WorkLife Balance

Almost every organisation, big and small, maintains a true desire to help people achieve and maintain a ‘work/life balance'.But, it's an almost impossible task, and here's why....The very name itself asks you to achieve the impossible.Keeping anything perfectly balanced is hard. Any slight variant will send things tipping. Life changes. The world changes. Always.Work is busy.There are emails, meetings, blackberry's, changing leadership, changing roles, challenging markets, internal politics,…See More

A Real Christmas Gift

...IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR, AGAINI love Christmas Day.For me it's a general feeling of calm which envelops surrounding streets like no other time of year.The roads go quiet, shops are shut, music floats out of houses - a general feeling of goodwill pervades.... and people get presents.At a certain time of the day, families gather…See More

Accelerating into the Wind

...A sight to behold Each year at lunchtime on Boxing Day I religiously watch the start of the world famous Sydney to Hobart yacht race.It's famous because it's one of the toughest ocean races in the world and can take days to complete... crossing one of the roughest stretches of ocean in often appalling conditions.Lives have been lost over the years and even the most experienced of sailors treat the race with the utmost respect. Conditions are forecast with as much accuracy as possible, but…See More

Why Leaders Must Change the Way they Lead and Engage

WHY WE MUST CHANGE!Leaders must fundamentally change the way they lead their businesses and engage their people.The world is rapidly evolving through technology, markets, politics and social interactions. Faster than ever before.Yet, organisations continue to adhere to patterns of both business and behaviour which are linear, non-flexible and disengaging.The pressures of short leadership terms and fiscal reporting are regularly and understandably touted as an excuse as to why it's just too hard…See More

A: Yes. Q: Was it hard, but fun, but inspiring? A: All three. Q: Did you learn a lot? A:…See More

Know your real business landscape

AnywhereIt has been said by some that this will be the way of the future to get the news.To me this is bad news ... and this from someone who loves his gadgets.You see, I think we'll be even more likely to miss the news we need to know to make our lives more informed, richer and meaningful.Why?…See More

Critical Engagement:

A super aircraft carrier can launch or land planes every 25 seconds. Standing 20 stories tall and stretching the length of several football fields, a crew of more than 5000 men and women ensure the floating citadels continue to play a key role in peacekeeping and war.

From the flight deck to the mess, each crew member wears a color to delineate their specific role on the ship.

If you ask anyone how they see their role …

The Nature of Real Business Change

In the world of business...
