some of the most fundamental changes in the media from his first days
in ITV, through the first days of 24 hour news, to today's
multimedia platforms. As an after dinner speaker his wealth of
experience is unparalleled and he can entertain and inform about

and bust.

He then returned to Sky as Business and Economics Editor in 1995,
and launched Sky Business Report, the news channel’s then daily

reporting through both boom and bust. He has also written for
national newspapers and his reports have been taken and watched
worldwide.
As well as his record breaking run as a broadcast Business Editor,
Michael has a long pedigree in news, business and current affairs.
Before Sky, he was a reporter and presenter on Thames TV’s flagship
This Week and in 1987; he helped found
Thames’
award-winning The City Programme, where he worked as a reporter and
main presenter. In the 1990s, he also presented London News Radio’s
Breakfast Show and
helped
launch Reuters Financial Television. In 2006 he was named Broadcast
Business Journalist of the Year.
He was made a Freeman of the City of London in 2005. He has lectured
in Europe and internationally from the collapse of the Berlin Wall
and the introduction of the single currency, through to the current
economic crisis, the future shape of the financial services and
banking industry. He has also been published by the British
Journalism Review.

mentor for their media training, coaching and consultancy and also
