    Posted in family, leadership on Jun 27, 2018

    The month of June can be many things: • Realisation that the year is already half gone (what happened?) • End of financial year (gasp!) • Winter - at least here in Australia (brrrrr!) • Shortest daylight days (back to bed)

  • Our Stories Create Our Reality

    Posted in relationships, team performance on May 22, 2018

    When we are building leaders or teams we must carefully construct a positive story about each individual. We should be able to name their strengths and their past successes. When people feel known and acknowledged they are far more likely to strive to contribute to the company goals, no matter how hard they are.

  • The Value of Others

    Life is too important to do without considered thought, planning and conscious choice. Are you living your life by design and focussing on your priorities or living in response to others’ demands and events that happen to you? Is it time to review what you have done well and what you have given your time to?

  • What do you value - and who?

    Posted in values on Jul 27, 2017

    What do you value and whom do you value? Do you put intentional time and effort into the people and activities that you say you value?

    Sometimes we need reminding how important it is to plan time with those whom we value most. Relationships of substance neither sustain nor grow without time and effort. You need a plan! 

    Be vitally aware of what you need to do to deeply connect with those you love. Make time for simple things like sharing meals and kisses and cuddles, but also make time for deep conversations.

    Of course your life partner needs special focus ….. and long passionate kisses! Othe...
