More about Igno

Why you might want to consider Igno to do a keynote, training or facilitation session with your team.

Passionate Learner

I attempt to read at least one Business related book per week.  This assists me in keeping with Business Trends as well as understanding the fundamentals of Business in an ever changing, ever expanding environment.

Finding Stories

Having written weekly columns as well as regular articles for the media over the past ten years, I have learnt that Stories are everywhere.  Stories are powerful, the way in which we tell them are often indicative of the direction our lives and business strategy will take.

Lecturing

As a part time lecturer on Leadership and motivation (BML degree) as well as Strategy (MBA), I learnt the importance of adding substance to presentations and workshops. Facilitation should not be done in an academic way, but as I facilitator I need to ensure that I stay on top of trends, ideas and ideals in the realm of leadership.

Corporate Trainer

As a corporate trainer, I have the benefit of staying in touch with real world challenges. The corporate environment is consistently looking for thought leaders who are not only idealistic, but also realistic. The corporate environment keeps me grounded and curious in terms of finding balance, overcoming challenges and sharing experience and experiences.

Photographer

As a keen photographer, I often work with the relationship between photographic and leadership concepts. In workshops, we often investigate the practical and theoretical challenges of Big Picture Thinking, Focus, Zooming In, and other relations between photography, life and business.

Sense of Humour

I believe laughter is essential to learning. When I present or facilitate I believe that the audience should become emotionally involved in the presentation/session. Laughter is not only the best medicine, it is also the best way to package important information.
