Speaker, Author, Leader
Chris Hirst is a no-nonsense voice on leadership, careers, and change. A best-selling author, keynote speaker, and former Global CEO, he built his career fixing broken businesses and turning them into world-beaters.

For more than a decade, Chris led some of the world’s biggest creative networks.
As Global CEO of Havas Creative Group, he was responsible for a $1bn P&L and 10,000 people – turning a struggling ‘also-ran’ into a top performer – delivering record growth and profits. Campaign Magazine named him a finalist for Global CEO of the Year in 2022.
Today, Chris shares those lessons with leaders everywhere. Through his books (No Bullsh*t Leadership, No Bullsh*t Change and Indispensable), the No Bullsh*t Leadership Academy and his column in Management Today, he helps ambitious professionals cut through the corporate clutter and lead with impact, clarity, and confidence.
