Speaker, Contributor, Priest
I confer, convene and commentate on integrity in public life.
That means integrity in politics, business and the media.
Integrity is invariably claimed, but seldom understood. Think of it in engineering terms – the integrity of a building’s structure or of an airframe. Only as strong as its weakest component.
Your organisation is like that. A weak component can bring it crashing down. It’s a vital management task to ensure that every part is strong enough to support the whole – that the whole structure has integrity.
If you want to know how to do that, call me. For decades, I have worked in public affairs, business and the media. Some career highlights:
- Award-winning Industrial Editor, The Observer
- Religion Editor, columnist and leader writer, The Daily Telegraph
- Co-founder, CEO and partner of innovative communications consultancy Luther Pendragon
- Secretary for Public Affairs to Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams
- Global digital news platform Editor-in-Chief
- Visiting Fellow at the London School of Economics, Dept of Media and Communications
- Anglican priest, St Bride’s Church Fleet Street and Diocese of Chichester
- Regular contributor to BBC Radio 2’s Pause for Thought
- Author of novel A Dark Nativity (2017), A Time to Live: The Case Against Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide (2010), The Death of Spin (2003) and The Public Faced (1989)
Not all of this was conducted with the highest levels of integrity, admittedly. That’s why I know what I’m talking about. If I can share that knowledge and experience, let me know.
Change the way the world works.
