Coach Antony (Antony Birks) is a transformative executive coach and Business English trainer and teacher. He has, over the past 30 years, been mentoring and coaching a diverse international audience … and from all structural levels – from those who work on the shop-floor, to middle managers, top executives and CEOs.

Coming from a working-class area of London and at the age of 30 he left England with his Bachelor of Science and moved to Germany – a place that he enjoyed as a child and now the place he calls home. His goal and role as a coach and teacher – after having experienced losing everything that was dear to him – is to now bring “the best out” of the people who he works with – with this being a passion; meaning that, most of the time, it certainly does not feel like “work” in the normal sense to him.

Coach Antony is best known for his book: “One Hundred and One Daily Challenges and Affirmations: Helping to Find Inner Peace and Happiness in Daily Life”, which is widely regarded as offering suggested thoughts about life to those with little or no time in our apparent hectic and fast-moving society.

As described in his latest book – Reaching Holistic Change: Making time; allowing wellness; accepting fallibility; following your passion; and finding our raison d’être – life … is full of a multitude of difficulties and challenges, and, as so, Coach Antony is now, once again rising from the ashes. This rise, fall and rise has made him re-examine once again his passion with a new light. Being in the third stage, from within Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey, this puts him in the last section – The Return … where he now wishes to share his “treasure” with this international audience; enlightened readers; and others … who are just willing to listen and perhaps learn.

He now lives, writes and teaches in Hannover, Germany. His sense of purpose – his raison d’être – is now mainly concentrated on his aptitude to teach; his further curiosity to study sociological, psychological and philosophical change; and his general passion to write. His lifelong experiences have highlighted for him what is now important and what is no longer important. Therefore, creativity has always been important for him … be it painting, writing or photography. He offers his 6-week online course – which is solely based on his latest book – for people and organisations that wish to consider an alternative to the status quo.

His profound yet taken-for-granted teachings and suggestions have assisted an international audience to gently find solutions … where they were hidden or masked beforehand.

Antony is a kindly spoken but prolific public speaker and writer, addressing organisations and companies using his directness and giving his alternative keynote speeches.
