 CLIVE
COLEMAN
 AFTER
DINNER SPEAKER
As a barrister,
broadcaster
and one of
the country’s
top comedy
writers, Clive
has the unique
ability to
write and
deliver hilarious
material on
just about
any subject.
His years
in court,
working to
a brief, combined
with his skill
in writing
topical comedy
to tight deadlines
for some of
the country’s
best known
television
and radio
comedy shows,
allow Clive
to specifically
tailor his
material to
the needs
of the company
or organisation
he’s
speaking to.
Clive has
delivered
after dinner
speeches to
an array of
UK based and
multi-national
companies,
trade and
professional
bodies. As
a conference
host and link
presenter,
he has hosted
numerous awards
ceremonies
where his
combination
of performing
and writing
skills have
enabled him
to write and
deliver tailored
‘industry
specific’
links that
keep the pace
up and the
focus sharp
and witty.
Clive has
co-hosted
events and
awards ceremonies
with celebrities
including
Joanna Lumley
and Graham
Norton, as
well as writing
the scripts
for awards
ceremonies
hosted by
the likes
of Jonathan
Ross.
In May 2004
Clive took
up the role
of presenter
of BBC Radio
4’s
flagship legal
analysis programme,
‘Law
In Action’.
MOTIVATOR
For nine years,
Clive was
Senior and
then Principal
Lecturer at
the Inns of
Court School
of Law, where
he helped
pioneer ‘skills
training’
for barristers.
He has lectured
widely and
written on
advocacy,
communication
and the art
of persuasion.
This experience
has enabled
Clive to successfully
apply a variety
of inter-active
educational
methods, including
the training
techniques
of the courtroom,
to meeting
the demands
of selling,
motivation
and persuasion
in business.
Clive’s
years teaching
young lawyers
how to present
cases and
argument in
court has
given him
a unique insight
into the components
necessary
to put together
a coherent
and convincing
presentation.
He says ‘Persuasive
presentation
relies significantly
upon the level
of self-confidence
an individual
has of him
or herself.
If you expect,
or even half
expect to
sound halting
and timid,
you will.
But with a
modicum of
ability, the
application
of some tried
and trusted
techniques,
and some supervised
practice,
you can rapidly
build the
level of self-confidence
you have of
yourself.
You can persuade.’.
