Graham’s specialist expertise lies in untapping the potential in each of us to hear what others miss. Over the course of his career, he has developed an expert understanding of this, critical business skill – listening.
Far from being a “soft” skill, Graham believes truly advanced listening is a technical capability that drives improved business performance.
Graham is passionate about maximising business value through understanding the thoughts, feelings and opinions of those we work with. He believes that as highly skilled listeners, with clarity of intent and focussed attention, we can truly learn what others know and think.
Graham draws on a wealth of commercial business experience gained over 25 years in a range of sectors. Having led teams on both sides of the buying/selling table, he’s experienced at first-hand the impact on results of excellent listening to poor listening, and everything in between.

In this episode we talk to Michelle Bauge. Michelle has learned through experience the power of love as personal motivation and inspiration. She is about to publish a children’s book that was born out of her realisation of the power of self-love to heal, that she wanted to share with the world outside her family.
She is a Sports Development Co-Ordinator in Glasgow who during lockdown discovered writing, a gift that has given her the power to set her free. She has studied how the mind works and this gave her self awareness and self esteem, something that she is dedicated to sharing with others.
