Steve McNicholas

Keynote speaker Steve McNicholas, two times best-selling author and creator of the SUCCESS Code®, is considered to be a leading authority on what it takes to achieve ‘success’ in business, in leadership as well as in life and just as importantly, how to sustain it!

After a 30 year career in the corporate world, Steve followed his passion to help individuals, teams and organisations understand and then apply the unique and proprietary SUCCESS Code® strategies to drive sustained success and achievement professionally and personally.

His keynotes offer an inspiring and yet practical set of insights and tools that the audience can understand and apply quickly to make a difference.

Why Steve?

• He has led successful teams and businesses across several industries and geographies and will honestly admit to having the bumps and bruises that comes from leading teams to win and succeed. He feels you just have to have a few scars to prove you’ve been through the battles!

• For well over a decade, Steve has sought to speak to hundreds of ‘successful’ individuals across several countries, sectors and different backgrounds. In a deeply personal quest to explore what, how and why success happens for individuals, he began to notice a pattern, a sequence, a ‘code’ that was consistent in all. This insight formed the basis for both of his books on the subject and led him to follow this passion to inform and inspire others to ‘unlock the Code’ for themselves, their teams or their organisations.

• In researching for his books, Steve also began to understand his own journey to success. From a failed education to running a major UK banking network! From financial despair during the banking crisis of 2008 to best-selling author and international speaker! Steve knows the power and impact of the SUCCESS Code® and is now inspiring and engaging audiences internationally with such insight.

Before he became one of the UK’s leading motivational speakers, Steve McNicholas has led several successful teams and businesses across the globe before deciding to step away from corporate life to pursue his lifelong passion in understanding and capturing the ‘secrets’ to professional and personal success.

His first book, Recipe for Success, was co-authored with New York Times best-selling author Jack Canfield and reached best-seller status upon release. Steve later published his follow-up book in 2019, Unlock the SUCCESS Code® – 7 Steps to Succeed in Life and Work. The book has already achieved best-seller status on both Amazon UK and Amazon US.

Steve is presently retained to advise several businesses on the commercial and people challenges they face and is coaching and mentoring the management teams to succeed against such issues.

Steve has been invited to Harvard Business School to share and develop his expertise on how to maintain success/excellence in any organisation and he has a reputation for being funny, personable, and just ridiculously easy to work with!
