Meet The Author: Graham Shaw

4th March 2020

Graham is an international conference speaker and speaker coach. He has delivered training in corporations worldwide, helping business leaders to present with confidence.

He is best-known for his ability to convey business ideas with a quick sketch. His audiences have been amazed to discover that they too can draw. His masterclasses on ‘How to sketch ideas to make them memorable’ are hugely popular, especially with business trainers.

Graham’s talk at TEDx Hull in 2015  has been viewed over 27 million times. More recently he spoke at TEDx Vienna and he has coached many TEDx speakers.

He is also the author of ‘The Art of Business Communication’ which was shortlisted for the Chartered Management Institute’s Management Book of the Year Competition 2016.   The book shows the reader how to draw simple sketches to present business ideas.

Just some of the organisations Graham has helped include BP, Chelsea FC, Google, Henley Business School, HSBC Bank,  Oracle, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Specsavers.

Graham’s inspiration for writing this book was to share tips gained from his wealth of experience. In the relatively short time it takes to read the book, the reader will learn 60 powerful pro-speaker secrets that could otherwise take years to discover.

The idea of the book is that the ability to get your message across is essential to success in any job. The value the book is that it teaches  proven ways to engage any audience on any topic. It enables the reader to speak with impact, whatever the occasion.

The focus and research required to write the book has given Graham an even greater understanding of what makes the difference in successful public speaking.

The book has increased Graham’s profile as a speaker and speaker coach. It has led to requests to speak on BBC radio and television and for articles in major business publications.
