My story
“I have a lifelong obsession with movements – because movements change the world; movements leverage causes and businesses and movements transform lives and communities. But movements are catalysed and nurtured by movement leaders who focus on their ‘best lives’; modelling their character, skills and habits for their movements. These habits are caught by the movements they serve and the movement builds momentum through the viral spreading of these habits and ideas.

This lifelong passion around ‘habits and movements has driven me to kickstart 8 enterprises over 25 years and to invest thousands of study hours and close to 6 figures into finding out as much as possible about being a Movement Leader, living our Best Lives and acquiring the skills and tools to keep up with this ever-passionate mindset.”
“I make home in Exeter in the beautiful SW of England, with my wife and 4 children; son in a 9-member multi-racial family, I spent some of my childhood in Africa. I regularly retreat to the wild spaces of South West England to camp, walk, run, swim, surf, cycle and recharge.
I’m daily immersed in a book or browser and have completed an Ironman triathlon. A trained coach and experienced speaker, lecturer and trainer, I have an MA in Leadership Development and as part of my ongoing development am a distance learning M.Phil/PhD student . My research is into viral movements to change the world; mixed in with a background in developing businesses, charities, faith communities and social enterprises.”

Online Funnels are the most influential digital tool ever to hit our planet and I build and optimise funnels using the most intuitive funnel-building platform out there, HubSpot, with a bit of help from WordPress and Clickfunnels; , a great team and the UK’s fastest broadband connection. We give away the same funnels that have kickstarted people movements and made profitable & sustainable incomes for their owners. My goal is to get online tools and funnels into the hands of movement leaders, entrepreneurs and small businesses across the UK and to gather folks for FunnelDays and BotDays where we all get to play with funnels and bots by designing our perfect funnel. As part of your funnel we can add extremely powerful tools and cool stuff like Chatbots, Membership Sites, Online Schools, Webinars, Auto-Webinars, Landing Pages, Payment Pages, Social Media and other Integrations, Business Process Automation, Personalised Website Experiences, Autoresponders, Online Courses, Marketing Campaigns and Workflow Automations.
I work with leaders of all descriptions; entrepreneurs, retail managers, community workers and organisers, small and medium-sized business owners, faith community leaders, youth workers, sales and marketing managers, charity executives, undergraduates, youth workers, post-graduates or street homeless folks.
I particularly seek to hang out with and help out those between 18 and 40 – the generation sometimes called Millenials or Generation Y. It must be said, they’ve got a pretty shitty deal from the older generations – housing crisis, crappy and unstable global political environment , a Brexit they didn’t vote for and some climate change to all look forward to.
But in other ways, this generation have potentially the tools, the mindset and the skillsets to literally change the world and offer new hope and purpose to the planet.
Towards this aim, my Sessions and Talks include…
- Starting & Nurturing a Movement
- Kickstarting a Start-Up
- The Mindset, Toolset & Skillset
- BotDay – create your own ChatBot in one day
- Ripping Dualism out of your Life

What’s the number one skill-set for ‘successful’ people (in the best and most rich sense of the word) and becoming more important in this ever-changing world?
Great Conversation will always help bring ‘success’ to relationships, families, start-ups, businesses, parenting, marriages, ideas, projects, ‘movements’; more than any other skill-set and yet rarely is it taught, caught or nurtured.
The ‘Great Conversationalist’ is an online space where we focus on growing this most important of skills – resources, videos, articles, podcasts, small groups, coaching, etc… etc…

“Steve is clearly highly talented and very committed. He is a natural networker or “connector” (to use Malcolm Gladwell’s term). He has strong facilitative and problem solving skills, so is able to intervene sensitively in the organisations he has connected with in a range of helpful ways. He has excellent listening and empathetic skills, and a heart for the vulnerable.”

His calm presence is greatly appreciated.”
