Jon starred in his first professional documentary in 2018 with Kuwaiti production company Prismic Media, filming and producing “A Cycling World Record Across Oman”. In 2020, in his first appearance on GCN’s (Global Cycling Network’s) YouTube channel, Jon was captured, becoming the first man to break the illusive 3-hour barrier for cycling 100 miles. Recognised for his natural on-screen presence, Jon accepted a two year presenter role with GCN + (A subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery, featuring 3.2 million subscribers and 1.1 billion total views on their channel). During his time at GCN+, Jon’s roles included Presenting, conceptualising, researching, scripting and co-ordinating film ideas. The major documentaries that incorporated Jon’s involvement can be found on their subscription channel, GCN+. These films sit within the genres of: Culture & History; Human-Interest Stories; Engineering & Tech; Biochemistry & Physiology and Personal Challenge.

Jon Shubert is a highly entertaining, inspiring and engaging speaker with over a decade of professional experience presenting at conferences, to after-dinner audiences and students. Over the past year, Jon has spoken both in person and virtually at events around the world, including Oman, the Czech Republic and America. Jon’s talks are interactive, customised and incorporate an array of communication mediums and styles.

Calling on his career as an adventurer, athlete, scientist, teacher and presenter, across-industry thinking has epitomised much of Jon’s successes, as has his professional attention to detail, meticulous planning and project execution. Jon’s challenges provide spectacular, original case studies of self-motivation, careful planning, effective teamwork, resilience, chunking and other success strategies, risk/ reward balance, dealing with failure and achieving outrageous goals. Jon is a highly effective communicator who is able to translate these performance strategies to a wide range of business audiences. The content and key messages of talks are always tailored to his clients’ briefs, and Jon is valued for his ability to distil, pitch and convey ideas at the appropriate levels for his audiences.

Jon has spent years challenging himself with adventures and setting records that are achievable but not easy, and he values this critical distinction. Each project has generated its own unique and exciting stories, whether it is redefining the rules to become the first human to cycle 100 miles in under three hours, shaving four days off the previous cycling world record across Oman, cycling across China’s deserts without speaking to a soul for a month, becoming one of the first two men to cycle across North Africa’s Maghreb region, pedalling a catamaran across the English Channel and capsizing 10 Kilometres from the French coast, or even winning national cycling titles.

Jon is a firm believer that we are all capable of greatness but that making the first small step on a journey is often the most daunting. Jon shares his stories to inspire people to take effective action and guide others on their journeys to success.
