Richard Shorter
Head of Awkward Conversations
Richard helps performance-focused environments navigate the conversations most people avoid. Through talks, coaching, and continuing professional development (CPD), he equips leaders, coaches, teachers and parents to:
- Tackle tension with calm and clarity
- Listen in a way that motivates, not manipulates
- Handle awkward feedback without conflict or shutdown
- Build cultures where truth and trust go hand in hand.
Examples of some of those whose conversations he has impacted include England Rugby, Manchester United, Manchester City, Motorsport UK, the England Cricket Board, Millfield School, Wellington College, Linklaters and over 40 independent schools.
