Alex van den Heever and Renias Mhlongo

If you haven't used Alex vd Heever and Renias Mhlongo at your conference yet, just look at this superb report from a satisfied client and you'll want to include him in your planning.


The function was a huge success.  Mark and Jeanine who both attended on behalf of The Boiler Room, have stated that Alex and Renias' show was one of the best they'd ever seen.  The audience hung on to their every word and laughed till they cried.  Jeanine said she has never before heard such applause and appreciation for speakers before.  One of the ladies from Total, remarked that the year before when they'd hired a comedian, the crowd hadn't laughed as much as when they'd been entertained by Alex and Renias. 
I want to thank you for making us look so good.  Your guys absolutely made the day and we couldn't be more grateful.  Please thank Alex and Renias for engaging the audience and for putting on such a professional show.

How are the Ethics in your organisation?

NEW TALK: Ethics: the 7 big things

There are 7 primary issues that leaders and managers need to understand to ensure they’re up to speed with the primary ethical issues in the workplace and to enable them to effectively manage and improve their organization’s ethics:

1.       Your employees already know what’s right and wrong: Ethics is a choice
2.       Yes, values are different for different people: The leader’s role
3.       What’s the value of an ethical culture and what’s the new ROI?
4.       Are your ethics “bragging rights”, a nice-to-have or an optional extra?
5.       Ethics needs to move from theory and sound intentions to action
6.       Moral temptations are not the same as ethical dilemmas
7.       When to follow the leader - and when not to follow the leader



These are the thoughts of Cynthia Schoeman, Managing Director of EthicsMonitor. If you would like to have her address your organisation, click this link.

“The State We’re In: The World, Africa & South Africa”

Daniel Silke’s latest ‘all in one’ expert Keynote Presentation!

Politically and economically, change is all around us.  From a cash-strapped Europe & financially strained US to the emergence of a rising China – the global rules of the game are shifting rapidly. Investment opportunities are now opening across new regions of the world and selected African countries are for the first time showing signs of becoming impressive growth engines of the future.  Within this changing context, South Africa is struggling to compete. While there have been impressive economic successes, service delivery is weak and fault-lines are emerging to create political risk. After Mangaung and Marikana and with Cyril Ramaphosa back in senior office, new dynamics are affecting the political scene. The ANC remains powerful – yet still fragile. The electorate is changing as the country approaches 2014 election and new political personalities are making their voices heard.

Acclaimed Political Analyst, Author and Keynote Speaker Daniel Silke now offers a broad Global, African and South African analysis – covering the key economic and political drivers of change. In 60 minutes, this comprehensive presentation will whisk you across the world identifying the latest economic and political trends. From the strategic role of the BRICS nations to the economic costs of demographic and climate change; from the rise of the African consumer to the effects of debt and downgrades on the domestic SA economy; from President Zuma’s Mangaung victory to new policy options for the future – all expertly illustrated, dynamically presented and sure to educate, invigorate and subtly motivate any audience.

Now – for the first time – get the Global, African and South African view all in one keynote. Ideal as a conference opening address or ‘scene-setter’, this presentation is currently the most comprehensive available on the market. It delivers the latest – and constantly updated – political and economic analysis and is therefore essential in informing delegates about the ever-changing world around them.  Give your delegates the full-picture – Daniel Silke’s “The State We’re In” does just that!
