Expert High-Stakes, Small, and Large Meeting Facilitation
No matter why you are holding a small or large meeting that includes genuine discussion and dialogue, it often pays to bring in a well-briefed, experienced external facilitator like Roy to keep everyone focused and moving forward towards a common goal. When the stakes are high – Roy can be trusted to deliver. For those meetings where there’s an ‘elephant in the room’ that needs ‘managing’.
So, if you have a meeting or conference which may (or should) include some ‘difficult’ conversations, but you or your senior team are afraid to address them, Roy can help you. And then guide everyone during the event. Roy has worked on conferences and meetings that were highly-charged – such as mass redundancies, hostile mergers and other ‘bad news’ scenarios.
Roy Sheppard has also facilitated countless ‘deep-dive’ corporate, not-for-profit, public-sector and medical advisory boards.

High-Stakes Advisory Boards for Small, Senior Executive Groups
Roy has many years’ experience chairing complex medical and technology advisory boards for global corporations.
“I have met, and experienced, Roy on numerous occasions over the years. He has moderated our HP Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) NonStop Customer Council, a gathering of C-Level executives of our most important HP NonStop EMEA Customers, where Roy was the facilitator. This meeting serves as an important evaluation of hte business relationship HP NonStop has with these customers; positive as well as negative, and always highly sensitive information gets discussed at this, at times, highly charged meeting.
Roy’s role as facilitator requires him to be sensitive to the issues being presented, add himself in when the meeting is heading into a dead-end, and equally important, he knows when to be quiet and let things flow.
His personality and professionalism put the organisers at ease, and creates excitement in, and for, the audience, wondering what he will do or say next!” – Mike Hurst, Director, Global Field Marketing/Business Development, HP
