Andrew Strauss OBE – Motivational Speaker:
As a motivational speaker, his leadership qualities and mature and personable character enables him to deliver key leadership and teamwork messages to the very highest standard.
Captaincy for Andrew was not about ‘putting an armband on’, it was about planning the strategy both in the short term and even more importantly long term with reference to how England were to become number 1 in the world.
His involvement in this process was integral to how the England team moved from a talented group of individuals to becoming the best team in the World.
Andrew believes he has a great deal to share with the Corporate World whereby he will deliver a highly polished and credible presentation to business leaders, senior management and employees on his experiences and how such experiences shaped his strategy and planning around his own position as Leader and Captain of the England Team… and most importantly how this can be used in Business.
Andrew Strauss shares his experiences – good and bad – as captain of the England cricket team.
He takes delegates on a journey which includes his planning and strategy after taking over the captaincy when the management and the team were in dis-array.
How he galvanised the team, cajoled and brought the best out of individuals, plotted the team’s direction to be taken and led a group of players towards respectability and then of course the ultimate goal of winning the Ashes in Australia.
