Alan is a successful consultant, coach, writer and investor. He holds a number of coaching and professional qualifications but believes that the best qualification is experience.
Alan recently retired from a very successful career and moved to the countryside with his family. He has worked in Financial Services and Consultancy for most of his career since leaving university and has a vast array of experience from working in several of the very best tier-1 investment banks, both as a consultant and as a senior permanent employee.
Throughout his career Alan has proven and re-proven himself by taking on new challenges and succeeding in new and challenging environments. He has already helped a large number of senior executives in the city through coaching and consultancy and his current focus is to pass on some of this experience in writing to reach and benefit a wider audience.
With over 15 years of experience, Alan has coached and worked in ‘trusted advisor’ roles at the highest level in major corporate institutions, primarily at CXO level.
Aside from his corporate and coaching experience, Alan is also a relatively experienced investor having built a small portfolio of property and business interests. Alan is also a published author with books ranging from professional self-help books to travel writing and childrens books.
Alan lives life to the full and fits in as many of his passions as possible. His main passion is his family and spending time enjoying the beautiful English countryside where he lives with them. He also enjoys playing golf and if he can find the time other sports including tennis, badminton, squash, skiing and football. Alan is a strong believer in always learning and enjoying life, he continually practices his languages, reading in either French or German rather than his native English and is just starting to learn Spanish.
Unlike many coaches, Alan also has in-depth knowledge and experience from within the corporate world, having held senior roles at Deutsche Bank, UBS, Santander, HSBC, MAPartners and Detica and is expert in programme management (MSP qualified), project management (Prince2 practitioner & PMI-PMP qualified), client relationship management, sourcing strategies (BPR, 6-sigma) and strategy & architecture.
