Leadership Coach & Trainer
“The most powerful Leadership I’ve encountered is in places like township slums whilst working as a photographer (‘past-life’). I met a Mother who on daily basis goes out into the world to find ways to feed her child, or a parking-lot security guard in Johannesburg with a compelling business vision who, against the odds, found a way to raise the cash he needed to get started… Specifically, these are examples of courage, determination, purpose, innovation and optimism all of which are essential qualities of any exceptional leader. In summary, as a Leadership Coach I know that Leadership is Personal and your success in leading people relates directly to who you are as a human being, your outlook and how you operate – and through this comes your potential to inspire people to follow you.” David Savage
