Winston Churchill
“The one thing, above all others, that I have learned in my career as a sports
scientist, is that what you truly believe in your heart, will happen, is what will
happen.”
Kevin Roberts on Strategy
Ready, Fire! Aim
If it ain’t broke, break it!
Hire the crazies!
Ask dumb questions
Pursue failure
Lead, follow or get out the way
Spread confusion
Ditch your office
Read odd stuff
Avoid moderation
Tom is the "uber-guru" of
management and inventor of
the enormous "management
guru industry," that "in no
small part, what American
corporations have become is
what Peters has encouraged
them to be," that Tom is
"the father of the post-
modern corporation," and
that "we live in a Tom
Peters world”

Why do I love South Africa?
I love her for the perfection of her daysThe crisp Karoo morningThe Joburg winter noonThe late summer Cape Town sunsetThe star-filled Free State night
I love her for her peopleFor our warm smilesFor our resilienceFor our I-am-because-we-are
I love her because she delights my sensesHighveld thunderboltsJacarandas in bloomSunday braaisAfrican sunIcy sea
Why do I love South Africa?
I love her raw power, her intensity, her strength
I love her because of how she makes me feelSometimes angry, sometimes joyousSometimes fearful, sometimes love-filledSometimes frustrated, sometimes hopefulAlways alive
I love her because she intrigues meAnd challenges meThe Chinese have a curse: "May you live in interesting times"I see it as a blessing
I love her because she helps me keep things in perspectiveBy reminding me how privileged I amEvery day
Why do I love South Africa?
I love her for being a microcosm of the worldA world in one countryFor what we can teach the worldAbout compromiseAnd sharingAnd forgivenessAnd toleranceAnd hope
I love her because she's imperfectAnd full of opportunityAnd potential unfulfilled
I love her because she has come so farAnd has so much further to goAnd whether we ever get thereWill all depend on us
Why do I love South Africa?
I love her because she's been so good to meAnd she inspires me to return the favour
I love her because she's my countryNo matter whatI love her because she's my homeAnd where my soul is at rest
By Ian Macdonald
so - in short, because I am running out of time…..
Prepare with zeal, see and write down to believe, expect to make your own luck and future - write it down, yes, again ! Look after the individuals to mould them into a team, get ready to
innovate, learn from others who do, and even don't, communicate it, communicate it again, check it’s been communicated, hire more women, don't overpromise, but aim to over deliver, say thanks, be interested and don't forget how privileged we are to live in this
wonderful country of endless opportunity.

Dr. Seligman's main mission
has been the promotion of
the field of Positive
Psychology. This discipline
includes the study of
positive emotion, positive
character traits, and
positive institutions. Dr.
Seligman is now turning his
attention to training
Positive Psychologists,
individuals whose practice
will make the world a
happier place, parallel to
the way clinical
psychologists have made the
world a less unhappy place.
