THE RUGBY BUSINESS NETWORK EVENT

Battle of the Bush – AB De Villiers Golf Day

Caps off to AB for hosting an outstanding charity golf day in aid of young Brandon Menezes, a gifted and brave athelete with a wish for two prosthetic legs! As a show of support, a large gathering of sportsmen joined forces on the greens at the Pretoria Country Club. It was pleasing to see the cricketers keeping their form with the little white ball while us rugby fellas were tempted to just pick it up and run but we managed to get some decent swings in before being lured to the 19th….leaving the ‘battle’ to make our flights the next day!

Mzanzi Trophy Are you an adventurer who clearly sees the “Camel Man” when he looks in the mirror! If so, the Mzanzi Trophy Challenge www.mzanzitrophy.com is right up your alley! The 2013 Mzanzi Trophy kicked off from Cape Town as teams in 4x4s stormed out of town up the N7 and took in a grand adventure of six African countries.

Organisers Mountainshak Adventures guaranteed participants the holiday of a lifetime taking in the sub Saharan continent and certainly delivered on their promise!

Teams tackled the “Spirit of the Great Heart” Challenge, driving 8000km in 20 days using their

own off-road vehicles, while completing tasks and seeking out clues as they journeyed through Sossusvlei, Swakopmund and Etosha in Namiba, the Makgadikgadi Pans and Savuti, Moremi and Chobe reserves in Botswana, the Victoria Falls in Zambia and the beaches of Lake Malawi – in a quest to discover the secret finish line location in Mozambique.

Mountainshak Chief and ex British Army Captain, Daryn Hillhouse guaranteed: “The Mzanzi Trophy isn’t a guided, air-conditioned tourist experience it’s a rough-and-ready adventure that is not for the faint-hearted….“One Life, Let’s GO!”

Name Your Hood receives International Award NYH Founder Bruce Good and his team are doing great things out there in ‘da hoods’! Elevating public awareness, pride and a strong sense of community, this initiative gives businesses and residents in a neighbourhood an identity and something to coalesce around, while clearly defined neighbourhoods make cities and townships more legible. Think Soho and Gugulethu….

The roll out of these campaigns has not missed the attention of the Gates Foundation and Bruce recently travelled to LA to receive an international award for a fellowship designed to elevate and expand his work across the globe. South African Ubuntu at its best!

PARETO’S PRINCIPLE,

t h e 80 / 20 Rule, should serve as a daily reminder to focus 80 percent of your time and energy on the 20 percent of your work that is really important.

Don't just "work smart", work smart on the right things!

In a new colomn that I write for the Daily Maverick, have a read on my thoughts of this principle reflected in a recent rugby test game... you know the one I'm talking about!
