In my time I’ve learnt to cherish the present and not dwell on the past, reflect and savour the precious moments life has to offer, be determined in pursuit of my goals, and be resilient in the face of adversity. But above all, I’ve stayed true to myself, in business and life.
I left the corporate world. Life without the boardroom trimmings has not been easy, but I chose the path less travelled, or the high road as some call it. I summoned all the things I found out in hard times and good, and embarked on a business venture I believe is a reflection of my ideals and commitment to the community of St Helena Bay and surrounding towns.
So join me over the next few months as I discuss topical business issues to consider when starting and managing a business as well as some anecdotal insights into the life of a corporate executive.
In the first column I deal with the relationship between thought leadership (vision) and strategy with a view to developing business objectives to promote organic growth and commercial viability in a turbulent economy and operating environment.
Until next time, stay true to yourself.
