Just like everything in life, there are beginnings and endings to every situation and everything living. Yet we so often try to avoid them, which leads to nothing but endless suffering.

This is a relatively common topic openly discussed throughout hundreds, if not thousands of years in yogic philo...

Sure, let’s change everything as long as I don’t have to change, seems to be the order of the day.

This is the somewhat unpopular viewpoint of those happy to complain about what is going wrong. Yet, when it comes to participation they have all the excuses in the world not to participate.

Is your organisation embarking on a business transformation program?

If you are and you haven’t taken a solid look at your culture, you had better get ready for what picking off the proverbial scabs, can do to your culture in a business transformation program.

In the highly intellectualised world we now live in, this idea might seem a little odd to consider, but in reality, it’s simpler than you might think. Excuse the pun!

In my lifetime, spanning a little over 50 years I’ve seen a solid rate of increase on the belief that knowledge is power.

Today, let's try something different from the onset and begin with a whole new idea. An idea, which if you are at all like the leader I once was, might make you somewhat uncomfortable.

There are literally hundreds of change management strategies in the transformation marketplace, with organisations far too readily hanging their hats on what some like to call the tried and tested.

Organisations on masse, whether by choice or by pressure, are seeking to transform in some significant and costly ways.

In business transformation, it is critical to get to a place of understanding through transparent and inclusive dialogue early on, if you want true and lasting success.

So why do so many organisations take the secrecy path or fail to engage early by waiting for the perfect launch date?

It is an...

Workplaces are digitally progressing exponentially with new technologies at their fingertips, but are they transforming as many would like us to believe?

The short answer is, unfortunately, a most definite NO. Yet why have we dropped the transformation ball so badly?

If you want your workplace...

The modern workplace has changed forever. We can thank COVID-19 for the fast progression to remote working, or can we?

Across the globe, there has been a gradual shift to remote working, in a variety of forms, for more than 20 years. Yet it has never really taken off on mass. COVID-19 brought us a...

What exists without exists within. Sounds like a riddle, right?

This might seem like an over-simplistic idea in what appears like a complex world. However, if you stick with me on this one, you might discover the simplicity that is hidden beneath the complexity that we have woven into every corner...
