Founders and entrepreneurs often carry a hidden paradox: high self-belief paired with low self-esteem—“I can do this, or at least fake it well enough, but I’m not worthy of it.” When chaos hits in business, these doubts intensify. Yet, with the right self-awareness, uncertainty becomes a powerful gift. Pierre helps leaders unlock those hidden strengths. As founder of Be Brave, he brings over two decades of experience developing people, building businesses, and designing winning strategies for scaleups and global brands. A four-time
TEDx speaker, award-winning author, and trusted advisor to organizations like Tencent, BP, FNB, and Yum!, Pierre combines insights on human behavior, strategy, and navigating chaos to help people do work that matters.
Based in Cape Town with his wife and two children, he enjoys reading, weightlifting, and the occasional doomscroll.
