Most people working with development, regardless of context, use a problem-solving approach. They look for problems, errors and shortcomings and think that if we just fix what’s bad, things will automatically become great. But that’s not the case – if we simply remove a problem, we will only get to OK, neither bad nor good. And this isn’t development – it’s damage control.

Do you want real, positive and sustainable development? Do you want to create a workplace characterised by pride, happiness, engagement and creativity, where people perform at their best and reach exceptional results? Then you’ve come to the right place!

My most popular talks are about Strengths-based development. Using a strengths-based approach means focusing more on everything you already do well and how you can do even more of that, rather than on errors, problems and deficits. It’s also about having an appreciative mindset and look for what’s right rather than what’s wrong – both with yourself and others, in life and at work.

The strengths-based approach is reflected in everything I do – keynotes, trainings and strengths-based workshops.

Book me as your speaker, trainer or workshop facilitator if you want to shift your focus, learn to identify, utilise and build on your successes and strengths, and lift your team and the work you do to a whole new level.
