Books

Welcome to my books page!

I hope you find plenty of ideas and inspiration in the pages of my work. And, most importantly, I hope you enjoy what I’ve written. I’ve tried to make it that way.

I currently have three books in publication, all on leadership and personal development. More books are coming, including a novel that I started over 20 years ago! All relate in some way to my journey in life, from my upbringing surrounded by wildlife and war in Zimbabwe, to my leadership career across three continents.

I’m totally passionate about animals and wildlife, so I suppose it’s not surprising that two of my books turned out to be fables about some of the African animals from my homeland region.

I love to hear from my readers, so please reach out and let me know about your journey, whether you’ve enjoyed my books, and whether they’ve helped you. I hope so.
