Speaker
George
Anderson
George Anderson is a wellbeing and performance expert. A speaker, coach and writer, he works with individuals to help them take more action towards improving their physical and mental wellbeing, resilience and performance.
He has shared his messages with organisations such as Oxford University, EdFest, Dell, HPE, Experian, British Land, Nestle, EY, AstraZeneca and the NHS.
George’s 20 year career in the wellbeing industry combined with his experience and education in behavioural sciences such as positive psychology, mindfulness, NLP and neuroscience coaching, uniquely position him to help individuals make changes in their lives both practically and mentally.
His style is often described as ‘motivational speaker meets high performance trainer’, as he shares strategies to build resilience, manage stress, boost energy and regain work life balance.
He draws each individual audience member into his presentations so that they become the hero of their own story. By stripping away the overwhelm and complexity of wellbeing and performance and replacing it with a philosophy of 'progress, not perfection', he creates a vision of ownership and possibility.
George regularly challenges his own limits, and has completed two 24 hour 100 mile ultra marathons, an ironman triathlon and 10 consecutive marathons. He is the author of the Work In Progress journal, and host of the A Bit Of A Boost podcast.

Do you ever walk through the door after a long day at work, only to find that your mind continues to whir at a thousand miles an hour?
If you do, you're not alone.
According to the 2019 Teacher Wellbeing Index, 74% of education professionals consider the inability to switch off and relax to be the major contributing factor to a negative work / life balance.
'Switching off' is your ability to shift your focus away from worries and thoughts about work and onto other non-work-related activities, and it's an issue for children as well as adults.
In this informative, entertaining and engaging session, International wellbeing and performance expert George Anderson will outline the fundamental issues that are preventing you from switching off. He'll present a number of practical tools that can help you access periods of calm inner quiet, essential for balanced wellbeing and mental health.
