Mastering the art of communication helps leaders and managers create a bright future of work.
Hi, and welcome. My name is Rob Lambert.
I'm a Leadership and Management Communication Consultant, based in Winchester, UK.
"The future belongs to those who can communicate about it"
Communication Consultant
I know that by mastering the art of communication, Leaders and Managers can create high-performing companies that are fit for today, and also fit for the future.
My award-winning flagship communication Superpower workshop, delivered over 170 times, is just one way I help leaders and managers shape the future they envision.
I help you move smoothly & quickly towards your ambitious future, whilst cultivating a positive workplace that enriches the lives of all who work in it.
I call this releasing business agility:
Envision and communicate a bright future. Understand what's stopping you from achieving it. Build the "team to get it done". Focus on habits and routines. Learn.
My services include consultancy, coaching, workshops, seminars and energising talks.
Curator and Writer
I share everything I know to help individuals develop and grow their business and communication skills. I cover the topics of communication, creativity, wellbeing and learning through various mediums.
The Meeting Notes newsletter. The "Here's an idea worth playing with" podcast. The Creative Soul Projects YouTube channel. Books and resources in the Store. Articles on this site.
Teacher and Trainer
Teaching has been at the heart of all of my career - isn't that what a leader should do - teach others?
The award-winning Communication Skills workshop is available online now. I have a new book coming out about how to run award-winning workshops. I also teach people how to do public speaking in my latest book Zero To Keynote.
There are lots of other books and resources in the store.
“In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.”
About Rob and Cultivated Management
Founded in 2017 my background as a Media Scientist and experienced business leader, led me to the realisation that nearly every business challenge stems from ineffective communication.
I've served as Vice President of Software Engineering (twice), Vice President of HR, Head of communications and Head of Business Agility.
This background in Internal PR, media production, journalism, leadership, management, agility, HR and corporate communications equips me to break down complex ideas and connect with diverse audiences across various platforms, making communication my ultimate business tool.
A veteran of the startup world, I've worked with enterprise organisations seeking to enhance business agility (move smoothly and quickly) and startups looking to scale without losing their fast-paced, action-oriented culture.
At Cultivated Management, I fuse my passion for communication science with strong business acumen to help organisations move smoothly and quickly towards their goals, and cultivate a positive workplace too.
I've been helping technology leaders in Telco, Tech, Mobile, Oil and Gas, Energy, Professional Services, HR and Finance for over 10 years now.
