Have your cake and eat it

We had our cake ... and we ate it! at my first open house. 12 business women + Werner's delicious menu + Lindi's Bonnievale Wine + a little stoking of the fire ... just the recipe for connecting and building relationships through shared experiences. I'm looking forward to the next one!

Unity for Africa Foundation
iGems Programme

On 5 March I had the pleasure of presenting one in a series of work-readiness workshops to these 2020 matriculants, now engineering students in phase 2 of the Unity for Africa Foundation’s iGems programme. We worked through practical steps to develop positive, objective self-knowledge to foster insight and skill in managing their careers. They responded with such confident and enthusiastic presentations (as you’ll see in the photos), it was a truly happy day for this educator. A big thank you to Berenice and Babalo from the #UnityInAfricaFoundation for creating this great opportunity.

 

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I would like to take the time to thank you personally for YOUR tremendous support towards the Mr PE uberMANn campaign of 2018. Mr PE uberMANn strives not only to impact the lives in our community but our vision also entails to strive for excellence, because perfection is God’s business. I thank you dearly for your partnership in the great movement to change lives across South Africa. We change lives! I will never forget the wise words spoken at our first workshop during the first 9 weeks of Mr PE. I still have my notes where I wrote tips on how to present myself and how to introduce myself. I will never throw away that page and I will never allow myself not to give myself the chance to be the person I really am. Thanks to you, Dr, I could express myself throughout the campaign in a more formal and successful manner. THANK YOU. Thank you so much yet again for your input into this great campaign. Ofentse and I look forward to working with you in the near future.
