Brendan Hall is an award-winning speaker, author, coach and consultant who helps create high performance cultures for teams and organisations.

He’s 1 of only 10 people in the world to lead the winning team in the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race – an epic 10 month long, 40,000 mile ocean sailing race around the planet where the strongest teamwork always wins.

Although Brendan was the youngest and least experienced skipper in the race, his team won it in convincing fashion. They didn’t win because Brendan was the best sailor or strategist, but because he created the most engaged and empowered on-board culture, with a compelling vision, strong values and a continuous-improvement mindset.

Trusted to deliver inspiration and outcomes by some of the world's most exceptional organisations – Google, Toyota, GSK, Coca-Cola, HSBC & McKinsey, to name a few.

Acting as a creative catalyst, Brendan unlocks the latent potential within teams, helping develop resilience, connection, collaboration and better leadership. A superb presenter and a natural storyteller, Brendan’s sessions are a mixture of psychology, teamwork & leadership practice, wrapped in an engrossing globe-spanning story that keeps his audience on the edge of their seat.

Brendan now shares the driving forces behind his team’s winning result: Embracing change, building psychological safety, leveraging multiplier effects, overcoming adversity, maintaining trust and creating a culture of full ownership.

An energetic presenter and a natural storyteller, these take-aways are wrapped in an engrossing, emotional, cinematic story that keeps his audience on the edge of their seat.

He is the author of Team Spirit: Life & Leadership on The World’s Toughest Yacht Race (Bloomsbury, 2012). Team Spirit has become a valuable resource for business leaders and has been featured in Economia, The Sunday Times and shortlisted for the prestigious Mountbatten Book Award.
