Jim Ewan - Articles

 (94)

Jim Ewan has been involved in management since the late 1960’s. He has worked with and for many blue-chip organisations including Fujitsu, Sony, Brook-Bond Oxo, Rolls Royce and the European Space Research Organisation. As consultant, marketing manager and company director he has done most of the jobs a manager can be called upon to do - and more! By his own admission he has made most of the mistakes that can be made as well. In a varied career that has encompassed taxi driving, computers, photography, microfilm and insurance he has discovered what it takes to succeed. Jim has set up and trained sales teams and has been running open training courses for many years. Organisations attending have included AA, DTI, Smith Kline Beecham, Brann International and Intel Systems. A founder member and past president of the Professional Speakers Association and finalist in Toastmasters International Humorous Speaking Contests, Jim is also a gold medal speaker and holds the prestigious LAMDA Diploma for public speaking. Jim’s training specialisation was presentations and public speaking where he focused on taking the frankly terrified, giving them the confidence to speak to large and small audiences. He now writes and speaks on management, marketing and motivation. He also consults on success at exhibitions and trade shows, having discovered that most organisations are very bad at this facet of marketing, indeed repeating over and over the mistakes he was making more than thirty years ago! His after dinner material concentrates on his fear of flying and the battle of the sexes.
