John Shackleton
has achieved his sporting success late in life after realising that
it was low self esteem that held him back in his youth. At the age
of 48 John is swimming faster than he was as a teenager, when
international sporting stardom was within his grasp. A huge
inferiority complex consistently denied him the triumph his talent
deserved but studying sports psychology helped him to overcome this.
His enlightening and exhilarating journey towards TOP international
sporting achievement culminating in a top five placing in both the
100m & 400m Freestyle events at the 2000 World Masters Swimming
Championships in Munich. It's a unique story about triumph over
adversity and It has made him an unusual and sought after business
coach.
John Shackleton became one of Europe’s top
inspirational speakers after achieving success in many
areas. Successful businessman, International sports coach, Property
developer, British masters swimming champion, Executive coach to
CEO’s and MD’s.
Today, it makes him a unique and powerful motivational speaker with
a story borne out of life experience not trite text book theory.
John Shackleton
says "My passion is showing people that self limitation is what
holds us back. Sport psychology teaches us about self belief and how
important it is to achieving peak performance. All we need to do is
to apply the techniques that sports people use, to our business and
personal life. Applying these techniques means that we can achieve
so much more."
John’s talks explain the importance of controlling attitude,
confidence, self-esteem, and mental focus.
“My passion is helping
people to understand how improving these things, greatly enhances
their performance either as a producer themselves or a manager of
others”.
John’s style is energetic, amusing and hard hitting, using
examples from business and sporting achievements (and failures!) and
then adapting them to his audience’s environment.
