Choice Dynamics

In the life of a leader nothing is as important or nothing can possibly be more important than the leader’s attitude towards choice.

Can People Really Change?

One of our readers responded to one of our articles and commented on the need to catch our youth early in order to train them in positive behavioural dynamics.

A Country Of Presidents

I had this epiphany-like question emerging in my mind whilst listening to Mr Trevor Manual addressing a hall filled with leaders at the recent Die Burger and Kaapstad Sakekamer Business Leader of the Year event.
