About Me
I’m a small business specialist, strategist, trainer — and one of New Zealand’s most experienced strategic business coaches and mentors.
I typically work with established, growth-focused business owners and entrepreneurs who want to build a better business, enjoy a better lifestyle – and realise more of their potential along the way.
My journey started in banking, but I left the bank at 21 to start my first business. Fortunately, that went well — and 40 years later, I’ve started, built, and grown 14 businesses across 11 industries, including financial services, publishing, food distribution, IT Services, an ISP and a proprietary software business. Some were local, others regional or nationwide and one was international. Seven of my businesses reached the point where they were run under management, without me needing to be there.
Since 2003, I’ve also coached and mentored over 200 business owners — most for a year or more — through 7,000+ face-to-face business sessions. I’ve also led hundreds of workshops on leadership, strategy, decision-making, planning and growth.
I’m a professionally trained coach, a Licensed Facilitator of the Coach Clinic Training (CoachU, USA & Australia), and an NLP Master Practitioner. (NLP, is about how we think, communicate, and condition ourselves for high performance — in business, and life.)
I’m married with six adult kids and four grandkids. Outside of business, I’m into high performance (in sport and business), the beach, surfing, and enjoying good times with my wife and family.
If you’re ready to build a business that truly works for you — and live your life on your terms — I’d love to help. Feel free to get in touch. We’ll talk about your goals and see if I’m right for you.
