Since the late 1980’s, I have been fascinated with understanding and exploring the mindsets, attitudes, behaviours, and mental skills that underpin personal, professional, and organisational success.
Through the direct application of these understandings, I built a highly successful corporate career holding a diverse range of executive positions, including: Company Manager, Royal NZ Ballet, Deputy Director and Executive Director of the NZ International Festival of the Arts, Head of Corporate Marketing for the Bank of New Zealand, Business Development Manager for the Starship Foundation and Executive Director of the Kiwi Recovery Trust.
I also established my own leadership, management and marketing consultancy, Cobalt Communication. During this time I worked under contract for organisations as diverse as MTV Europe, Sporting Frontiers International, IMG International, Tourism Auckland, NZ Tennis, NZ Rowing, South Island Academy of Sport, and Tasman Rugby Union.
In 2006 Jamila and I launched Turning Point Clinic & Coaching.
I firmly believe that joy, well-being, abundance, and the freedom to create the life we most want to live, is our ultimate birthright.
