I'm an entrepreneur, management consultant, executive coach and one of the South Africa's new leading thinkers on the Coaching of entrepreneurs and small business leadership. My specialisms are business start-up and growth strategies, leadership development, individual and organisational learning, business innovation, personal transformation, and team dynamics. Five years ago, I became the youngest president of the European Coaching Institute, a body that promotes professional standards and accreditation for coaching and coach training providers in Europe. I'm the author of numerous e-books on various small business issues, papers on coaching and has been featured in articles by The Guardian, The Times and the Wall Street Journal for Europe newspapers.

I was previously involved in the management and development of My1stBusiness.com - a web portal for 1st time business leaders and entrepreneurs. It is my intention to develop My1stbusiness.com into the most prominent provider of one-stop entrepreneurial support worldwide.

The realization of this vision has already started with the building of a highly effective team with a wide range of skills and a passion for young businesses.
