After over 40 years in corporate life I decided three years ago that it was time to make a change and look at new and varied challenges. The time as a consultant, strategist, business coach and mentor has been spent interacting with individuals in the business and educational world across a broad spectrum. Services recently provided to the owner-managed businesses I focus on include: strategy refinement; creating investor proposals; writing marketing strategies and company profiles; feasibility studies for new divisions and products; driving a business turnaround; business audits; company restructuring; redesigning jobs, creating job descriptions and development of a performance management solution; mapping and redesigning process flows; and, coaching and mentoring. On a personal level I am passionate about what I do, and see projects through to the very end. I am resilient and adaptable as I have often operated ahead of the current paradigms, and have navigated and grown through turbulent times of fundamental change. I highly value relationships with people at all levels. I have also built a business network both locally, on the wider African continent, and abroad and have travelled extensively. I am willing to work across the globe. I am also a wildlife photographer who spends time in the bush alone or taking other like-minded people with me to view and photograph nature.
