life. loves. obsessions.
life
I am a strategy consultant based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
I founded Global Advisors in 2006 after 8 years at Gemini Consulting and a year at Deloitte before that.
GA is based on a belief that combining a quantitative approach to strategy with amazing people that share a strong set of values would allow me to build a special firm delivering great results for our clients.
My life is a mixture of business, team, family and friends.
loves
I am lucky to be loved by family, friends and a wonderful dog.
obsessions
A work colleague from Europe once laughed that I was a crazy mix – “A sports obsessed geek!”
I love technology, art, music, business, sports, photography, the bush – my obsessions are mixes of those.

SuiteCRM Auto Import of Emails not working
As per this thread – https://github.com/salesagility/SuiteCRM/pull/7459 – a problem with the email charset (apparently specifically with Office 365 emails?) cause auto import of emails to fail.
Technology I work with
I have built out our technology stack over the last 17 years and continue to support and grow this.
Everything is self-hosted on-site. Partly this is demanded due to the confidentiality of our client data. It also gives us massive independence, low cost and control.
Our systems and implementation should support the scaling to thousands of employees in a short amount of time if that was the direction we chose – it is a very powerful platform differentiator.
