Mentee Reading | We remember moments and experiences - as individuals, employees and customers. Those that endure help us either connect, engage and belong or disconnect, distance, limit engagement. Experiences are important. Memories are important. Journeys and outcomes are important.

Women Of The C-Suite

Mentee Reading | How women excel and confidently take the initiative to draw on the best around them. The takeaways are: join circles of influence, seek out others with different ways of doing things, notice and pick out people with approaches, styles and sector knowledge that both resonates and stretches your own perspectives.

Conflict and Reflection

Mentee Reading | Conflict is inevitable and at times even desirable if those differences result in the design and delivery of coherent, effective strategies. The issue becomes how to turn tensions arising from diversity of thought, personality and experience into an advantage.

Multiply and Shape Your Impact

Mentee Reading | As an executive, the legacy you craft depends on how you empower others, lead or build something that is smarter or better, nurture the right culture, work with impact on what matters, prefer influence to authority and create a multiplier mindset.

Make Possibilities Happen

Mentee Reading | There are two critical things an executive can influence when it comes to making possibilities happen: your strategy and your ability to execute that strategy. After all, any dream, idea or goal without the ability to bring it to reality is merely wishful thinking. Moving from visualisation to actualisation takes a specific skill set, hyper focus and discipline.
