What is the value of time? That is the question posed in the opening video I use for my workshops on time management. And it still inspires me every time I watch it.

HOW STRATEGIC IS YOUR STRATEGY?
As the year draws to an end, it is my hope that one of the items on your checklist is an honest appraisal of how well you performed against your annual strategy. ‘Strategy’ has become somewhat of a buzzword over time. However, it has never been more important than it is today to have a

INSPIRED BY THE SPRINGBOKS TO BUILD A WINNING TEAM
It would be amiss of me not to talk about the thing that everyone is talking about… the Springbok team winning the 2019 RWC. What a performance! And what an inspiration to so many people in so many different ways. As a business coach, for me it was about teamwork, about a meaningful goal that

BOO! WHAT SCARES BUSINESS OWNERS THE MOST?
The more I coach business owners, the more I realise that most small business owners have a fear of their own financials. Let’s face it, the unknown is spooky… and so is being in the dark.

The Springboks have a coach. Shouldn’t your business?
South Africans are gearing up to support the Springbok rugby team ahead of their World Cup campaign, which commences this weekend. Behind the scenes, their coaches have been preparing the team for months to ensure they perform to their full potential. A high-performance team simply cannot operate without its coaching staff. So why do so

BRING BACK RESPECT AS A VALUE IN BUSINESS
The media and social platforms have been abuzz the last two weeks with calls to end gender-based violence. It’s resulted in robust debate around dinner tables, at schools, and within the workplace. How did we get to this place, and what needs to be done to turn the tide? To me, it boils down to

IT’S TIME TO SPRING CLEAN YOUR BUSINESS
Today is the last day of winter. From next week, it’s spring. There’s something special about spring. The days are getting longer, which seems to bring renewed energy, the promise of growth, fresh thinking, a new start. It’s a great time to harness this positivity and energy and apply it to your business. It’s a
