire and the Humber.

Following his own life changing experience on a Quarterdeck programme, Alan was invited to become part of the Quarterdeck crew, continuing to promote the ideal that anyone can be an inspirational leader.
