Nick Wealthall is an expert in unlocking the commercial potential for leaders and teams, transforming attitudes and behaviours by reframing mindsets, building resilience, and driving growth ideas into action. His unique professional poker and TV presentation background informs his dynamic approach to projects and talks.
After graduating from Cambridge, Nick began his career in sales, quickly rising through the ranks before being headhunted to work with high-net-worth clients in wealth management. During this time, his passion for poker grew, and he moved to Las Vegas to play professionally, sharpening decision-making skills that would later define his business approach.
Returning to England, Nick pursued broadcasting, working as a comedy writer and presenter on shows like "8 Out of 10 Cats" and "Have I Got News For You". He also hosted and commented on major Sky and Channel 4 poker events.
Nick returned to sales and training, launching an online poker training business with less than £1,000. Over nine years, he grew Transform My Poker into the UK’s leading poker training company, with thousands of customers across 60 countries and sales exceeding £2 million.
Now, Nick focuses on helping corporates and SMEs unlock their commercial potential through consultancy and development programs, sharing the lessons he's learned in poker, business, and working with top clients. His mission is to help others see commercial growth as a rewarding challenge, not an intimidating task, to allow individuals and businesses to fulfil their potential.
He’s trusted to do this and has a track record of results with major organisations including WTW, Savills, Lockton Insurance, the RFU and many more.
Topics, sessions and talks
Many teams struggle with passive approaches to business growth and lack the entrepreneurial mindset needed to drive revenue. Nick Wealthall unpacks how teams can unlock new opportunities and achieve greater success with less stress by adopting counterintuitive strategies and learning to view challenges through a client’s perspective. Attendees will leave energised, equipped with proactive techniques, and confident in pursuing bigger deals, fostering a mindset of resilience and enthusiasm for future commercial success.
Leaders trying to align their team's culture to ambitious commercial goals often see a gap between strategy and execution. Leaders can close this gap and drive real commercial transformation by adopting leadership practices that empower teams to create opportunities proactively. Attendees will be inspired and equipped with practical strategies to foster a more inclusive, proactive culture where everyone contributes toward shared goals.
Commercial teams often face frequent rejection and market challenges, which can hinder growth and opportunities.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
