Over the past 25 years, Alan Baker has worked as a ‘live communication' consultant for many of the top companies in Europe. Before joining Sea Change, Alan was ‘Director of Creative Rule Breaking' at the number two Internal Communication company in the UK. As well as facilitating major ‘evolution' and ‘merger' influenced communication strategies, Alan has first-hand experience of building large teams to deliver time-critical, measurable results.
He believes that a positive attitude is the most important quality of successful people and that experience is not what happens to people, it is what people do with what happens to them.
Alan believes in creating ‘curious' people. People who dare to dream. People who have the courage to look in the mirror and to learn something about themselves. That's why he is committed to providing clients with opportunities to benefit from the ‘Sea Change experience'.
Mike has worked for over 20 years at a senior level in Human Resources and People Development.

As well as managing major business change programmes, Mike has considerable experience of practical leadership and team development.

Mike's experience of change management and knowledge of current business thinking and practice, helps clients to identify their commercial and behavioural objectives, and to ensure that the learning is not only focused, but is applied, in practice, back in the workplace.
Peter has been involved in operational management for over twenty years.
Responsible for large and small teams, managing people through strategic evolution and change programmes.
Underpinning this work has been a passion for people development and training to realise and release potential and inherent skills. A commitment to training out of doors, away from the everyday workplace has seen Peter operate in a wide range of environments.
Peter believes in facilitating training through clear communication skills and the development of an honest and open face-to-face management style. This is especially powerful with mixed business teams, putting together cross sections of an organisation, to learn about each other and to help develop interdependence. Peter's belief in the Sea Change method is undimmed since completing a series of programmes for his own business teams some 15 years ago
