The word 'Engineering' is derived from the Latin word for 'Ingenuity' which means creative problem-solving through specific knowledge.
I apply it to the development of people and solving business problems.

3 Important Keys To Success in Leading High Performance
"An organisation will never outperform its leaders.
From personal experience and observations, I believe that 'Modern Leaders' must strive to excel in 3 core areas in order to drive top performance:
- LEAD PEOPLE on a journey of growth towards a clear, purposeful vision;
- LEVERAGE PROCESSES to maximise productivity and minimise human failure;
- SOLVE PROBLEMS by eliminating their root causes to prevent recurrence.
The fundamentals of leadership are timeless and unchanging. The art of their application must continuously evolve in the face of fast-changing realities."
