Because I Can

From special duties selection to an earthquake on the side of Mount Everest, from a gunfight in Afghanistan to a year of endurance challenges, Tim Bradshaw has had to develop a robust toolkit and mindset to enable him to overcome serious challenges in hostile circumstances.

What’s remarkable is that he achieved these feats in the face of imposter syndrome and depression. Tim’s mantra is ‘Because I can’, because whatever you’re facing, you can do so much more than you think. This is a toolkit to help you take on any challenge. Whether you’re making an attempt on Everest or taking the next big career step this toolkit will make you more effective.

Tim attended the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst aged just 19. His first job was to lead 37 soldiers. Since then, he has served as a surveillance and target acquisition patrol soldier and covert human intelligence officer. In 2015 he attempted to climb Mount Everest to persuade mental health sufferers to ask for help. After a year of physical endurance challenges, he is now a Director of Sandstone Communications, an international leadership and team building consultancy.

Timothy Bradshaw has never won the Olympics or sold a multimillion-dollar business. He went to a reasonable school and attended the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Since then, he has served as a covert human intelligence officer, attempted to climb Mount Everest, summited the Matterhorn, completed a 70.3 ironman, cycled L’Etape du Tour, raced downhill on skis, ridden the Cresta Run and set up an international business training consultancy, all #BecauseICan.

As a director of Sandstone Communications Tim delivers keynote speaking and leadership training in over 14 different countries and to a global audience in excess of 5000 people annually. He has been listed as a leadership influencer by Linked In and LETG (Legal, Education and Training Group). His client base includes major global brands such as Knight Frank, Mercedes-Benz Middle East, Gateley PLC and Jaguar Land Rover. He has contributed to global in-house leadership development for Daimler Global and Gateley Plc.

He also sponsors aspiring young people striving to achieve their dreams, with 10% of all #BecauseICan profits going towards the cause.'
