Biography Sir Graeme Lamb: KBE, CMG, DSO, Lieutenant General Graeme was commissioned into the British Army in 1973. For the following 38 years he was deployed in various theatres of war, during which he commanded on operations at every rank. Commissioned into the Queen's Own Highlanders he has served in numerous staff and operational appointments including Commanding the 5th Airborne Brigade, the 3rd Division, various doctrine and training posts and as Assistant Commandant at the staff of the Joint Services Command and Staff College. Graeme completed UKSF selection in 1977 and an extended Troop Commanders tour of duty, returning as a Squadron Commander for the Falklands Campaign. On completion of his Staff College Course he returned as the Operations Officer and again as a Lieutenant Colonel Special Forces in direct support of Lieutenant General Sir Peter De La Billiere for the 1st Gulf War. Graeme was selected as Director Special Forces in March 2001 and oversaw Global operations; specifically the Balkans, Afghanistan and Iraq.
Sir Graeme’s extensive experience could help to generate new thinking on many topics. This could include: Creativity, Team, Optimising Resources, Strategic Planning & Competition, Motivation, Logistics, Leadership etc
Graeme stepped down as Commander of the Field Army in July 2009 and returned to Afghanistan at the direct request of General David Petraeus and General Stanley McChrystal, of the US Army to scope a programme designed to repeat the success in Iraq, whereby insurgents are persuaded to give up their arms. In Iraq Graeme was instrumental in convincing his U.S. colleagues to adopt the principle of a process requiring: "patience, subtlety, and a willingness to accept that Iraqis' own proclivities were going to drive much of the war's outcome", and the need to talk to the insurgents, which led to a "strategic engagement initiative� that reduced violence.
