Peter Boyd

Peter has an innovative and highly practical take on the concept of time and productivity, drawing from the focus of his start-up company, as well as over ten years in senior positions at the Virgin Group, global NGOs and government, and latterly advising CEOs of growth companies.

He describes time as one of the biggest market failures in society. He covers two common frameworks to approaching time and workplace productivity, and shows how we can create an overarching framework to yield genuinely actionable insights that can help Leaders prioritize their time. It can extend to how Leaders engage with the outside world and their social media presence; as well as optimize the allocation of time across their organization. If interested, please speak to one of our consultants, and Peter as appropriate, to assess the specific fit with your audience.

To the extent it is interesting or useful to the event, Peter can also introduce his newly-built platform Time4Good.net. Time4Good talks could take the form of a one-way informative speaking engagement, but also evolve to more interactive workshops to ensure the executives yield the most benefit.

Specific output could include a guaranteed One-Page Master To-Do List for every executive, and a suggested method to synchronize this initiative across their team.

Peter has been working on, and talking about, the economic, social and environmental opportunities of solving climate change since 2009.

Whether it is addressing ship-owners in Greece, solar executives in Canada, or a cross-sector audience in Singapore, his emphasis is always on getting across a compelling and tailored message to the audience, that they can feel positive and change their to-do list when they get back to work. Example flow:

• Climate Change is important, is part of a larger system of changes we’ve created as a world, and affects us all – including those in the room
• There are profound changes that have taken place in the last 12-18 months – critical sparks for action include the UN’s adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals and the creation of the Paris Agreement at the UNFCCC climate talks COP21.
• There are huge opportunities – both economy-wide and sector-specific – for the audience in the room to profoundly affect their job over the coming months and years. It’s time to take advantage.Peter brings high energy and assumes no prior knowledge in the subject of climate change. He brings a wealth of solution examples from working with the Shipping Industry and Island governments at the Carbon War Room; to accelerating green student start-ups at Yale University’s Center for Business & The Environment at Yale University. He has observed international climate negotiations in Copenhagen, Durban, Cancun, Paris and Marrakech.Peter can liaise with the organizers pre-event to create a tailored message to create the biggest change from the audience in the room – whether it is a clean-tech audience, broader business, the ngo world, or community and faith-based organizations.
