Background

About Harry Key

I use humour and a wealth of experiences to help people develop their confidence, and to make them more influential and easy to be around. I authored "Speak for Yourself: Talk to impress, influence and make an impact" which was published by Pearson (link below). My work is what I call 'live-bespoke'. So while I work closely with clients on understanding their needs and tailoring programmes and packages to meet those needs; the sessions themselves are lively and engaging; they will be adjusted and created on-the-fly with the people in the room - organisations have broad needs, the individuals have specific ones. My skill is in recognising and responding to those needs to create experiences that allow people to develop their presence and meet their goals. The workshops typically receive glowing feedback, and leave people with useful skills they can deploy immediately. I've had the pleasure of working with a variety of rather impressive clients, including Telegraph Media Group, Virgin Media, Toyota Financial Services, BBC Worldwide, the Department for Transport (UK Civil Service), Entertainment One, Fremantle Media, Western Union, MTV Networks, Just Eat, Channel 4, Glaxo Smith-Kline and probably more; as well as charity work for clients such as Trinity Homeless Project and The Winch, the director of which described the programme as "The best workshop that has ever been delivered in the 37 year history of the Winch". My clients benefit from my highly varied life experience, which includes acting in Bollywood for 5 years (no, I didn't dance), I'm also and voice artist, was a wedding planner, a market researcher and briefly as an oyster farmer; I occasionally MC weddings and charity events, corporate functions etc, and am an author, and am occasionally brought on telly to talk about talking to people.
