It seems counter intuitive to me that at a time where speed is of the essence, so many people within organisations are increasingly slow to make decisions.
Am I being extremely unfair given the tough economic conditions that we are currently experiencing? Is it simply fear that is driving caution, and inactivity? Possibly! However, the issue is less about what is happening, and much more about how we choose to act as a result of the causation.
Opportunityisnowhere – You’ve probably seen this before, so apologies if you have… What do you see, when you look at the words joined together at the start of this sentence….honestly – Did you see Opportunity is nowhere or did you see Opportunity is now here?
If you are frozen by fear, you probably should be shaking yourself out of it and making a decision to move forwards boldly and with audacity, because the spoils are to the bold and brave who dare to succeed and move with velocity whilst their competition are inactive worrying what to do next. When they do make a decision, you could have made significant ground. Go on be AUDACIOUS, and you will be glad you did.

I am a highly experienced, energetic, persistent and innovative senior sales professional/sales leader and coach with 25 (plus), successful years of sales and leadership experience, developing and managing sales teams and winning new business with and through partner channels to deliver profitable revenue growth. My default approach is one of clarity, support, openness and flexibility.
I am by nature inquisitive and enquiring and whole-heartedly embrace technology that enhances our experiences. Fun is an incredibly important element of work/life for me, so whilst I am deadly serious about the business of business, I do like to work in an environment that is fun to be in.
I am very much a people person and fundamentally believe that it is the people in an organisation that make it a success or otherwise.
I thrive in teams - creating, developing and galvanising individuals into coordinated teams is my forte, and I love a fast-paced dynamic environment too, where great people challenge and ultimately deliver high-quality results for demanding customers.
I am a passionate advocate for the customer, and hold a firm belief that in the customer economy, World-Class performance is 2table-stakes" to retain (and grow) the customer base. If we get it wrong, we say so quickly and act to rectify it.
I consider myself to be a catalyst – connecting and coordinating people and opportunities. I am a motivator and inspire people to be the best that they can be through coaching and mentoring.
One of my favourite "quotes" is
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body. But rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, with a beer in one hand, shouting "Whoo, what a ride!!"
