Jim is a Keynote Speaker, Executive Coach, Author and Ultra Cyclist

Jim is interested in what’s possible. Having flown around the world competing in some of the toughest races on the planet, Jim has a very clear idea of what is possible. Drawing from his personal, sporting and professional career, Jim has seen and experienced perceived impossibilities turn into reality. From this, he absolutely

knows that the majority of us are barely scratching the surface of our potential,

whether that’s on the tennis court or in the boardroom. On a one-to-one level, Jim has an uncanny way of getting to the core of who you are. With your permission, he works with you to uncover those beliefs that may well be preventing you from achieving your absolute max in ALL that you do. His sessions are deep and challenging - this reflects his philosophy that “everyone is built for greatness”. He combines this with being a parent of 4 children and his sporting career, he has competed in 15 Ironman Triathlons around the world and more recently has competed in The Race Across America (a 3000 mile cycle race), for the 3rd consecutive year.

Jim is the only British rider to finish the race more than once as a solo rider! (2007, 2008 & 2009 going faster each year)

Sam Moinet is leading the revolution in student well-being.

As a teacher for half a decade, Sam found many problems within the education system. Many students failed to achieve the grades they wanted, they lacked self-confidence and were not motivated to achieve their very best.

Having gained his coaching qualifications Sam began working with students on a one-to-one basis and the results were incredible. His enthusiastic and professional approach gave students the chance to learn so much about themselves which enabling them overcome their challenges.

Sam created his own coaching programme that uses simple and effective tools so that students can believe in themselves, who they are and how they can achieve their best. So far Student Breakthrough has helped 1000’s students worldwide whilst supporting ten schools and universities.

Sam has trained hundreds of teachers and educators to deliver his 3B programme of Boost, Believe and Breakthrough in order to bring coaching to more students and help more young people.
