I strongly believe that there is a place for all of us in a workplace that will allow us to flourish. The right career for you will not be without challenges. The process of getting to that career will involve hard work and commitment.
When you find the work you love and which you can produce good results at – you will receive the rewards your talents deserve.

Outside of my career and training work my abiding passion is music I am a singer, organist and pianist and freelance broadcaster. Music has always been a bit part of my life – both performing and listening. Out of doors you may find me hill-walking or cycling.

I will encourage and support you in the process of finding and articulating your career vision and putting it into action.

Richard Nelson BollesAuthor of the World’s Best-selling Career and Job Search book (over 10million copies sold).

In ‘Career Detection, Finding and Managing your career,’ Brian introduces us to his Career Detection model, a brilliantly effective process to guide us in working with clients wanting to find or manager their career. The book is filled with many great exercises to identify skills and expertise, find career drivers and learn how to research careers. Brian’s Book is an excellent resource for coaches and for anyone who wants to be their own career coach or detective. I highly recommend it.
