Mind-Star Team
Piers Fallowfield-Cooper - Founder
Piers began his career in the financial markets of the City of London. After rapid promotion, he went to Chicago to learn about the futures and commodity markets and then returned to London to establish a business unit in this arena. After working with a major US bond house, Piers moved into general management with a focus on the development of global sales and marketing strategies. He worked on projects in Europe, the Middle-East and Asia-Pacific. He then became President and later Chairman of the International Division of Oster Communications Inc., best known for its FutureSource real-time market data service and the Oster-Dow Jones News services. Piers was instrumental in taking the business out of its traditional heartland in the Midwestern US, opening operations around the world. Piers was also Chairman and a founder of Itsmobile, a Dublin based company that became a leading player in the mobile payment arena.
Piers believes that the professional development of senior executives requires a special approach containing that 'something extra' to make a significant difference to the results. With over 20 years experience in senior management, Piers understands the pressures and challenges that confront the busy executive. A great believer in the use of all the human “talents”, he was interviewed by the FT on the use of intuition in business and later, in the FT featured as an example of an inspiring leader with an holistic approach to business.
In addition to his one-to-one work, Piers especially enjoys the dynamics of working with senior executive teams, whether in a leadership development role over a period of time or as an expert facilitator, assisting groups come together and achieve their objectives.
As a passionate believer in the power of people and with a willingness to propose a contrary view, Piers is respected by those who know him for his insight, wisdom and compassion.
Piers still works personally with a small number of clients each year, if you are interested in working with him individually please
