Go for leadership with an eye for future generations

Leaders who are more concerned with their own reputation and personal glory often fail to prepare the company for success in the next generation. – Jim Collins (adapted) LYDIA Connect argues that this world is in a leadership crisis: many of our current leaders are more concerned with themselves and their image than with those who follow them. Our TL training focuses on addressing this crisis. This unique training strengthens mutual relationships and removes blockages, resulting in clear goals and

Always be honest!

There is no worse mistake in public leadership than hold out false hopes soon to be swept away. – Winston Churchill

Let the truth be heard!

Many of us feel that the truth is not allowed to be expressed. As leaders, we must create a culture where truth can be spoken. How do we achieve this? Where truth is heard, freedom comes!

Your role as leader

As a As leader, you will function more effectively (and with much more fun!) when you create an environment in which you bring together all the ingredients you need. Challenge yourself to step outside your comfort zone and expect the unexpected!

Why is our company called LYDIA Connect?

Do you know that feeling? Stuck in a situation where what you need is missing? Then it’s time to consider what changes you want so that you can be an authentic leader! As a merchant, a woman named Lydia from Thyatira, who lived around 50 AD, decided to move to Philippi, a Roman colony and trading city in Macedonia.

Good intentions!

We all know that feeling on January 1st, after we have done “too much”: too much food, too much staying up, too much drinking… Enough! We want to improve our lives! Do you recognize this? I do! So we start with good intentions. Diet, exercise and many more plans; being strict with ourselves. Around this time, mid-January, chances are that we have already broken some of these good intentions. And by the end of the quarter we feel like we

Never let a good crisis go to waste!

Winston Churchill proved to be a solid leader during World War II. He said: “Never let a good crisis go to waste”. He understood the principle that a crisis also offers opportunities; meant for good, not evil. I want to challenge you during this Covid-19 crisis to really think about the good things that can come out of this. Remember that we, you and I, have the control to make the good happen! Don’t fall into the evil trap of

Doing good

Exploration visit South-Africa

In May 2017 we visited Rhiza Babuyile to discuss possible product development in Orange Farm (township in Johannesburg) and exporting these products to Europe. We also met Patrick Kuwana in Johannesburg and went with him to Tshwane University to attend his leadership training for the university teachers. This training is truly groundbreaking and Monique and I decided shortly thereafter to get certified as well in the USA. Next to the business related activities we also visited several landmark sites to
