Kevin Gaskell’s journey embodies the transformative power of determination and adaptability. Initially setting his sights on Civil Engineering, he delved into the intricacies of the construction industry, honing his skills on notable projects.

With a reputation for turning round world class brands, He believes you can rescue a company in 100 days and turn it into a hugely successful enterprise in 1000 days.
Kevin used the same techniques of inspired leadership to transform businesses and to create successful teams to overcome some of the world’s toughest environments – the Artic, Antarctic, unforgiving mountain summits and the Atlantic Ocean.
Today Kevin Gaskell actively chairs, invests and partners with a small number of companies helping them to achieve market leading growth and to manage change successfully.
Kevin is a natural communicator with the ability to lead, build and motivate a management team and to engage the team throughout an organisation.
A great speech has many elements, but it needs to do two things:
Engage the audience from start to finish
Energise them to take action
The second won’t happen without the first and the first alone doesn’t get results!
Kevin Gaskell has a unique talent for engaging audiences – and for inspiring them to take action. His experiences of driving turnarounds, achieving 500% profit growth and transforming local companies into global players were acquired within the corporate environment.

Since then Kevin Gaskell has helped to fund a new cancer treatment centre and to support Alan Chambers MBE in the development of Extreme Classrooms™ an outdoor learning experience making a difference to the lives of vulnerable teenagers.
