These are the latest events that Keith has been a speaker at.
Many of our clients are moving to running training through webinars during the Covid 19 pandemic and today saw me delivering an India cultural awareness webinar for a UK-based aerospace and defence company who have number of large-scale projects in India. This programme had originally been arranged as a ‘live’ training session but had to […]
It’s always interesting to spend time working on in-house counsel cultural awareness for lawyers from global companies. It’s interesting for several reasons but it is particularly interesting as I spend much more time with lawyers from BigLaw firms around the world. Obviously, working with in-house counsel teams gives me the view from the other side […]
I have worked on India outsourcing projects for the best part of 15 years now and the issues companies face seem to remain the same. I often feel that I could write down the challenges a company will be facing on a piece of paper, stick it into a sealed envelope and then produce it […]

I spent three days last week working with 40 senior associates and legal directors from DLA Piper in London. This was a truly global event with the lawyers coming from 22 different countries and 28 different offices. The main focus of the programme was around global pitch training for lawyers. The Management Academies that DLA […]
Last week saw me running a series of training programmes on the world-renowned MBA programme at Warwick Business School (apparently ranked 36th in the world and 4th in the UK.) I was helping to develop global cultural fluency and MBA’s definitely need this skill! There were a couple of remarkable things about these programmes: Firstly, […]
I often find myself working with teams who have been tasked to control implementing global strategy roll out across complex international organisations. Everybody knows that such roll-outs are difficult for a number of reasons: Poor articulation of the strategy Resistance from the business which feels disconnected Lack of resource within the strategy team Strategy key […]
