Disrupt the narrative with a practical and inspiring session with a "future of work playbook" of stories, tools and techniques delivered virtually or in-person with passion & a touch of rock'n'roll

We are creatures of habit, and Scott McArthur's mission is to help us break those habits; especially ones not beneficial to our progress. Originally from Lanark, Scotland, Scott started his career path by breaking the very habits that should have defined him. Rather than be swept up in a predictable future, Scott decided to prove the statistics and his school career advisor wrong and went on to study biology and psychology at University. Today, he delivers keynote speeches on the human condition, guiding audiences on how to make better decisions, have better conversations, and reframe beliefs and opinions.

With a myriad of experiences, Scott's background provides him with a deep well of content, upon which he draws, allowing him to connect with his audience in a manner quite unlike other traditional audience experiences. Rather than approaching a talk with a list of bullet points, Scott's aim is to teach his listeners to rethink approaches, so that they can walk away with effective tools and techniques to use in their personal and work lives.

"Scott brings a huge amount of creativity & passion to his speaking engagements. He provides deep, expert insight into employee engagement & communication. [He is not] afraid to challenge his audiences to achieve superior results." Ursula Morgenstern CEO Atos (Germany)

Having worked as a rock musical producer, TEDx speaker, business consultant, HR director, vlogger and research scientist, Scott's experience is rich, and his delivery style refreshing and transformative. He became the 'go-to' speaker for keynote speeches at events, workshops and virtually whilst working for top organisations such as the Ministry of Defence, M&S and the UK Olympic Authority. Today, Scott and his partner, Samantha Barklam, run Sculpture Consulting Ltd, working with a diverse range of clients such as Atos, Superdry, SwissRe, Deloitte, Specsavers, Capgemini and the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.

Scott is published in a variety of disciplines including leadership development, disease detection, personal and business transformation, mindfulness, pioneering microscopy techniques, rock music, and human resources. He focuses his keynote programmes on inspiring his audiences to change from the inside out; what he calls the "inner work" of relationships, organisations and cultures.

Learn how to create the future of work you desire for your organisation, with Scott's well-crafted and inspiring programmes.

Why facts don't change people

We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies."
