Reach For The Top With Speaker Bernie De Souza

It is not just top level sports personalities who benefit from the wit and wisdom of professional motivational and leadership speaker Bernie De Souza.

There's been Olympians Daley Thompson and Linford Christy in the past as well as champion boxer Ernie Shavers to be grateful for his coaching and confidence building skills .

More recently he has motivated top sports personalities at the height of their game as well as scores of companies who are grateful for his wise words.

Much of them have been narrated in his most recently published book Your Success Is....Hidden in Your Daily Routine' as well as a previous hot seller 'Unlock Your Dreams' - regarded as a blueprint for building up a successful networking organisation like he did.

Bernie De Souza never expects anyone to do anything which he wouldn't do himself. The level three cricket coach who loves helping top cricketers make the most of their skills, also helps business people make the most of their talents.

Confidence building is one of his main skills. He learned it the hard way because when he was growing up in a council house he didn't have many achievement hopes.

But these humble beginnings spurred him on and he gained in stature after receiving excellent training in the RAF where he was a PT instructor. .

Here, he came across a multitude of aspiring sportsmen who went on to achieve Olympic greatness with confidence boosting from Bernie and his colleagues. They were determined to show that self discipline, strong will and determination works wonders – traits that helped Bernie build up a fortune later when he ran a massive sales empire.

Bernie was always a good sportsman himself and built up a following who watched his rise in cricket and football. Apart from working with the MCC in recent years he can often be found motivating and advising fellow sportsmen and women in this sport and many others at the highest levels.

It wasn't long before he found himself having to motivate and inspire huge groups of people – so many in fact that he regularly booked huge auditoriums seating thousands such as the famous NEC and NIA in Birmingham as well as London Docklands to cater for the people needing his confidence boosting and sales advice.

He regularly shared top billing with other people motivators such as Allan Pease, explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes, Rugby ace Will Carling, billionaire businessman Robert Kiyosaki, Olympian Kriss Akabusi, and BBC presenter and football personality Alan Hansen.

Naturally, Bernie listens carefully to what they have to say and is thrilled when they give him personal advice. Now, as a professional public speaker registered with the professional speakers association, he is sought after by audiences keen for him to tell his own secrets of success.

Today he speaks around the world and advises businesses and individuals seeking his special brand of motivational and sales magic, based on his personal experiences in top level sport, business and the military.

The fact that he added personal profiling to his skills has been an added boon for the speaker who is so good at people assessment that he can tell at a glance what type of person he is dealing with and how best to handle conversations and communications with them. He can even tell what they are like from the way they speak on the telephone. These are brilliant in the sales arena where he excels and is a noted and sought after speaker.
