Unleash Your Potential
I’m Darren — corporate communication strategist, creativity evangelist, and founder of The Talk2 Group, creator of The 5% Life and Soft Power Communication.
For over 30 years, I’ve worked at the intersection of behavioural psychology, business strategy, and cultural communication, helping professionals across Japan, the UK, and beyond communicate with clarity, confidence, and heart. From pharma boardrooms to creative classrooms, my focus has always been the same: empower people to speak, lead, and live with intention.
Through The Talk2 Group, I’ve trained thousands of professionals — bridging East and West, logic and emotion, global mindset and local nuance. But the deeper I went, the clearer it became: real growth doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from dedicating just 5% of your day to what truly matters — your voice, your focus, your well-being, your creativity.
That insight sparked The 5% Life —
a mindset, a method I bring into my coaching and storytelling and now a movement.
My mission?
To spark meaningful change — not by overwhelming people, but by showing them how small, deliberate shifts in communication, creativity, and awareness can change everything.
If you're looking for a partner who combines behavioural science, sharp strategy, and human warmth — let's talk.
