By background I am an engineer, by training I am an Army Officer and gradually I am becoming an academic.
I have a degree from the University of Surrey in Civil Engineering and on graduating joined the Royal Engineers. I served for 20 years all over Europe and North America, retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel having commanded a Bomb Disposal regiment.
Whilst in command I took an MA in Management at the Canterbury (now Kent) Business School and on leaving the army set up and ran my own interim management business.
I ran that company for 10 years during which time I was also the Chairman of the Interim Management Association. I closed that company down in order to complete my book on interim management and to finish my D Prof with Middlesex University.
