Les Morgan

Since 2004, Les Morgan’s true vocation is challenging people to change their lives through an innovative journey to authentic leadership. He focuses on culture change, leadership, trust and the importance of values and their measurement to ensure sustainable organizations. He has worked in the public, private and educational sectors with clients including W L Gore (U.K.’s Best Company To Work For 2004-2007), Ernst and Young (Switzerland, U.K. and Ireland), The London Metropolitan Police Service, World Health Organization (Geneva and Istanbul), Scottish Enterprise, Glasgow Caledonian University, Edinburgh University, secondary and primary schools, plus companies in Switzerland, Spain and the Czech Republic.

Morgan is a YPO Certified Forum Facilitator, working with leaders across Europe on personal development and greater self-awareness. His main focus has been in facilitating retreats to enable forums to go deeper and achieve breakthrough into greater authenticity. Morgan’s ethos is that great leadership is not a formula or a program; it is an attitude, and behaviour — about opening the heart, and inspiring — oneself and others.

He began his career as a teacher and worked in the leisure management space. In 1991, Morgan became the U.K.’s second youngest local authority Chief Executive at age 38 with Moray Council. As a volunteer, Morgan was Chair of a youth befriending charity for 10 years and works with CRISIS for the homeless in London each Christmas. He is a keen sportsman after playing basketball for Scotland and became a skiing, windsurfing, basketball and squash coach. He lives between the Highlands of Scotland and Melbourne Australia and has two children (Ria 25 and Ry 31) who both live and work in London.
