It was a day that remains etched in my memory, a turning point in my professional relationship with my former boss. At the time, I felt secure in my position and was fully engaged in my work at my desk. Suddenly, I experienced a sharp pain in my back, like a sting.

When I turned around, I was shocked to see my boss sneering at me with a malicious grin. It soon became apparent that he had just driven a staple into my back. Such behavior is unacceptable in any workplace, and it raises questions about a person's judgment and ethics.

This incident marked the end of our trust and relationship and ignited my passion for understanding human behavior and the traits that make great leaders. My desire to explore this topic has led me to a successful career working with and molding some of New Zealand's most distinguished leaders in the NZ Army and Fire Emergency NZ.

Despite any initial misperceptions, I am a seasoned expert in the field of leadership, with a deep understanding of the subject. My experience in kayaking through challenging waters has given me a unique perspective on life, honed by both adversity and serenity. In addition, my informal approach to leadership coaching and facilitation has a positive impact on my clients, helping them to feel at ease and more open to new ideas.

My commitment to helping leaders reach their full potential has led to the creation of various courses to suit my clients' needs. If you're interested in enhancing your leadership skills, I invite you to book a free consultation with me today. I look forward to helping you become an extraordinary leader.

Cheers
