Biography
I help people operate more effectively, by ensuring that they are strategically competitive, relationally competent and reputationally intact in their work.
It is my delight to speak, consult and coach leaders, using 21st Century Leadership knowledge that is customised for each organisational context.
As an entrepreneur, activist and professional musician, I aim to create a results-orientated, creative and spirited atmosphere, and utilising our experienced network of associates.
I am grateful to form part of the faculty at the IDM Business School (http://idm.ac), and to have previously worked at the Gordon Institute of Business Science (www.gibs.co.za), particularly the Centre for Leadership and Dialogue.
My more than 12 years' experience in the field is available to empower leaders to become, or remain, impactful. I also love meeting people from diverse backgrounds and geographical locations, collaborating as we aim for sustained success.
