Russ operates People and Business Insights on Australia’s east coast. They are a mentoring, professional & personal development company with distributors around the country advising and mentoring business leaders and their managers on how to achieve better, more sustainable results in line with their core values.
Russ and his team utilise Axiology (in short, the study of value – of what is good, of clearer decision-making and ethics) as well as the 7 Stages of (business) Growth as core tools to help leaders and companies produce the results they desire.

They offer a proven approach, with demonstrable results across a broad spectrum of businesses

Synchrotron, State Emergency Services NSW, Stroud Homes and many others.

2. Focus on doing the right things at the right times;
3. Adapt your leadership style to the specific needs of your organisation as it grows;
4. Identify and work past roadblocks that are holding back sustainable expansion and profit in

5. Identify “Builders and Protectors” (i.e. the real levels of confidence and caution in your
business), so you can get your people even more engaged, active and productive!
