Published by glen March 3rd, 2006 in Meet the AvosI suppose if my wife is the BCIC, I must be the TCOLAPS - Token Coloured Oke Looking After People Stuff , in other words HR!!!(its always got to be a competition!!)
So, who am I ?

At work….a pretty hardworking oke, with a passion for growing people and pips alike.
Stuff I do…People stuff (HR processes), account management, sales, facilitation and consulting
My strengths… Focus, Strategy, Collecting Useful (at least I think so!) info from various sources around the Web (Google is Ubercool!!!) and the world at large…after all, you’ll never know when you might need it, and then something they call Significance…this basically means I really dig hanging out and sharing mind space with other clever folk in the world. So there’s me in a nutshell!
Why Avo? Your strengths are capitalised upon, your vulnerabilities nurtured in a safe, caring environment and people ain’t scared to laugh at themselves when they’ve really cocked up!
What else to tell….well, I adore my babies, Luca (2) and Jordan (4) and my spare time is made up of a collection of gym, running, training and spinning with my two Uber sexy gymbabes (Tracy & Jeanette). If I have more time on my plate, I do enjoy socialising with friends nad listening to really cool jazz and blues (I’m coloured after all!)
What am I really passionate about in life? Family, wellness, health and engaging at a strategic level with diverse groups of people in order to help them find solutions to issues around work, career and productivity in an ever changing global society.
So, to sum it up….. please engage me in thinking stuff you think might be interesting and let’s chat soon!
Purpose
Building and delivering training solutions that empower people with skills and insight to make better choices and live bigger lives. Being brave enough to take on the challenges at a scale that makes a significant impact in SA and beyond
