Keynote Speaking

DOWNLOAD DECK

I'm a relentless optimist and living proof of what it means to overcome the impossible, and I speak openly about failure, fear, pain and uncertainty - alongside achievement and success.

My ability to translate extreme endurance into practical, relevant lessons allows audiences at every level, from frontline teams to senior executives, to see themselves in my story. I connect authentically across hierarchy, function, and generation, turning extraordinary experiences into clear, actionable insights for modern organisations.

"It's my story but it's not about me; it's about what you take from it to create change in your own life."

  • "This guy is an inspiration.”

    David Best, Managing Director,

    Morgan Stanley International Audit Director

  • “The mark of a great story is when it truly connects with people, arousing emotions and feelings. The mark of a great speaker is when they take a story and also evoke inspiration and motivation in the audience. James Golding has a powerful story. He tells it in a no-nonsense manner which will have any audience on the edge of their chair whilst walking away determined to change something about their future.”

    Phil Jones MBE

    Managing Director Brother UK

  • You would think James’ story revolved around world record breaking endurance cycling and his experiences and challenges. In reality, that barely touches the surface! It is in knowing James’ ‘backstory’, and how he treats achieving the extraordinary as being nothing other than perfectly ordinary, that you get to the essence of a humble and inspirational man.
