He is 51 years old, has been married for nearly 28 years and has 3 children. Steve spent 34 years in retail and retail logistics, both in the UK and in South Africa.

He specialised in supply chain management, getting a BSc from Cranfield University and the Institute of Logistics in 1996. He was awarded the Student of the Year award, collecting this from Princess Anne at a ceremony in London.

During his time in these fields he was passionate about developing people and helping them reach their full potential. However, after such a long time in the same profession, Steve decided to rest his ladder against a different wall and qualified as a Life, Business and Executive Coach. Having had a previous association with Alan Chatting and a shared interest in helping others they decided to create CSP Coaching. Steve specialises in helping clients overcome mental health problems, such as depression and anxiety, using a combination of coaching techniques and NLP. He is a certified Master Practitioner of NLP.

As well as being a coach, Steve is currently a voluntary Chairman for the Youth Offending Team, helping young first time offenders stop re-offending.

He is also a mentor for the Government appointed agency A4e, which helps long term unemployed people get back to work.
