About George

George has been a trainer for 34 years. He learned his craft when he started as a delegate on the Dale Carnegie Course in 1990. The Dale Carnegie program took him so far that he became a trainer for the business. His whole journey lasted 14 years.

He took the “Trainer training” in 1992 in Cape Town with two of Dale Carnegie’s most experienced “Master Trainers”, David Scruggs (US) and Alan Kershaw (UK). He collaborated with Dale Carnegie Training until March 2004 and stopped only because he came to live in the UK.

In the UK, George has continued to work in education and training and has been a senior lecturer for various University Business Schools, including Wrexham and Falmouth.

He has collaborated with the TSW Training team since 2011 and has delivered many of our courses. These include leadership, management, communications, sales, customer service, emotional intelligence, time management, presentations, public speaking, and “Train-the-Trainer.”
