Leadership In Business with Nick O'Sullivan MBE | MOO Coaching
Bio
Nick’s thirteen years as an officer in the Royal Marines, four of which were with the Special Forces, taught him a huge amount about both the immense privilege, but also the huge responsibility of leading people. Leading well, and leading ethically, sounds easy, but – as he found - can require huge amounts of courage.
His first role after the Marines was as a Wealth Manager, to help protect the futures of the families he supported.
He then realised that he had more to offer business leaders in terms of helping them develop their own leadership and management skills using the incredible training and experiences he had developed. Consequently, he co-founded Mojave Training to help empower them.
Some of his clients wanted more than just the advice and development Nick offered. Some wanted him to lead. His first paid Directorship was as Interim Chair, providing strong and decisive, but fair, compassionate and ethical guidance in challenging conditions.
Nick’s journey is one which has taken him from an unstable childhood, leading to near crippling self-doubt, to one of a confident, capable and modern leader. It’s a story which enables Nick to inspire audiences around the world.
My Approach
My first responsibility is to understand, so I listen.
I provide insight based on the experiences I have lived and seen others live, but I always endeavour to heed the perspectives of those around me.
Courage is my core value. Courage enables me to be confident in my integrity. I do not lie. This ensures that I always have the necessary conversations, no matter how hard they may be.
The candour that results from my integrity is balanced by empathy and compassion. I respect the rights and power of the individual, but I also understand the influence of the group. I am able to identify the leadership and management ‘levers’ to harness both.
