Whether you lead 2 people or 20,000 people, the issues are the same!
Over the last 25 years, I have been involved in leading teams that have varied in size from 2 or 3 through to over 300. I've had the opportunity to work for some of the largest multi-nationals as well a leading volunteer workforces.
In my first full-time role after graduating in the UK, I soon found myself in a privileged position. I gained promotion to head the Electronic Production department after less than two months in the company and with it came the responsibility for over 20 staff!
Aged just 22, I had to deal with people on the cusp of retirement and teenagers just entering the workforce. Talk about a baptism of fire!
I learnt many valuable lessons in that Engineering company, the biggest being that leadership rises and falls on action and not position. The more I got to know people, the more successful we all became.
During the last decade, I have been developing a formula to enable passionate, ambitious and smart business owners to succeed in their individual field of endeavour. I help people to lift the lid on their potential and I work, kinda like a sniffer dog, routing out the root cause of a problem as opposed to just masking a symptom.
There are five keys to my formula:
- Avoidance strategies to reduce waste
- Automation strategies to increase productivity
- Alignment strategies to improve efficiency
- Amalgamation strategies to increase profitability
- Acquisition strategies to maximise sales
I deliver these five keys over a number of different styles and formats.

Facilitator
One of the most fruitful mechanisms available to you in business today is independent facilitation services. Facilitation can help people navigate internal blocks and turn heated dispute to healthy dialogue. Facilitators can look at how people have been and are being engaged and support you to look at better and more creative ways to get people working on an identified task, sharing their views and experience and coming up with an agreed and shared plan of work.
