Professional yachtsman and motivational speaker

Conrad Humphreys is a professional yachtsman and motivational speaker with a sailing career spanning three round the world races. He competed as the youngest entrant in the Whitbread Round the World Yacht Race (now Volvo Ocean Race).

As skipper, he led his team to victory in the BT Global Challenge, and became the fifth British yachtsman in history to complete the legendary Vendée Globe: sailing single-handed, non-stop around the world without assistance.

Conrad has spoken for many of the world’s leading companies and specialises in designing innovative leadership programmes for executive teams. Most recently, he was the professional skipper on board the tiny 23ft open boat Bounty’s End in the recreation of Captain Bligh’s epic story of survival, Mutiny on the Bounty, for Channel 4.
