Top sports psychologist and coach Dr Steve Bull, who worked with Team GB in three Olympic Games and the England cricket team for 17 years, is keynote speaker at an event to help Wiltshire businesses realise their expansion plans.
The third in the Enterprise Series staged by The Enterprise Network, Swindon and Wiltshire, the free event on April 2 will explore the factors that can influence the speed of business growth. 
Included will be advice on how to manage the opportunities and challenges of a fast-growing business. Dr Bull, pictured, will draw on his own experience gained during a 30-year career working with elite athletes and sports professionals as well as CEOs, NATO officers, professional actors and university academics.
Having served as GB team headquarters psychologist at three Olympic Games and working with the England cricket team as team psychologist, leadership coach and change management consultant, he can provide real insight into the mind-set needed for success.
He has also written eight books, the latest of which is best seller The Game Plan: Your guide to mental toughness at work.
The full-day event takes place at Manor House Enterprise Centre in Royal Wootton Bassett but individuals unable to attend can see the presentation via a real-time stream direct to the Enterprise Centres in Trowbridge, Ludgershall and Salisbury, where there will be opportunities to join in an interactive Q&A session.
There will also be pre-bookable, one-to-one appointments with business experts offering free, impartial advice on all aspects of growing a new or established business, ranging from acquisitions and mergers, to people management and from intellectual property to tax relief.
