Pushing harder isn't working.

The pressure is rising and targets are slipping. You’ve got to do more with less and it feels like pushing harder is the only option. It might get results this quarter, but there’s a cost.

About Joe

I spent the first half of my career working in client facing sales roles, most recently at Oracle. Despite outward success, I was struggling with depression. I masked the pain and still managed to make high flyer trips and win awards, but the cost was total burnout. I couldn’t find the support I was looking for so I decided to create it myself.

That became Reconnect, a social enterprise dedicated to helping people find the community and tools they need to grow from life’s toughest times. I’m now a TEDx mental health speaker, facilitator and consultant. My work is informed by my research with over 1,000 UK adults and the Reconnect pilot, which was evaluated by the University of East London and reported excellent outcomes. I’ve collaborated with a range of organisations, including FTSE 250 businesses, the British Psychological Society, UCL and the NHS.

I’m the only speaker who’s carried a SaaS quota, created a mental health social enterprise and given a TEDx talk. I combine these experiences to help tech go-to-market leaders create connected cultures where teams can keep performing without burning out.

Three ways I work with teams:

Keynotes

Help your team find the balance between high performance and burnout, build their own mental health toolkit, and foster connection. Thought-provoking and practical, they inspire teams to open up and find what really works.

Team Development

Training and workshops built to sustain high performance, have honest conversations and lead under pressure. Delivered alongside Platfform, so change lasts and cultures shift.

Ongoing Support

Facilitated team conversations that catch problems early, and individual counselling for colleagues who need it. Delivered alongside Platfform for support that’s there when it matters.

Joe’s story is a truly powerful one and his bravery in sharing it so openly is inspirational. Everyone in attendance could related to his story in some way and it helped clear some of the confusing and generic messages often spoken about mental health in the workplace. Joe’s talk offered a more understandable and human view of our mental health, which led to our team opening up and connecting on a deeper level.
