Who we are

Meet Thomas Spies

 
His lifelong passion for interaction with people, his training experience, and his desire to ultimately be the catalyst leading to organisations, teams, and communities becoming the best they can be, but profoundly the challenge: “What is life calling him to become?” all lead to the establishment of this Consultancy.

His educational journey commenced with a degree in Human Movement Science at Pretoria University followed by the completion of an Honours degree in Human Movement Science at the University of Port Elizabeth. He completed his MBA degree at the then Port Elizabeth Technikon and is presently reading for a Master’s Degree in a topic about Appreciative Inquiry as a Change Management Tool at Nelson Mandela University.

His career started in 1993 in Government Service with projects focusing on the development of previously disadvantaged communities in developing skills in sports administration and leadership. During this time he lectured part-time at the Business School and Sport Management Unit at the then Port Elizabeth Technikon. He also presented corporate team building activities. In 2006 he changed his career concentrating on private education and training industries by managing training units and organisations. In 2014 he again diversified by gaining experience in the entrepreneurial environment by launching a business in the application of a world-renowned product in the construction industry. In 2021 he once more challenged himself by accomplishing an international training course in Practical Appreciative Inquiry which gave rise to the initiation of this Consultancy intending to function as a catalyst to positive change in organisations and communities.
