At this time he experienced many frustrations including severe headaches, relationship struggles and financial pressures. This, coupled with a lack of people to turn to for mentoring and advice, caused him to try and find a better way to manage his personal life and business.
John’s personal transformation occurred in a defining moment during a talk he heard where he was challenged:
Did his life reflect the REAL PRIORITIES he wanted it to stand for? He suddenly had a renewed clarity about his life and realised that there was more to life than chasing success.
Within an hour of arriving home that day, John had written down 13 things that he knew he just had to change to get his life back on track. He knew he had to realign his business priorities to serve his own life purpose.
From that moment on, success had a different meaning for John. He knew then that success on its own was empty. He decided to go beyond success, to pursue significance.
He began by cutting back his hours and focusing his energy on pursuing the vision, growing a values driven corporate culture and developing a servant leadership management style.
As a result, not only did his company experience incredible growth, which later led to a lucrative sale to a listed company, but his health, relationships and time for community needs and philanthropic projects improved greatly as well.
Today, John is passionately focussed on seeing other business leaders embark on a life-transforming journey beyond success, to significance!
