Deon recently started a profitable boutique hotel, made it self-sustaining and then sold it within three years - giving him a 4500% return on investment. Last year he was the youngest and fastest entrepreneur to be rewarded the Enlightened Wealth Institute $ 1 Million Gain Award by business guru and best selling author, Robert Allen. By having Deon as a Business Coach you would be working with an enthusiastic and experienced professional.
He passed the Public Accountant and Auditing Board examination while working for PriceWaterhouseCoopers as an audit manager. By relying on systems, he reduced his audit team from 19 to 5 and finished a large audit in record time. He was commended by the senior partner of PWC for this achievement. This early win in his career inspired him to join Oracle Corporation to specialise as a financial system architect.
After two years Yahoo! recruited him to project manage the rollout of their finance system to 13 countries. Every monthend the system is saving Yahoo! days of work and brings transparency for decision making.
With this global project management experience, Deon started his own IT consultancy. His passion for systems, creativity and team leading abilities were important to deal with his fast growing company. Within 18 months his team of 36 consultants implemented financial, budget and tax programs for General Electric in six countries. He also established three offshore teams to support the GE system users. Four years after he founded the company he stepped out as director and owner to follow his passion, helping business owners as an ActionCOACH.
By combining his business background with the world class mentoring system of Action, Deon brings business satisfaction: One of Deon's clients saved 10 days per month by changing her marketing process. This allowed her to tripple her team and double her business within 6 months. Another client managed to achieve 25% of his annual projected turnover within four weeks of working with Deon!
