How I can help

My professional background

As a Chartered Manager (C.Mgr) with nearly a decade of experience in leadership and organizational management, I have honed my skills in effectively managing teams to produce the results necessary for businesses and organizations to flourish in the long run. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege to strategize and cultivate unique opportunities that distinguish my employers from their competitors.

Over the years, I have had the pleasure of working with renowned companies and brands such as Nespresso, Benefit, Pokemon, Bestbuy, Disney, Virgin Active, Levi Strauss & Co., and the Cape Union Mart Group. Through my work, I have gained invaluable experience in driving growth and success for these organizations.

Currently, I am working on the development of two digital service apps that I believe will make a positive impact on our world, paving the way for a brighter future. With my extensive experience in leadership and organizational management, I am confident that I can navigate the challenges and lead my team to success in this exciting venture.


How to work with me

What I can offer

As an experienced professional with a passion for entrepreneurship and a strong interest in idea creation and innovation, I would love to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into reality by offering my expertise in business development and management. I firmly believe that entrepreneurs have the potential to make a significant impact on the world, and I am committed to supporting them in their journey towards success.

In particular, I can provide guidance and support in critical areas such as business planning, marketing strategies, financial management, and team building. My extensive experience working with both startups and established businesses has given me a deep understanding of the unique challenges that entrepreneurs face at every stage of their journey.

In addition to my expertise, I am also an excellent communicator and problem-solver, which I believe are crucial skills for anyone working with entrepreneurs. I am committed to listening carefully to the needs and goals of my clients and tailoring my approach to meet their specific needs effectively.

Ultimately, my goal is to help entrepreneurs build sustainable, profitable businesses that not only benefit them but also make a positive impact on their communities and the world at large. With the right guidance and support, entrepreneurs can achieve their goals and make their vision a reality. I am excited to work with entrepreneurs and help them realize their potential.

My expectations for a successful mentoring relationship

As a mentor, my primary expectation for a successful mentoring relationship is open and honest communication. I believe that clear and effective communication is the foundation for any successful relationship, and this is particularly true for a mentoring relationship.

In addition to communication, I also believe that a successful mentoring relationship requires a mutual commitment to learning and growth. As a mentor, I am committed to sharing my knowledge and expertise, but I also believe that the mentee has a crucial role to play in their own development. I hope to work with mentees who are eager to learn and willing to put in the effort to achieve their goals.

Finally, I believe that a successful mentoring relationship should be built on trust and respect. I understand that every mentee is unique, and I am committed to tailoring my approach to meet their specific needs and goals. At the same time, I hope to work with mentees who are respectful of my time and expertise and who are willing to be open and transparent about their goals and challenges.

Overall, I believe that a successful mentoring relationship is a collaborative effort, and I am excited to work with mentees who are committed to their own growth and development.

How entrepreneurs can prepare before we start

To ensure that our mentoring relationship is as productive and effective as possible, there are a few things that an entrepreneur can do to prepare before we begin:

Identify your goals: Before we start working together, it's important for entrepreneurs to identify their specific goals and what they hope to achieve from the mentoring relationship. This will help us both to stay focused on what's most important and create a plan to achieve those goals.

Gathering information: Entrepreneurs should gather any relevant information about their business or idea, such as market research, or customer feedback. This will help us to better understand the business and identify areas for improvement.

Being open and honest: It's important for entrepreneurs to be open and honest about their strengths, weaknesses, and challenges they face. This will allow us to work together more effectively and identify the best strategies for success.

Commitment to the process: Mentoring can be a valuable and transformative experience, but it requires a commitment from both parties. Entrepreneurs should be willing to put in the time and effort necessary to achieve their goals and make the most of our mentoring relationship.
