Shed's journey into the corporate world was at times unconventional, with a degree in Experimental Psychology at Balliol College, Oxford and a background working in TV production. However, he soon became known industry-wide for his innovative and ground-breaking ideas and television shows. In 2003 he became the Commissioning Editor of Channel 4's ‘Big Brother’ and has since discovered and launched many television stars, including Tess Daly and Kelly Brook. It is thanks to his out-of-the-box thinking that he created his innovative merchandising empire, creating executive toys, conceptual novelty gifts and even his own currency. To date, he has sold over 1.5 million products worldwide. An expert in ideas, Shed has a strong belief in 'failing upwards' and launching numerous ideas in order to learn from the experiences they generate. It is this somewhat unusual belief, that has formed the basis of his books and is brought into his corporate presentations, within which he shares his top three methods to unlock creative thinking. His expertise in product invention, idea generation and sales innovation, inspires profitable changes and gives audiences the tools they need to create their own business opportunities and increase profits.
His speeches are designed to motivate audiences to recognise their own talent and his infectious positivity inspires audiences to reshape their way of thinking and how they view potential challenges. Showcasing his own unique career path, Shed's talks use props and multimedia visuals to add to captivate audiences and engage them. His speeches can be tailored to individual events and always leave guests inspired to try the techniques he demonstrates. Known as ‘The Ideas Man’, Shed shares his concrete techniques for any audience looking for practical, innovative ideas to energise their organisation to think differently and focus on obtaining huge success. His range and rate of success is vast which make his performances wonderfully motivational and brilliantly entertaining. Shed has performed his visual and inspirational Motivational Speeches to both entrepreneurs and non-business people alike. Shed is a truly compelling, uniquely memorable, one-off performer.

" ‘Less talk and more action’ is the name of Shed's game, as he goes through a countless number of practical tips on idea generation, and how to execute them as well. There are thousands of ideas practically staring you in the face; all you need is a bit of Shed inspiration to be the catalyst. "
Desigan Chinniah, Ebay
" Every so often, a speaker ‘owns’ the stage and wows the audience. I would say Shed is definitely a rock star among the business and innovation speakers! He exceeded all our expectations, being a star on and off the stage and I would strongly recommend him. "
Valerija Prevolsek, Managing Director, SEMPL
" Genius! Shed captured his creative steps and delivers them with passionate, understandable and hilarious stories of his successes (and failures). He's brilliant at challenging people to think differently and at kick-starting any creative innovation session! "
