Sandy McMillan has been helping people to find their way since he qualified as a navigation instructor in the Royal Air Force in 1958.

After 20 years as an aviator & linguist, and seven as a Rolls-Royce manager & internal consultant, in 1977 I ‘exchanged the comfort and security of the licensed brothel for the excitement of walking the streets’ (as Malcolm Muggeridge put it) and went into private practice as a management skills trainer & mentor.

I feel most of us don’t get listened to enough, so have spent a lot of time as ‘a skilled ear’ to all kinds of folk (from jobless young people to Directors of Lloyds of London) in the UK, Europe, the Middle East & Africa. I carry the toolbox and the oil can while people dismantle the obstacles that stop them moving forwards.

I am a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development, and of the Institute of Scientific & Technical Communicators; I have a Diploma in Counselling at Work from Roehampton Institute and an Online Tutor Certificate from Abacus Learning Systems & the Institute of Leadership & Management. My books include ‘How To Be A Better Communicator’, Kogan Page (1996) & ‘Continuing Professional Development’, Fenman Training (1997)

The car that I've adopted as a symbol of freedom and choice is a Citroën DS 23 cabriolet, UYN 756M, which I owned for many happy years. One of the most beautiful cars ever made, it didn't need to be driven fast to give everyone pleasure. It put you in effortless control and gave you a swift way to "be somewhere else" through an enjoyable journey.    Which is what I've tried to make this site.
