Founded by the inspirational Philippa White, CEO, TIE believes in connecting the private sector with the social sector to make lasting change. They link future leaders from the commercial world with social initiatives across the globe. They provide a unique platform that is a catalyst to exclusive Leadership Development, whilst creating endeavours that impact organisations, their beneficiaries and local communities.
What I love about Philippa (other than her talent, energy, passion, can-do/will do attitude and incredible contribution to businesses, future leaders & the communities they work with) is that she asks tough, strategic questions of businesses facing transformational futures.
Such as, “How can companies improve their businesses & the world?” “How can professionals be the change they want to see in the world?”
Their slogan, ‘Better Leaders. Better Companies. Better World’ perfectly sums up why I am proud to be associated with and a contributor to TIE’s transformational vision.
Opportunity Catalysts
Claudia David founded Opportunity Catalysts to put what she learned into practice with the aim of helping companies and executives benefit from the opportunities that change brings by providing the external stimulus needed for internal growth.
She firmly believes that any problem can be solved with the right mix of attitude, creativity, and exploration.
I met Claudia nearly 20 years ago and she impressed me by her natural adaptability to any culture or situation. She is a change-maker, motivated by questioning conventions and discovering new ideas through interrogating alternative perspectives.
During her professional career, she has gained a deep practical understanding of both local and international markets, cultures, people, and their organizations. She has helped big and small companies built, launch or turn around brands or just maintain their leadership status quo.
In addition, she is a qualified leadership coach, team developer and workshop moderator .
Depending on the situation, she adopts the role of a catalyst, coach, trainer, or strategist to help you define your own solutions by providing stimulating tools and inputs as necessary. Rather than nebulous outcomes she always strives for measurable results.
