Will Greenwood MBE has been announced as the presenter of the 2014 FlexoTech Awards
One of England’s greatest ever rugby players, Will Greenwood MBE has been announced as the host of the 2014 FlexoTech International Print & Innovation Awards, which will be held at the Hilton London Metropole on 23 October.
Having played for the Leicester Tigers and Harlequins, Mr Greenwood was also an integral member on the team that won the World Cup in Australia in 2003. Now retired from the professional game, he works as a sports pundit for Sky Sports and writes a regular column in The Telegraph.
In a professional career spanning nine years, Mr Greenwood amassed 55 caps and scored 30 tries, and his ability as a midfield creator is unquestioned. He played in British Lions tours of South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, and scored a hat trick against Wales in the Six Nations championships.
Before turning professional, Mr Greenwood, an economics graduate, worked in the City on the trading floor at HSBC. Today a motivational speaker, he combines his knowledge of business with his sportsman’s determination to win and offers an inspiring guide to achieving success. His topics include leadership, teamwork, attitude and the importance of self belief. He said, ‘Trust, believe and commit. It was always at the heart of what I tried to achieve and for me it is the mark of a great career, no matter who you are or where you play. I stand by that view today, whether I am writing for The Telegraph, about to go on TV for Sky or stand up and give an after dinner speech. Put your heart and soul in to it, and the rest will follow.’
