A creative leadership enabler while capturing moments.

"Leaders make art and artists lead." Seth Godin I

"Leaders make art and artists lead." Seth Godin
I really love this quote as it shows how the art of leadership and the act of creativity are so connected. ⁠
A leader works towards achieving the vision along with the team. An artist leads the way in showing the world their unique expression. Both so similar except for how they are labeled. ⁠

This portrait was taken in Aubeterre Sur Dronne - France. This young woman is both the gallery owner and an artist. No titles or positions for her. She just wants to create and showcase her creations to the world, while contributing by showcasing other creators' and leaders' works. ⁠

“Leadership is the capacity to translate a visio

“Leadership is the capacity to translate a vision into reality…which is exactly what creativity is.”

The connection between acting as a leader or doing something creative is very similar - translating a vision or an idea into reality. Both need a vision, both need steps in place to achieve it, and both need to act as leaders to achieve the desired outcome.

This picture was taken at the famous Pasteis de Belem. A lone baker works to create the tasteful vision of the very famous Portuguese tart. It all started out as flour eggs and custard and ended up as a warm, memorable delicacy in my mouth. Such vision.

This photo was taken in Paris. I love the way the woman takes in the images, and no matter her opinion, the artists exhibit their work offering the audience a window into their creative expression.

Creativity does involve risk, but then again nothing ventured nothing gained. At worst - we learn from the experience. At best we create something new for us and others to enjoy

Even though we can be inspired to start something new, it's only once the journey begins - once we're physically involved with it, brainstorming ideas, believing that it can be achieved, that the inspiration kicks in to get us to the end.
This picture was taken @early.birds.academy of oung kids having fun with a problem solving exercise. Inspiration in action.

Perfection can't be pre-determined, as it's only once the journey begins can the tweaks be made to get us to our vision.
To achieve anything - it's all about starting, the rest happens along the way.

Have you ever noticed how when you think about creating something but don't follow it through, how the ideas and inspiration dry up?⁠
However when you get busy creating, how more the ideas and inspiration flood in?⁠
The secret is to just get going with what you have as more ideas and inspiration will come looking for you.⁠

Photographing reportage, travel, street in fact anything all requires attention.
Call it mindfulness, consciousness, being present, living in the moment, or paying attention, etc. - it's very seldom that the distractions are the most inspirational, beneficial, or memorable.⁠

4 years ago I created a film/stills production training program for people wanting to get into the industry.
This year the course was made available online.
The content of the course covers everything related to the industry as well as;
❎ what is expected of someone coming into the industry.
❎ what they can expect.

🔴 The aim of the course is to contribute to a seamless transition into industry life.

Even though Covid has created hiccups within the industry - like everything else, both the local and international industry is forging ahead.

🔗Details about the course can be viewed in the bio 🔗
