About Rob Hosking

Dubbed ‘The Mighty Motivator’ by Chris Evans, Rob Hosking is an international TEDx motivational speaker and former front-line Police Officer, renowned for his ability to inspire teams and leaders to adapt in fast-changing, high-pressure environments. With years of experience responding to unpredictable situations, Rob has developed a deep understanding of how individuals and organisations can thrive in the midst of uncertainty. His unique perspective stems from his time on the front lines of policing, where no two situations were the same, and quick thinking, adaptability, and resilience were essential.

Rob’s talks focus on the key principles of managing change and building resilience, helping teams develop the skills needed to remain adaptable, calm, and solution-oriented when faced with challenges. Drawing from real-life, high-stakes incidents, he translates powerful frontline lessons into practical tools that businesses can apply in times of pressure and rapid change.

After silently battling his own mental health struggles during his policing career, including PTSD and depression, Rob now speaks openly about the dangers of never opening up. His story is a raw and relatable insight into what happens when people suffer in silence, and how it’s possible to come back stronger with the right support. He uses these personal experiences to break down stigmas and spark important conversations around mental health, trauma, and emotional wellbeing.

Through his talks, Rob champions the importance of creating psychologically safe cultures, environments where people feel safe to speak up, support each other, and bring their whole selves to work. He has featured on the likes of the Chris Evans Show and GB News sharing about his experiences with mental health challenges and trauma. Many organisations seek out Rob to speak openly and honestly about mental health in the workplace as a result.

What sets Rob apart is his ability to balance intense, often difficult subjects with humour, humanity, and hope. He weaves personal anecdotes from his time in uniform with practical insights into leadership, teamwork, and adaptability, making every session both impactful and deeply human.

Trusted by organisations such as the NHS, Kellogg’s, London Stock Exchange, Heathrow Airport, Parker Meggitt, Secret Escapes and many more, Rob’s down-to-earth style, real-world experience, and motivational delivery make him a sought-after speaker for teams who want to perform under pressure, while looking after their people in the process.

Whether speaking at international conferences or internal company events, Rob’s message cuts through. He inspires audiences to think differently, act courageously, and build environments where both people and performance can thrive.

Natasha Cobbold

"Rob was absolutely brilliant. We were so pleased with his talk. He really understood what we were aiming for with the conference and delivered an incredibly motivational and inspiring talk, which slotted in perfectly. Everyone I’ve spoken to has mentioned how much they enjoyed listening to him. Seeing some of the high-level leaders making notes, getting involved in the discussions and taking photos of his slides was truly impressive. He really did an amazing job and we’d definitely recommend him to others."

His story is incredibly impressive and his journey clearly shows how well people can adapt to difficult life situations and grow from them. Rob is professional, authentic, motivating and to the point. The feedback has been incredibly positive, and I would not hesitate to hire Rob again."

Rob captivated our audience, giving valuable lessons for both personal and professional life. Feedback has been incredibly positive, and I would not hesitate to hire Rob again."

PQA Academy

"Welcoming Rob to Havering was a delightful experience. Recently, we collaborated with Rob to host a talk as part of our Men’s forum. The talk was inclusive for all staff within the organisation, and it's safe to say that everyone who attended was equally impressed by Rob's fantastic presentation. Rob has a remarkable talent for sharing his personal experiences openly and respectfully. Prior to the talk, after discussing my goals with Rob, I can confidently say that he successfully encouraged staff to be observant of signs indicating someone is struggling and to ask about their wellbeing. Meeting Rob and hosting the talk was a genuine pleasure, and I look forward to the possibility of our paths crossing again in the future."

London Borough of Havering

"Rob was fantastic – speaking with such authenticity and charisma, you could hear a pin drop during Rob’s speech. Rob finds a unique balance of humour, depth and rawness in his speaking which lands brilliantly for an audience, delving into tricky topics in an accessible manner. Rob is honest and down-to-earth and this comes through when he speaks. We have had a huge amount of feedback on how great Rob’s speech was and many have taken away huge lessons, so thank you to Rob for helping shift the dial on the important issue of men’s mental health."

Heathrow’s Altitude network

"I had the pleasure of listening to Rob one morning at the LSE. I didn't know was going to be speaking and it was a pleasant surprise. His talk stood out from the rest and was the kind of cognitive diversity that Matthew Syed talks about. I have a good friend who's in the force. We rarely talk about work and Rob's stories reminded me of the brilliant work our police do and their utmost resilience in the face of daily challenges and adversity. In order to perform well, you need to take care of yourself. Get Rob in to talk about T.R.U.S.T."
