About Eagle Training:
To be totally honest with you, we do not claim to be the UK's largest leadership and management training company. We do not have teams of sales people. Nor do we have hundreds of trainers. Eagle Training is actually a small training company with a large reputation for delivering training that gets results.
We have worked with delegates from some of the biggest companies in the UK and internationally. We have also worked with local companies with 10 staff. Click here to see a list of clients that Eagle have worked with.
We have a small but very experienced team of facilitators and trainers dedicated to inspire your people to improve their performance. We select the most qualified and best suited for your company, matching up what you want to achieve with their experience and style. Here are the key members of the facilitation team:
Ian Henderson
After a promising career as a professional footballer was cruelly extinguished by injury and a chronic lack of skill, Ian trained as a teacher. After a spell working for a Canadian bank, Ian returned to the UK to join BP where he was a member of the Project 1990 culture change team.
Since leaving BP in 1993 Ian has worked with people from many blue chip organisations in the UK, US and Europe including Cadbury Schweppes, Robert Bosch, Sir Robert McAlpine, Vodafone, Halliburton and The Home Office.
"Excellent material. Ian's personal thoughts were thought provoking without being prescriptive. He constantly checked that it was working for us to ensure we understood."
Ian works across many subject areas, but he specialises in leadership and management development, communication, change management and behavioural and attitudinal change. He holds an MBA, is a member of the Institute of Leadership and Management (MInstLM) and is a qualified NLP practitioner and coach. He is also an accredited DiSC profiler. Ian has an enthusiastic style of facilitation that challenges the thinking processes of those he works with.
Ian is now the Director of Training of Eagle Training. A speaker of repute (some would say mostly ill), Ian is noted for his enthusiastic, entertaining and informative speaking style. He is the author of several papers and Algenon's Story, his first book, was published in 2008.
Ian has appeared on CNBC's Money Wheel television programme and has frequently been a guest on local radio.
