Training
Intercultural communication training from a comedian?
Yup, that's right. My career started in education and for over fifteen years I've delivered training for schools, universities and multinational corporates.
So let's laugh and learn together!
Corporate Training in intercultural communication and presentation skills. Laugh and learn at the same time. Teaching isn’t just ingraining information into participants’ minds to memorise — it’s about providing them with the tools they need in order to think critically and succeed. I believe that successful training changes habits, and ultimately improves quality of life. For over 15 years, I have provided businesses and universities in Switzerland with training in intercultural communication and presentation skills. Working with many of Switzerland's top companies to improve their effectiveness in global business.

Who leads the ceremonies?That's me, Shane Norton, the host of Comedy Kiss. You may know me from all the comedy shows that I organise and host. In this context I'm very good at setting the scene for the evening, warming up the audience and teasing them about their careers, home cultures and hobbies. I've been married and divorced. And I was incredibly proud of being married and incredibly heart broken by the ending of it. It was enough to set me off on a journey to learn more about love and relationships. This led me to explore relationship psychology, tantra and alternative relationship forms in search of the keys to the healthiest relationship possible. It has culminated in being in the most loving and healthy relationship of my life and me stepping into the role of organiser for an internationally renowned conscious relationship and conscious sexuality school (more coming soon). For you I take my role seriously as both a comedian and a wedding speaker. I'll soak up all your stories of how you met and how your love developed to create material for the ceremony opening. Then we'll share and exchange hope, dreams and philosophies around marriage and love and I'll entwine these into your ceremony. In regards to languages spoken, I'm British, so I probably speak English better than you do and I also speak very fluent and surprisingly good German. And before you ask, no I'm not religious and I never have been. I hold the belief that neither I nor anyone else knows the truth about life. That means, I neither need to prove my way is right nor prove anybody else's way is wrong and that leaves me open to benefit from all the things I find interesting and useful in other views of the world. So if you want a hindu, islamic, shamanic wedding led by a comedian, why not!?!
