Colin Harper

Did you know?

A former Hostage and Crisis Negotiator with Police Scotland, Colin runs our negotiation skills training courses at Pink Elephant.

His decades of experience have taught him that good negotiation means listening first and speaking second.

His programme, developed with Pink Elephant, is informed by the skills of expert crisis negotiators over the decades, to help you negotiate with staff and bosses or hash out your next big deal.

A graduate of the FBI Hostage Negotiation Program at Quantico, Colin has been deployed in high-risk, life-or-death negotiations from North Lanarkshire to North Africa.

And outside work?

Colin’s passion is travelling and sharing new life experiences with his family.

He particularly enjoys kayaking when overseas, although his wife Hazel frequently has to prevent him from entering crocodile- and shark-infested waters!
