For most of my career, I have been leading business turnarounds, startups and closures! Perhaps my life-long reluctance to duck a challenge has resulted in me being tasked with solving the most challenging problems!

I learnt Leadership by learning from Leaders. I  always seemed to be charged with effecting significant changes, resolving issues caused by poor management or worse, wrong strategies!  The many challenges included transform working practices, entering new markets and always doing it both effectively and quickly.

These turnarounds were achieved by leading the change, quickly communicating  that the status quo was no longer in place, and that change was already underway! 

 The difference outstanding Leadership can make in people's lives and the Leaders' influence should not be underestimated. People are not stupid, they know when things are not going well, and whilst some may be slow to embrace new Leadership, the majority will want the new Leader to succeed.

​

Having spent decades in Leadership positions, across the globe and within many cultures, I beleive I am well-qualified to help others who seek to become Leaders. Like the My Mentors - I look forward to helping those that must follow us, discover new ways to develop and execute change in their organisation. 

Transforming an organisation is not easy and invariably tricky. The Leader must possess the necessary skills and knowledge before undertaking such a significant task. The outcome usually has a major impact on people's livelihoods and well-being. Leadership is about placing your people at the centre of change and taking responsibility for them. Leaders are expected to achieve successful change and quickly, often under challenging circumstances. Leadership is not for the inexperienced nor faint-hearted!
