Eleven years on a nightclub door. Thirty in the boardroom. Both taught me the same thing about power.
Keith Power
The Leadership Philosopher
Author of The Power Within · Keynote speaker · Executive coach
Keynotes for leadership teams who have heard every motivational speech and are ready for something truer.
Speaking
1
The Power Within
A 40-minute conference keynote. Pressure rarely finds a leader short of capability. It finds the places where who they are and how they lead have drifted apart.
2
Behind the Tough Guy
A 45-minute keynote and conversation for smaller rooms. Eleven years on a South London door, and what the hard face was really protecting. The most personal talk I give.
3
The Right Question
Fireside chats and peer forums. An unscripted conversation about the question nobody else in the room is willing to ask.
Coaching
1
Twelve one-to-one sessions over six months, with WhatsApp support in between. We work through identity, the story you tell yourself, how others experience you, and how you lead under pressure. We finish with a plan you'll actually use.
2
One- or two-day workshops built around your team's real challenges: nudge management, time mastery, managing complexity, emotional agility and strategic communication. Pair them with one-to-one coaching and the learning survives the following Monday.
3
Three sessions, one problem. For leaders facing a specific decision, roadblock or conversation who need clarity quickly.
4
Fourteen weekly sessions for newly appointed or promoted leaders. We cover stakeholders, culture, your team and early priorities, so you build credibility before the organisation makes up its mind about you.
Keith Power
The Leadership Philosopher
I left school in Merthyr Tydfil at sixteen and Wales at seventeen. For almost eleven years I worked nightclub doors in South London, where I learned more about power, fear and self-control than any classroom could have taught me.
Then came thirty years in corporate life: sales, general management, then senior leadership in Poland, Australia, the Netherlands, Singapore and China. The part of the job I was best at was developing people, and several of those I led went on to C-suite roles, including chief executive.
Along the way I chaired The Wallich, Wales's largest homelessness charity, through Covid, and sat on the board of National Theatre Wales.
Today I write, speak and coach from Singapore. My book The Power Within: Ancient Greek Wisdom for Modern Leaders launches in November 2026. I host The Power Within podcast and I'm a certified clinical hypnotherapist.
Everything I do rests on one belief: leadership is an inner discipline. Self-knowledge and character come before any framework. The Greeks knew it two and a half thousand years ago.
Why an Executive Coach?
The leaders I work with have plenty of people offering advice. Very few of those people sit outside the organisation, have nothing riding on the decision, and will tell them the truth. That's the role I play.
I've led teams through acquisitions, restructures, new markets and my own mistakes. I know what the job feels like from the inside, including the parts nobody puts in the annual report.
“Working with Keith was a game-changer. His expert guidance, cultural insight, and ongoing support helped me lead with clarity, communicate with impact and exceed my own high expectations. Highly recommended!"
