Caspar Craven is a Motivational Leadership & Teamwork Speaker, Author, and Leading Authority on the Mindset needed to achieve Big Bold Goals.
Caspar learned first-hand that success isn't about avoiding challenges; it's about embracing them and harnessing their power. He started as a young entrepreneur at 14, and has built and led teams in global corporations, start-up businesses, struggling businesses, and high-growth businesses. Caspar worked for five years at KPMG Corporate Finance and since then has had roles as CEO, CFO, and Board Advisor with multiple successful business exits.
Caspar sailed TWICE around the world - the first time on the World’s Toughest Yacht Race, the BT Global Challenge, and the second time with his family team, his wife, and their three children under the age of ten.
Drawing from his own lived experiences and research from his latest books, Caspar encourages audiences to adopt a Big Bold Mindset, focusing on deep listening, learning, growth, and resilience to turn the impossible into the possible.
To solve the problems of today we need fresh thinking. Caspar’s Keynotes and Workshops equip teams and organisations with the tools to leverage their challenges to fuel creativity and foster collaboration and innovation.

It’s time to think Big. It’s time to think Bold. It’s time to think Big Bold Goals.
Big Bold Goals stretch what we believe is possible.
When we set Big Bold Goals, we also build a plan grounded in reality to achieve it. Goals like ‘5x or 10x’ not only engage and focus a team, they force us to get creative and innovate in ways we may not have otherwise considered.
