Richard McCann

1515 - 1600: English Partnership Suite

Richard McCann is a Sunday Times No1 Bestselling author.  His first book, ‘Just a Boy’, has sold close to 400,000 copies and has been translated around the world. The BBC has made a film about him and he has an extraordinary life story. 

Brought up on the ‘At Risk’ register until his mother died tragically when he was aged five, Richard then went on a downward spiral.  Foster homes, children's home and then a violent upbringing by his estranged father took away any self esteem that he had. 

He left school with no qualifications and was kicked out of the army for psychological reasons before he turned to drugs to ease his depression.  After a prison sentence for a drugs offence, and with his home about to be re-possessed, Richard hit rock bottom where he considered taking his life. 

It was at this point that he found the gut wrenching determination to turn his life around and fight for a better future.  That turnaround has been remarkable. 

Now married with a family of his own, two books about his life being published, and a much sought after inspirational speaker, Richard puts a lot of his success down to his attitude, his 'iCan' attitude. 

His presentation centres on the way in which he has turned, what can only be described as insurmountable odds, to his favour and has shaped a more positive life for himself.  It’s one that most people don’t forget in a hurry.



We’ll leave it to one of Yorkshire’s business leaders to explain why you should come and see Richard McCann:

I can guarantee that after a presentation from Richard McCann you will leave more determined to succeed in business and life than ever before. If he can overcome the trial and tribulations that life has thrown at him, then your problems will pale into insignificance and you will realise that you can overcome almost any obstacle which you face in business and life. His presentation is both motivational and inspirational, and I would recommend it to anybody in business.
