For the last 25 years my work has involved creating a meaningful setting that supports sustainable learning. The focus of this activity has been mainly on helping people to develop their leadership competence but has also touched all areas of working life where the ability to communicate effectively is the key driver of personal effectiveness. In the course of designing and delivering seminars and workshops for clients in over 30 countries all over the world, I have also gone through a learning process about how people learn in different cultures and business contexts.
