about drew
Ten years ago, after successfully spending his front years in textile manufacturing, retailing and corporate consulting marketing he decided to change the direction of his life and take a new path.
After a considerable review of many of the works of the ancient and contemporary thinkers, protracted, intense study and personal reflection, he began coaching, writing, speaking and presenting workshops and seminars - focused on exploring and understanding the dimensions of personal growth and positive change.
Compassionate, highly intuitive and a student of human nature, Drew is an unwavering advocate of hope, continuous learning and the pursuit of excellence.
His journey has been varied. It has taken him to many regions of the world. He has had the good fortune to have lived and worked with wonderful people from diverse backgrounds, cultures, religions and value systems.
From these experiences have come an inclusive world view and an awareness and understanding of diverse opinions and concepts that are of incalculable value in today's multicultural, interdependent urban village.
He is a dynamic and animated presenter who facilitates from the heart and the soul. His stories and experiences will motivate and inspire you. He will challenge you to step outside your comfort zone and explore new possibilities - and he does with it with wisdom, humour, humility and unabashed, right-in-your-face honesty.
The Formats:
In addition to one-on-one coaching with individuals, he works in a variety of formats, including but not limited to keynote lectures at conferences, or meeting with small management groups, exploring and explaining the skills and processes that instruct and drive corporate growth and change.
