Motivation Shots from The Doc

Hiring a speaker is a huge responsibility. You need an expert, with an appropriate message and one who will inspire your audience. An expert who knows how to make your business more successful, who makes the message simple and will tailor his “speech” to your specific needs.

Alan Fairweather, “The Motivation Doctor,” is an International Speaker, Best Selling Author and Sales Growth Expert. He will reveal how to – motivate your customers, motivate your team and motivate yourself!

For the past seventeen years, he’s been developing the talents of Managers, Sales and Customer Service people, and turning them into consistent top performers.

Alan is a specialist in the Banking, Financial Services, Retail, Real Estate, Telecommunications, and Hospitality Industries. His inspirational and  entertaining, seminars are delivered in the UK, Singapore, Indonesia and Vietnam.

Areas of Expertise

Alan did the job of a middle manager – and did it effectively for fifteen years. He knows the real challenges that managers and team leaders face every day with their people.

He’s used the “3 Secrets of Motivation” he speaks about in his seminars, they worked for him and they will work for managers in any organisation.

Alan held positions such as Sales Engineer, Regional Manager, Training Manager and General Sales Manager. A total of twenty-seven years was spent in sales and management.

Alan’s strengths as a Speaker and Seminar Leader lie in his depth of knowledge across business sectors coupled with energy, enthusiasm and sensitivity to participant needs. He is also conscious of the need to satisfy the client organisation’s business objectives.

Background

After training as an engineer with Barr and Stroud Alan moved into a sales career with Russell Hobbs, Eutectic Welding, Loctite UK, George Boyd, and Carlsberg Tetley.

Alan held positions such as Sales Engineer, Regional Manager, Training Manager, and General Sales Manager. A total of twenty-seven years was spent in sales and management.

Alan believes passionately in the need for personal communication skills training whether to deal with a customer, colleague or member of staff. There is normally insufficient focus on these skills as there is a general belief that product knowledge, business skills and an adherence to policies and procedures will produce business success. He believes that it has become increasingly important for organisations to improve interactions with their internal and external customers so ensuring a competitive advantage.

Developing skills in Management, Leadership and Motivation requires a change in mindset. This is more likely to occur successfully when participants are relaxed, non-threatened and enjoy the event. Alan strives to ensure this happens.

Alan’s strengths as a Speaker and Seminar Leader lie in his depth of knowledge across business sectors coupled with energy, enthusiasm and sensitivity to participant needs. He is also conscious of the need to satisfy the client organisation’s business objectives.
