Personal Philosophies
The vast majority of people go to work to make a difference
Learn the lesson and then move on
People are not always able to be at their best due to poor leadership or pressing personal issues
Work with a consultant mindset
Treat people with respect, from the cleaner to the CEO, you never know who may assist you in the future
Bring a positive can do attitude to everything you do
Bringing problems/issues to senior managers should be accompanied with potential solutions
Keep confidential information confidential
Thought leadership is the # 1 thing I can bring to an organisation
Keep the saw sharp
Spending 100% of my time on communication will not be enough, so communication needs to be targeted and succinct, backed up with networking
Where time permits, or outside of working hours, I will provide 5% to 10% of my time on networking in addition to mentoring, coaching, counselling as requested
Every week I need to make at least one significant contribution and preferably two or three
My ‘business card’ is my achievements
