Sean is an ex-Royal Marine Commando and record breaking polar explorer with over two decades experience of survival training and performance at the highest level.
Leaving school at seventeen Sean joined the elite Royal Marines, successfully completing commando training, the longest and toughest training course in the world. Sean soon displayed a natural talent for leadership and was swiftly promoted through the rank and file, receiving a commission into the Officer Corps. During Sean’s extensive career he has deployed on active service across the globe becoming a specialist in mountain, Arctic and desert operations.
Parallel to his military career Sean has forged a record breaking expedition career becoming a pioneering figure in pushing the envelope of military expedition achievements and setting world records in the process.
In 2006/07 he planned and lead the first UK Armed Forces expedition to the South Pole since Captain Scott. Despite dislocating his shoulder during the expedition he continued to lead his team on their grueling 1400-mile, 71-day journey, completing the longest military Antarctic expedition.
Sean has completed over twenty high risk and remote expeditions. These have included the first winter crossing of Iceland, an attempt to walk to the North Pole, and a successful journey to the magnetic North Pole to retrace the steps of the first overland Arctic journey by the Navy.
Sean draws on his extensive expedition experience to deliver powerful presentations that gets to the heart of effective team leadership.
