The second day of the conference started in elevated spirits with the duo from The High-Performance Podcast – Jake Humphrey and leading organisational psychologist, Damian Hughes. The pair shared some of the key learnings they have collected from their podcast whilst interviewing high-performance individuals such as Jonny Wilkinson and Dame Kelly Holmes.
Jake and Damian were then joined on stage by the founder of ActionCOACH, Brad Sugars, interviewing him about his own high-performance mindset.

Next up was The New York Times and No.1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Dr. Stephen M.R Covey, who shared the importance of trust in business and how his relationship with his father, renowned author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, have helped shape his leadership techniques.
After both an insightful and hilarious speech on positivity by Ian ‘Woody’ Woodhouse, world-renowned body language expert Mark Bowden shared the importance of non-verbal communication in business. Mark demonstrated that something as simple as a hand position can completely transform how your ideas are being communicated.
The final speaker of the conference was the world-leading veterinary surgeon and bestselling author, the ‘Supervet’ Noel Fitzpatrick, who shared how to get results in the highest-pressure environments. After arriving straight from the operating table, Noel described poignantly how having a passion for your business is not only important but paramount to the success of you and the people around you.
