Motivational Speaker & Polar Explorer

SPEECHES, PRESENTATIONS & BRIEFINGS

INSPIRATIONAL & INSIGHTFUL
THOUGHT-PROVOKING & ENTERTAINING

Pen is highly regarded as an inspirational and thought-provoking presenter of motivational speeches, keynote addresses and entertaining after-dinner talks.

His speaking services draw on his career which has seen him receive awards for world-class performances as an explorer, record-breaking adventurer, professional guide, and entrepreneur.

He now offers his hard-won experience and insights – focused on leadership, performance and project management in challenging environments – to audiences across the UK and further afield.

Hailed by The Times as the ‘thinking man’s explorer’, Pen rose to global acclaim when he became the first person to trek solo to the Pole by the hardest route – a feat which has not been repeated.

His subsequent leadership of the pioneering international exploration programme, Catlin Arctic Survey (2007-2013), resulted in global awards for environmental protection, communications technology, and sponsorship.
