Former Olympic Campion and world record hurdler Doctor David Hemery CBE has been announced as guest speaker for the Swindon Mindful Employer Network's big 2017 Conference.
David, who was BBC Sports Personality 1968 and three times winner of Sporting Superstars, spent his life in education, teaching in Secondary Schools, Boston and Cambridge Universities and senior managers in business.
His life-long passion has been finding the keys to fulfilling potential. Using his life experiences and research his talks and writing aim to inspire, engage and empower audiences to help them to unlock more of their own potential and that of those whom they lead as teachers, managers, parents, coaches or leaders.
Melanie Richens, the voluntary Chair of the Swindon Mindful Employer Network said: “David is a highly experienced and recognised business coach and we are very much looking forward to hearing from him in October. I believe Swindon businesses will be excited by this development and I encourage employers to send a representative along. This network is now one of the largest and most successful in the area and its focus on mental health and wellbeing and business culture is proving extremely attractive.”
David, who lives in Wiltshire, said: “Businesses are waking up to the challenges we all face in the modern world, which increasingly means a reassessment of management and business culture and to look afresh at practices and policies for workplace wellbeing. What is very encouraging is that Swindon employers seem ahead of the curve on this issue and it will be good to meet as many as possible at the Swindon Marriott in October.”
The Conference will take place at the Swindon Marriott on Monday 9 October. Doctor David Hemery will also be joined by Professor of organisational psychology Sir Cary Cooper and more announcements will be made later in the year.
Places for this event are available for representatives of employers in the Swindon and surrounding area only. To find out more, visit their website here.
