Adversity Makes Us.
There are two approaches to life – you can be a fighter or you can be a victim. We all have a choice. The fighter takes responsibility. The victim seeks excuses. The fighter embraces discomfort. The victim judges. The fighter loves the game. The victim loves the sideshow. The fighter seeks friends that challenge. The victim chooses friends that make excuses for them. If you’ve been wronged, mistreated, if you feel life is unfair. You still have a choice in how you respond. You can live in resentment, excuse and judgement. Or you can change your story. You can fight. You can take responsibility. Every single one of speakers embodies the fighter. The boy born with glaucoma who went on to score more goals than Kane, Rooney, Charlton and Lineker. The girl who was told she might have a stroke during brain surgery, did, had to learn to walk again, and then signed for London Bees 6 months later. The young lad hit by a dangerous driver who robbed him of his legs and now runs marathons and spends his time trying to save lives on the road. The boy with dwarfism that didn’t realise that there was anyone else like him growing up until he turned up at the Dwarf Sports Association and then went on to become a world champion. The girl who was the victim of the worst thing that can happen online but refused to live as a victim and has campaigned on the biggest stages. Our incredible group of speakers are tough yet kind, human but inspirational, wise but still learning and are all connected by a desire and purpose to make the world a better place, one action at a time. All of our speakers have appeared on large platforms, in the media and have delivered to audiences from 9 year old boys and girls to Premier League and WSL first team squads and elite boardrooms. We are able to design an ongoing programme, monthly, bimonthly, online or (preferably) offline and in person, or we can design a day or weekend to embolden, inspire and work on some of the very modern challenges we have as people, as workforces, and as societies.
"We've worked with [B5 Consultancy] for 12 years now, helping our players to develop a risk averse culture. That relationship has been invaluable to us and has equipped both players who have gone on to be established stars and those who have gone on to different careers"​
