He is a director of "insightsfor.org", which provides high quality leadership and personal development resources to churches, Christian organisations, charities and individuals.

He has worked with individuals and teams in a variety of settings, in I.T. Sales, Charities and Churches, assisting with conflict resolution, personal coaching and personal and team development. He is a Birkman Master Certified Professional and has worked with Birkman International Inc. since 2004. He has a pastor's heart that longs to encourage and nurture, and he delights in the growth of others. As Colin himself says, "the most significant learning for me has been the understanding that God made each of us unique and different. These differences, that often drive us apart, are the same differences that complement us, if we only knew it." He is the author of the unique 8-week "Authentic Community" workbooks, which gives insight into the uniqueness of each individual's Personality and enables the development of real, transparent and open relationships within church small groups. Colin and his wife Mandie live in Devon, UK, from where they keep in close touch with their 4 children and 2 grandchildren.
