We achieve this by challenging assumptions, breaking mindsets, and transforming attitudes. We provide a truly international service: Over 50 per cent of our recent assignments have been in countries outside the UK, including the USA, Canada, Denmark, Switzerland, Germany, and France.

Service Legends is a vehicle for Nigel Barlow’s speaking, consulting, and business writing.

Service Legends also manages project teams of specialists - in Branding, Organisational Change, and Innovation, for instance - enabling you to transform both your internal culture and what you offer to clients.

 

"Nigel is an agent provocateur. With wit and humour his telling messages get home."

Steve Walker, Human Resources Director, SKF

Nigel is a passionate, witty, and dynamic presenter, even fool-hardy enough to favour the after-lunch spot at conferences.

"Thank you for a truly wonderful presentation. Nigel managed to turn the traditional after lunch graveyard spot into the highlight of the conference. Delegates were buzzing with excitement and enthusiasm after the presentation and this was reflected in a 91 per cent ‘Excellent’ rating given to Nigel by several hundred attendees."

"We‘re not competing on price – we want to differentiate through excellence in service!"

How often have you heard this, or said something like it yourself? And yet how many businesses have appreciated that in order to differentiate you need to be different? Service Legends is delighted to offer a way of tackling this issue.

"Nigel's presentation to our top 100 European executives was a contribution of wit and very relevant business observations, thus reinforcing the key message of our meeting. It was a good way of ending the first day lightheartedly in style, but authoritatively in content. Definitely preferable to after dinner speakers."

Colin Brown, Group Director
Conference on Organisational Change, for Reckitt & Colman Europe
