Malcolm kicks things off with live handwriting analysis of 5–6 participants — a fast, fun icebreaker that instantly energises the room and reveals how different people really are… and why those differences can become a powerful advantage when aligned to a unifying goal.
This is not a sit-on-your-bum keynote — it’s an interactive, experiential experience. Participants don’t just listen; they engage, reflect, and take home practical tools they can apply immediately. (Workbook included for sessions over 90 minutes.)
