Motivational Speaking


Hiring Mike Dawson to speak at your event will give your team a great night’s entertainment, but will also help them think about change, personal growth and overcoming diversity.

Mike knows that we have to embrace change, not be afraid of it. His personal journey has taken him from being a confirmed MS diagnosis in 2005 and the associated loss of strength in his legs, to learning how to ride a handcycle, to swimming across the channel. Mike’s story is powerful and emotional, and the audience will experience that emotion with him.

He will talk to the room about how being prepared to take on a challenge isn’t enough – true fulfilment comes from seeking out a new challenge. This helps to inspire people to have the aspiration to try, fail and try again. Because as Mike always says: “If you’ve never failed, then you’ve never truly challenged yourself.”

So why should you hire Mike?

  • A great night’s entertainment from a professional, personable and engaging speaker
  • Interesting talking points for the rest of the event, and to take back into the workplace
  • Extensive experience as a business owner
  • Doesn’t just show up on time and deliver the speech – Mike arrives when you need him to, participating in the event and mingling as appropriate for your needs. As a business owner he knows the importance of engagements being kept, and how crucial it is that events run seamlessly.
