Steven Marshall

• Making decisions
• Fighter pilot
• Leadership skills

Steven's focus is upon developing organisational solutions to confront rapid change, uncertainty and complexity. His experience is derived from his earlier career as a military fighter pilot and is reinforced by wide experience in the public and private sector. His workshops on fast decision-making under pressure are particularly popular.

Examples of his recent work include developing interventions:

• Supporting the development of appropriate leadership behaviours in a complex healthcare organisation
• Developing leadership and innovation skills in a large telecoms organisation through the use of group simulation and outdoor exercises
• Training to enhance decision making skills for media executives to develop thinking around participation and collaboration derived from the aviation and high reliability industries

During his flying career he held various positions encompassing training and operational leadership roles including the periodic command of fighter operations at airbase and national level, exercising control of up to 15 Tornado aircraft and 250 personnel.

Steve underpins his practitioner skills with a first degree in communication and media, an MBA from a leading business school and the recent award of the Ashridge MSc in Organisation Consulting.
