Your Facilitator

Rob Evans

Highly Experienced International Business Executive

Real World Operational Focus

Rob's content, insights and methodologies encapsulate the lessons of over three decades of international business experience and related research, observation and reflection. 

In a rich and varied international business career Rob has been:

  • Operationally engaged with over 150 businesses around the world
  • Closely involved in over 50 actual or potential acquisition transactions
  • A part of a senior management team that grew a South African domestic business into a dual listed technology group employing over 8,500 people and operating in over 80 countries
  • Nominated for the South Africa CFO Of The Year Award when serving as Chief Financial Officer of a $6.5 Bn turnover group  


'When I needed career advice at a major career junction, I turned to Rob for help and he quickly jumped on a call with me despite the time zone difference. 

I left that call with clarity and focus. 

I left that call feeling empowered, supported and super-sensible! 

I left that call knowing that I just needed to make my plan and execute it. 

This is how Rob helped me get to this point: 

-- Firstly, Rob effortlessly sets you at ease. Simply put, he's genuinely a nice guy, and you're going to feel that humility, energy, and warmth permeating every part of the consulting call with this corporate heavyweight as he makes an authentic and kind human connection with you. 

-- Secondly, he's going to ask you relevant straightforward questions about the situation that will help him draw a picture of what's happening in your career or organization, and help you be clear on what's happening in your head. 

-- Thirdly, expect valuable insights as your mind opens up to opportunities where you had only seen obstacles before, and finally expect him to point you to practical, actionable next steps to move you forward. 

It's all substance and no fluff drawn from his extensive and multifaceted career in the corporate world. 

What amazes me about Rob is: 

-- the ease with which he analyses the situation 

-- the accessibility and creativity of the ideas he shares 

-- the practical nature of the solutions he puts on the table 

This consultancy call was time well spent. As we say in Jamaica "Big up yuhself- Rob!!!" (*** To "big up" someone is to praise or recommend somebody strongly.***)

FAQ

  • What can I expect from the programme?

    You'll find our work guiding you to comprehensively examine how you think about your career, how you equip yourself, how you approach your work with prospects and customers, how you operate internally, how you communicate and how you adapt. Our material is designed to facilitate your considered and candid reflection. We share the lessons of our experiences and reflections illustrated with personal stories, examples and other relevant commentaries. We help you relate this material to your situation through our use of carefully crafted questions. Our goals are to provoke thought, to help you analyse your situation, to help you find ways to enhance your commercial and operational contributions and to equip you with tools and methodologies you can apply throughout your career.

  • How long will it take me to complete the programme?

    You proceed at the pace that suits you best. Within the material many questions are posed for reflection relating to how you approach your career, work and professional development. You take whatever time you wish to devote to reflection on each question as your value comes from utilising the programme as best suits you.

  • Is all of the programme immediately available following purchase or is it made available to participants in stages?

    We want you to succeed and success comes from action. All of the material is immediately available on purchase and remains accessible to you for 30 days. We encourage you to commit to moving ahead with your programme as soon as practicable after you've made the decision to participate. Your value from the programme will come from the steps that you take arising from the thoughts that emerge and decisions you make as you engage with the programme. The sooner you engage the sooner you will realise the benefits for you.

  • Will I have the opportunity to raise questions?

    Yes. Every month we hold a live, invite only, one hour, online Q&A forum to provide you with the opportunity to raise any questions you have on the material. You will be invited to three monthly sessions scheduled following purchase. We will send you the invitations via the email address that you supply on purchasing your programme. We vary the times and days of the week on which forums are held to allow you the maximum opportunity to attend at least one of the three sessions to which you will be invited.

  • I work for a 'non-commercial' organisation, is the programme relevant to me?

    Yes. Our programme is business focused and every organisation is in business. Business principles apply whether you work for a 'for profit' organisation, a public sector body or a 'not for profit'. Each has investors, customers, employees, suppliers and other partners and stakeholders. Each organisation has to deliver some blend of experiences and solutions to its customers and in so doing it is seeking to deliver a return to its funding providers, a return that could be in a financial form or in the fulfilment of obligations.

  • You've mentioned tools and methodologies, can you tell me more?

    We have developed the tools and methodologies we share based on the lessons of our own operational experiences. We have intentionally developed them to be straightforward and memorable for your day to day use. They are frameworks for leadership, organising thought and operational execution. The tools and frameworks we share include The Ten C's Of Outperformance™️, B2BcxoSelling™️, PPMCLeadership™️, The Four E's Of Communication™️ and The Five Cornerstone Principles Of Planning™️.
