Chris Britton is a forward thinking thought leader, author and podcast host, who has led the people agenda across some of the biggest brands in the world.
For the past 15 years, Chris has used his empathy first approach to humanity to drive positive change and high performance in organisations including Virgin, Vodafone, River Island and Reward Gateway. Chris’s passion for seeing people for who they are, not just what they can do has led to him to inspiring audiences across the world with a mix a ground-breaking research, personal story telling, humour and practical next steps.
Growing up during the Troubles in Northern Ireland in the 90s, Chris’ fascination with how people operate and make choices, especially under extreme pressure, led him studying Criminology and Psychology at Brighton University and starting his journey into the HR space, making a difference to organisations from the inside.
Not content with the theory, Chris joined Sussex Police in 2015 as a Special Constable and is still an active and serving police officer enabling him to blend the academics with real and often gruesome life experiences. His story telling is a mix of personal and professional examples which make the hair on your neck stand up and gives audiences a peak behind the curtain of what society is really like.
Chris talks about the stresses and strains that organisations are under and why doing more with less is unsustainable. Instead, he focuses in on how businesses can use the concept of appreciation to unlock high performance whilst making a positive contribution to the lives of your employees. Less with less and making it count.
Chris’ personal story is one of heart break, personal struggles and resilience. After suffering with post-natal depression after the birth of his first daughter and uncovering buried and repressed emotions from a life where his identity was never certain, Chris now openly talks about the challenges facing all human beings with an expert lens shone on the changing of masculinity and why wellbeing needs to evolve to whole being and how best practice just doesn’t cut it in our complex world.
Chris Britton is an energetic, thoughtful and authentic speaker who expertly blends a deep care for the people working in your organisations with the commercial performance of the business itself. He brings insight, joy and curiosity to his audiences and encourages transformation of thought whilst leaving people with real and proven techniques to go and make a difference in their lives.
Seeing people for who they are, not just what they do is a proven way to boost productivity by as much as 43%. Â Commercial performance? As much as 7%. Â Appreciation drives business success.
High performing teams are created by design. Being intentional with what you are trying to achieve it crucial. Unlock individual and team performance.
The need to belong is powerful. As many as 1 in 4 workers frequently experience loneliness in the workplace. We are social creatures and feeling connected is key to positive behaviour.
Traditional wellbeing has run its course. We are too wonderfully complex as a human race for one size to fit all. Equity over equality is vital to building a resilient workforce.
The world is a difficult place to be. Our ability to cope gets chipped away every day and it is easy for us to feel overwhelmed on a regular basis. Our self worth needs strengthening.
Men’s health is on the decline. Suicide rates are up. Education standards are down. Life expectancy is falling. Addiction is rising. Isolation is growing. Men need our help.
I wholeheartedly recommend Chris Britton as a speaker. If you’re seeking someone who can inspire, challenge perspectives, and leave a lasting impact, Chris is the one to turn to. His message about the power of appreciation was not only timely but transformative.
Chris is an exceptional public speaker who never fails to captivate his audience. His deep knowledge of HR and passion for people always shines through. Chris has a knack of making the complex simple and the audience always walks away inspired to make positive changes. I wholeheartedly recommend Chris for your event.
