Steve Bishop

About the Author

From his earliest memories, Steve Bishop was brought up

in a sleepy Cotswold village, where a number of houses did

not even have electricity in the 1960s, and the pace of life

was slower than a snail. He went on to live in some of the UKs

largest and vibrant cities including long stints of working in London. As

a result, he has a very good understanding of both the urban

environment and the countryside.

He spent a life time career in consultancy for over 40

years, working with some of the world’s largest companies,

both in the board room and on the shop floor, dealing with

many difficult and politically incorrect clients.

He has travelled the world to over 60 countries, mainly

as an independent traveler, including some very remote

places and some of the world’s most beautiful cities. But

also, some of the largest and most polluted, getting out on

the street seeing how different cultures and people operate

and some of the things they get up to.

From his early years, he has always had an inquisitive

and observant mind of knowing what is going on around

him, from the local village politics and the pariahs on the

parish council to international corporate board rooms and

challenging delivery of complex IT programmes. His no

nonsense approach and questioning people and the

necessity of breaking some of the rules has served him in good stead

of knowing WHY? and what to ignore in getting the best

out of people and getting things done
