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.
Services Offered
Motivus 12-Step Executive Coaching Programme
When leaders perform at their best, the impact ripples across the entire organisation. But senior leadership can be a lonely place. The conversations that matter most are often the ones you can't have inside the business. Coaching gives you a confidential room to have them, with someone who has sat in your chair.
Duration: 12 sessions over 6 months (1-hour sessions, every two weeks plus ad hoc WhatsApp support)
Format: 1:1 confidential coaching with Keith Power, Executive Coach & Founder of Motivus Coaching
The Motivus 12-Step Programme is a structured yet flexible coaching journey designed to help professionals and leaders unlock their full potential. Over 12 sessions, we focus on strategic clarity, personal growth, and leadership impact - tailored to your unique goals and context.
This is not about quick fixes. It’s about building sustainable habits, deepening self-awareness, and sharpening your leadership edge in a rapidly changing world.
Session Roadmap & Focus Areas
1. Clarity & Commitment
“Where are you now - and what do you truly want?”
We set clear intentions for the coaching journey, explore current challenges and opportunities, and begin defining what success looks like for you.
2. Leadership Identity
“Who are you when you lead at your best?”
Discover your leadership values, voice, and strengths and how to lead more authentically and effectively.
3. Inner Narrative & Mindset
“What beliefs shape your actions?”
We uncover the inner dialogue, limiting beliefs, and patterns that may be holding you back - and begin to reframe them.
4. Strategic Self-Awareness
“What’s your impact, and how do others see you?”
Use tools like 360 feedback or self-assessments to explore your leadership presence, perception, and blind spots.
5. Energy & Effectiveness
“How do you show up, and where are you leaking energy?”
Examine time, focus, and energy habits. Learn how to protect what matters and perform without burning out.
6. Communication with Impact
“How do you influence and inspire?”
Refine how you listen, speak, and lead in conversations - from team meetings to tough feedback.
7. Navigating Complexity
“How do you make decisions under pressure?”
Explore adaptive thinking, decision-making styles, and how to thrive amid ambiguity and competing priorities.
8. Purpose & Legacy
“What are you here to build, lead, or change?”
Step back to connect with your bigger picture; what drives you and what impact you want to leave behind.
9. Leading Others
“How do you develop people while driving performance?”
Deepen your capacity to coach, empower, and stretch others while creating psychological safety.
10. Resilience & Emotional Mastery
“How do you stay grounded when things get tough?”
Build tools for emotional agility, stress recovery, and inner strength in challenging times.
11. Integration & Influence
“What needs to change in your system?”
We look at the broader environment - stakeholders, culture, systems, and how to align influence with intent.
12. Reflection & Growth Plan
“What’s next for you?”
Consolidate your insights, revisit your goals, and shape a practical forward plan to sustain growth beyond coaching.

To reinforce and personalise the learning, we offer individual executive coaching for each participant. These 1:1 coaching sessions help leaders embed new behaviours, tackle specific challenges, and accelerate their development long after the workshop ends.
By combining group learning with individualised support, our programme doesn’t just teach leadership, it transforms it.

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!"
