For 26 years, G was a police officer in London's Metropolitan Police Service, where he came out as the UK's first openly gay Black police officer.


During his service with London’s Metropolitan Police Service, G facilitated workshops as part of national initiatives, implemented by the National Police Improvement Agency, to increase D+I awareness and practices supporting both frontline and executive leaders. He also delivered bespoke leadership programs specifically designed for minority groups (The Positive Action Leadership Program).


G delivers keynote presentations, workshops and coaches senior executives in one-on-one sessions on how to navigate the D+I maze, utilising a series of safe and confidential conversations along, with awareness's stretching experiential exercises.


Amongst his clients are a number of UK Police services, The Scottish Fire Service, Nestle, RAF, The Intelligence Services, Cadent Gas, and Thames Water. As well as collaborating with Saybrook University in Oakland, California, for the 'Global Voices for Change 'project.
