Bruce is the most motivational leader you will meet and has the ability to truly influence your personal success. His sharp mind and genuine passion are spoken of widely and for good reason! I was fortunate to have had a dotted reporting line to Bruce as part of his leadership team during a transformational stage of Caltex. Bruce is a forward thinking, modern executive with the very rare qualities that engender trust and respect for a successful functioning team.
- Greg Kaye, Senior Legal Counsel & Consultant
I have known Bruce for over 20 years and throughout this time I have been impressed by his high level of integrity, leadership and commercial expertise. His ability to influence others in his capacity as a mentor and giving of his time for those in need demonstrates both a sense of compassion and a level of selflessness, that is inspirational. A person who leads by example.
- Greg Nankin, Company Secretary at Nyamba Buru Yawuru Limited
“I really like the format – mix of content plus stories – the stories make it come alive and on one level are readable on their own. I have grabbed a few ideas for work I do e.g. everyone individually visualising a “ball” and them comparing notes…a simple but powerful one. It is a good easy read – can dip in and out and get a simple message or lesson each time. So many of these books are very worthy but indigestible. Also can make people feel useless i.e. how could I attain that height – yours doesn’t which is a real achievement Well done!”
- James Atkins, Vantage Marketing
