About

My key compentencies are: •Leadership, Relationship Building and Communication I thrive on the opportunty to lead a team to achieve a set of objectives. I enjoy interacting with people and building new and lasting relationships. I am able to clearly articlulate my point of view and am able to communicate professionally to all audiences and in all environments. •Business Management, Administration and Control I can clearly determine what the key drivers are in a business and then put strategies in place to ensure that they are delivered upon. This includes the Adminstration and Control processes and policies. •Sales Strategy and Management I use a defined methodology to ensure that a comprehensive sales strategy focusing on the target audience, the sales team, the product and the company objectives, is implemented. This process is measurable against clear objectives. I have applied this approach in real life scenarios and on each occasion the results have been of the highest calibre. I have and can professionally train others to achieve the same results. •Marketing Strategy and Management I apply a clear approach to ensure that Brand and Operational Marketing strategies and activities are implemented efficiently and effectively, so as to drive and support the company objectives. •New Projects, Strategic Planning, Advising and Implementation I am extremely comfortable when addressing any new opportunity or project that requires the development of new systems and administration, employment of people and the development and implementation of clear policies, processes and procedures. •Entrepreneurial Instincts I understand the concept of ownership and the risks, responsibilities and dedication required. I do not see employment as a job, but I see my employment as being part owner of that organisation. •Training and Development I believe in 'Teaching People To Fish', and my entire philosophy around people, teams and group dynamics is to ensure that individuals and the teams of individuals, are able to achieve and sustain greater outcomes through my support, training, development and management focus.
