About
Sean Weafer.
Welcome to my website and thanks for visiting.
I love transforming revenue leaders, business owners and technical experts (finance, tech, compliance etc.), into influential, impactful and high performance professionals. Why? So that they can deploy their knowledge even more effectively and be recognised, rewarded and respected for the value they bring to their businesses.
I have a wealth of international leadership, sales and business experience and insights to draw on for you.
Over the last two decades I've worked with leaders and sales teams in some of the world's top companies including Indeed.com, The Financial Times, Bank of Ireland, University of Manchester, Microsoft, Dell Technologies, KCI Medical, DB Schenker, BT, Elavon Bank, Grant Thornton and others.
I'm an engineer by profession so I love to provide simple, clear explanations and practical steps to complex concepts like communications, leadership and business development in the post-Covid.
Together with Dr. Denis Waitley (the renowned American speaker, author and behavioural psychologist, friend and mentor) I designed the Global to Specific (G2S) communications and performance coaching system.
I'm also the creator of the successful High Trust Advisor Sales Program, a Marshall Goldsmith certified leadership coach, author of three books, award winning professional speaker, psychotherapist and formerly a merchant naval officer and engineer.
That's enough to to cram into anyone's life.
All available to you through one of my services. Why not get in touch today, it all starts with a connection.
Look forward to speaking.

A brief introduction
I enable leaders and sales teams to lead or sell with greater empathy, trust, influence and impact in the new Hybrid and post-Covid world.
I provide game-changing programs that transform subject matter expert leaders, practice professionals, SMB owners and sales teams into compelling leaders and advisors who can successfully communicate their expertise with trust, influence and impact to become enablers of success in others and be recognised and rewarded for their value at team, investor, board and client level.
My clients have included Microsoft, Indeed.com, Elavon Bank, Bank of Ireland, Dell Technologies, Keywords International, BT and many more where I've transformed experts and revenue leaders into Highly Trusted Leaders and Business Advisors.
As an engineer by profession I excel at taking complex concepts in leadership, sales and communication and breaking them down into simple, practical and actionable tool kits to help business experts transform into business influencers and highly trusted advisors and leaders.
I designed the unique Global to Specific (G2S) coaching system, I'm a Marshall Goldsmith certified leadership coach and a qualified psychotherapist and hypnotherapist.
So I bring some interesting insights in emotional and social intelligence into my programs.
So I bring some interesting insights in emotional and social intelligence into my programs.
I've written three books; ‘Invoking the Feminine: Strength, Love and Wisdom’ (2019) ‘C.A.S.H: Coaching As a Side Hustle’ (2020) and The Highly Trusted Advisor: How to Win Clients and Lead Teams in the Hybrid Age’ (2021).
I believe that leadership values need to undergo a fundamental shift in order to adapt to this new Hybrid and post-Covid Age that we have been propelled into as a result of the Covid 19 event.
For millennia masculine values have been predominant in society and business. Values such as command and control, competition, ambition, hierarchy, logic, expertise and so on have been essential to humankind’s rise from the pre-Stone Age to the vast and gleaming cities of today and our ability to project our consciousness out into the stars.
However, in the new Hybrid Age and AI (artificial intelligence) Age, digital platforms increasingly provide the expertise and processes previously provided by people (and allow those people to work remotely). So, in the future, leadership and sales success will be defined by a person’s ability to embrace and integrate more Feminine energies of and values such as empathy, nurture, communications, networking and collaboration into their expert leadership and sales styles.
No longer will authority come solely from position or content expertise but also from one’s ability to connect with and influence others to work together, to drive innovation and creativity, to enable success in others and share ownership.
This style of leadership is about creating environments in which our people can excel and where excellent communication, coaching and fostering creativity will be at its heart.
Successful leadership is genderless, it’s no longer about being a male or female professional.
It’s about how well you can balance both masculine and feminine traits and connect, understand and influence people to make change and innovate and leave the processes and the transactional stuff to the online 'bots'.
It’s about how well you can balance both masculine and feminine traits and connect, understand and influence people to make change and innovate and leave the processes and the transactional stuff to the online 'bots'.
Business leaders, practice professionals, SMB business owners and sales teams will need to understand, draw from and balance both Masculine and Feminine values and energies as required to bring balance and make change in society and business.

Building Blocks
6 Pillars of Sean Weafer
The six pillars that shaped me into the recommended leadership and sales enabler I am today.
Martial Arts
I've been a practicing martial artist for years and believes it plays an integral role in developing a healthy mental, physical discipline and personal balance.
I'm currently a 4th Dan blackbelt in Bujinkan Ninjutsu and also a student of Wing Chun Kung Fu.
Psychology
I'm a qualified Psychotherapist, Analytical Hypnotherapist and NLP Master and bring key psychological and emotional insights into my work.
Sales and Big Tech
I've spent over two decades as a business development and leadership professional.
First as a sales executive, manager and then director in the software and technology sector selling to the corporate market and professional practices, before launching my first entrepreneurial venture in professional training and coaching businesses where I continue to innovate in leadership and sales development.
Engineer
I'm originally a mechanical/electrical (marine) engineer by profession. Because of this I connect with subject matter experts and create workshops and coaching programs that are focused on delivering actionable, accountable and measured outcomes.
Merchant Navy
I was an engineering officer in the merchant marine serving as an officer on deep-sea VLCC (Very Large Crude Carrier) oil tankers. This taught me about leadership in tough environments.
Spirituality
I study and write on Celtic Spirituality and other alternative belief systems. I believe that life is not about being 'perfect' but about the continual personal and professional journey of 'perfecting'.
It's important to forgive ourselves and others for errors made, learn from those experiences and reset our pace of life and focus for the rest of the journey.
