B.Psych; MBA; Chartered Marketer (CM); Cert. LSS BB & MBB; **WHAT DO I VALUE AS DRIVERS OF MY SUCCESS? 1. SELF-DEVELOPMENT: My drive for personal growth has always taken precedence in my decision-making. 2. CONTINUOUS LEARNING: I have been learning all my adult life. I dive deep until I’ve learnt more than most. 3. SET HIGH STANDARDS AND GIVE IT MY UTMOST. I set myself and others high standards. Once I commit, I go full ball, no half-measure. 4. AGILITY & EFFICIENCY I find the most efficient way to work fast and deliver outcomes without compromises. 5. EMPATHETIC CONNECTION: In my early sales career, I learnt a valuable lesson – empathy and an ability to connect with another human at a deeper level. 6. HUMOUR: Natural, unforced humour that fits the situation is worth more than trying to impress in other ways; it connects. **DISCIPLINES: Self-Development, Sales, Marketing, General Manager, Continuous Improvement, Art & Photography **KEY ROLES IN MY 3 DECADES: - EXECUTIVE LEADER: Lead over 3,000 employees (see multinational leadership below) - CONSULTANT: Operational Excellence & Continuous Improvement (CI): BHP Billiton, Sanlam Financing, 3M, and Linde. - TRAINER: Trained over 1,300 CI project leaders (mostly BBs and MBBs) and CI leadership sponsors and teams. - COACH: Coached more than 260 CI professionals.
