- UNLOCK 2017 In South Africa!
It was great to start 2017 in South Africa (and certainly warmer than the UK at the beginning of January!) and after a few days in Cape Town, it was back to work in Durban and Johannesburg before a few days back in Cape Town to finish.
It was my pleasure to participate in the UNLOCK 2017 speaker showcase at Montecasino in Johannesburg, where 35 of the top speakers from Africa and the UK were speaking in front of a corporate audience, demonstrating their skills and specialist areas, and how they may be able to help those companies in 2017!
Being Introduced By Top African MC Cyrus Rogers
Cyrus is a really great emcee if you’re looking for one for your event! Definitely the top emcee in Africa in my opinion. I’m always very impressed watching him work.
My New Keynote Speech – Stand Out Selling – The New Rules For Salespeople
It was great to debut my new keynote speech for 2017 ‘Stand Out Selling – The New Rules For Salespeople’ at this event. Some great feedback from the attendees as well, and looking forward to delivering it for some South African clients in 2017, as well as other places in the world of course!
And Then…. A Few Days In Cape Town
Finished off with a Sales Training session with one of my Global clients on improving the sales of a new digital product for them, and a couple of days off in Cape Town – my favourite city in the world! Next stop, Dublin (via London!)
