Homeward bound.
Not to my birthplace but to a part of the world where I did a lot of the growing up that enables me to do what I do now.
Auckland Harbour Bridge
Hello fellow Enablers,
A few months ago, during a conversation with one of my mentors who is from Australia, he said, “Why don’t you come over to Melbourne and run some Fulfilling Performance workshops here?”
I’d talked about doing this about 12 months ago but not gone ahead with it. This time it seemed I was able to get more traction. I started talking to my friends, former colleagues and contacts in the region and was delighted with the warmth and enthusiasm of their responses to the idea.
An additional motivator was the opportunity to return to Auckland and reconnect in person with friends and former colleagues.
As I write this, I have a number of Fulfilling Performance workshops planned in Melbourne and Auckland and many other coffee, lunch and dinner meetings in the diary to catch up with great people whom I haven’t seen for over ten years.
If you’re in one of those cities and would be interested to attend one of the workshops or catch up again let me know!

“Go to people” need people to go to!
The Aquilae Academy: Guided peer mentoring and coaching for executives, senior leaders and business owners.
Running a business or holding a senior position in an organisation can be very rewarding. At the same time it can be challenging and even lonely.
There are certain topics we are either unable or uncomfortable to discuss with colleagues no matter how self aware and open we are.
Sometimes it is just not appropriate to discuss an issue with a colleague. Maybe they are the issue!
Our partners and friends may want to listen and help but they may not have relevant experience or be completely independent.
The Aquilae Academy is for senior leaders and business owners who:
acknowledge that they can’t and don’t have to do it alone
value interdependence and
are looking to continue learning and growing with the support of a team of like minded peers
If this sounds like you, contact me and I’ll happily tell you more.
Thank you,
Andy
