Speaker
Mark has been based in the UAE since 2008, originally from London, England he has always focused on adapting to the culture of the Middle East.
Understanding everything is based around relationships, this has led to success throughout Mark’s career.
Mark see’s himself as the Conductor of the event, the audience, the event organizers, the panelists and speakers are the orchestra and it is Mark’s job to keep everything in time whilst creating an unforgettable experience.
To moderate an event there are 3 objectives, keeping the event organizer happy, the audience happy and the speakers happy. Many times this can be conflicting but with Mark’s prior efforts to ensure everyone knows their responsibilities and speaking with each person, there is a level of calmness, they know they are in good hands.

Keynote Title:
Be of Value or Be Forgotten
How to Sell with Purpose, Lead Better Conversations & Win Business by Putting the Client First
Selling today isn’t about talking louder — it’s about listening better.
It’s not about pitching harder — it’s about understanding deeper.
And the future of sales belongs to those who can create real value for their clients — not just deliver information, but lead conversations that drive outcomes.
In this keynote, I share what I’ve learned from 20+ years in sales — working across industries, closing deals, coaching teams, and building client relationships that last.
Audiences will leave with a practical mindset shift:
- If you want better results, be better for your client.
What I Cover:
Outcome-Based Selling
→ Stop pitching products. Start positioning solutions around the results your client actually cares about.
Consultative Conversations that Convert
→ Lead with curiosity. Ask better questions. Understand the real problem before offering the answer.
Value-Led Discovery
→ Research better. Prepare smarter. Be the person in the room who knows their world — not just your own.
Objection Handling with Integrity
→ Handle resistance early — not because you’re trying to close fast, but because clarity creates trust.
From Transactional to Trusted
→ The biggest win isn’t the sale — it’s becoming the person your client wants to work with again.
Why This Keynote Works:
This isn’t theory.
It’s not what I think works.
It’s what I’ve seen work in the real world — with real people, real deals, and real pressure.
It’s for sales teams, leaders, and client-facing professionals who want to walk away thinking:
“That’s exactly what I needed to hear — and I know what to do next.”
