Tim Bradshaw, a former British Army Intelligence Officer and graduate of the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, has extensive experience in covert operations and intelligence. As a Covert Human Intelligence Officer and Target Acquisition Patrol Soldier, he recruited and managed foreign agents globally, influencing critical and dangerous situations.
Tim's expertise in handling pressure, making effective decisions, and building resilience underpins his work with clients and audiences worldwide. His recent clients include Mercedes-Benz, Deloitte, Knight Frank, Clyde & Co, St James’s Place, and Jaguar Land Rover.
After leaving the British Army, Tim founded Sandstone Communications, an international leadership and team-building consultancy, where he serves as a director. In response to the crisis in Ukraine, Tim has led a team that delivered over 15,000 meals, 500 sleeping bags, and 300 trauma kits to war-zone volunteers. In 2022, he travelled throughout Ukraine to teach trauma first aid and train volunteers to use these skills in high-stress situations.
Have you ever felt paralysed at the thought of making a decision or breathless at the consequence of getting a decision wrong? Tim shares the tricks and training British Army Intelligence Officers use to make decisions under pressure when the consequences could be the difference between life and death.
You are about to meet a dangerous stranger and need to win their trust and influence their behaviour. Get it right, you dictate the outcome of the meeting and obtain the critical information you need. Get it wrong, they may kill you. Tim exposes the techniques used to build rapport, reassurance and trust and how this translates into corporate life and creates an environment where people and teams can thrive and develop.
Imagine performing mental agility tests, having been kept awake for two days, or being asked to go for a run with no end in sight. Selection to be a Covert Intelligence Officer is designed to test your mental and physical resilience to a level few can imagine. Tim explores and teaches the secrets of how to build resilience, along with the tricks that enable individuals to keep going when all seems lost.
Working in intelligence, if there is no change in circumstances or values there is no opportunity. As an Intelligence Officer, Tim actively sought and created changing circumstances, and explains how rather than fearing change, it should be welcomed (by teams and individuals) as an opportunity to adapt, enhance and gain a competitive advantage.
