Frank Dick
Renowned as one of the best motivational speakers today, Frank Dick's presentations are highly amusing and anecdotal, challenging and inspirational, making uncomfortable listening for anyone prepared to accept second best.
Coaching and Motivational Speaking
Coaching has been Frank's raison d'être for decades, inspiring world-beating performances from some of the top names in sport - Daley Thompson, Boris Becker, Gerhard Berger, Denise Lewis, Marat Safin and Katarina Witt. He is currently involved with Ronnie Irani, Graham Gooch OBE, Justin Rose, Ipswich Town Football Academy and Jean Todt (Ferrari Formula One Manager). In business, he has helped develop a coaching culture in Barclays, British Telecom, Unilever, Shell, Abbey National and Rolls Royce.
His expertise derives from years of detailed research into individual success and achievement. Frank combines this wealth of knowledge and experience into an informative and motivational approach to achieving long-lasting transformation of both individual and team performance.

Frank has been recognised with three awards:
- In recognition of the work he has done to create a coaching culture within the company, Abbey National and Frank jointly received a major training award from the prestigious American Society of Training and Development.
- The Golden Pin Award from the European Athletics Association (EAA) for his outstanding achievements in coaching and development
