OUR CLIENTS

Testimonials

Brian and his company TowerStone have given me the necessary tools to question my culture and the culture of the business.

Mark Bielovich

Chief Executive Officer | BMS Foods

We worked together on culture programmes and Chief Executive talent nurturing programmes to empower leaders on self-mastery. These were key programmes that helped transform the Transnet Leadership archetype.

Ms. Ogothle Sathekge

While in their role of General Manager: Group Talent Management and Transformation | Transnet

Brian was central to help us carve out a different approach and was very adaptable to accommodating a new way of thinking.

Ridwan Khan

Group Head of IT | Clicks Group

He has empowered our Business Unit Leadership Team to set meaningful goals and achieve them through leading in a purposeful manner. This was supported by building alignment characterised by an authentic, learning and meaningful team culture.

Mr. Phillip Tobias

While in their role of Chief Operating Officer | Harmony Gold

Once I asked myself those questions, I knew that I could not externalise or delegate leadership. I had to step up and show up. These are the lessons that will stay with me forever.

Ms. Pindelwa Mda

While in their role of Deputy Head, Global Public Affairs | Nestlé

Leaders miss so many things in this high-paced environment that is right in front of them. It is good to slow down and take time to think of the possibilities and opportunities that might be unlocked if actioned correctly.

Christo Kotze

General Manager | Clover Alloys

Brian has phenomenal insights in identifying with individuals and working within that framework to expand, develop and unlock the future potential of the individual and the organisation.

Mr. Francois van Heerden

While in their role of Executive Director Supply Chain | IMPROCHEM

He has certainly contributed to the growth that we experienced as an Executive Team, which has in turn translated into real results in the rest of the business.

Mr. Tumi Tsehlo

While in their role of Managing Director | The South African Mint Company

Brian has the great ability to provide tools on how to approach leadership development, build high performing teams and navigate organisational realities.

Ms. Rudo Tsagae

While in their role of Business Executive Officer: Food | Nestlé East and Southern Africa

These are very often difficult conversations, but I always leave these sessions better off with renewed focus on my brand as leader and the impact I have on my team, colleagues and the business.

Mr. Gawie Herholdt

While in their role of Organisational Effectiveness Executive | The South African Mint Company

I was able to come across as a more authentic leader while still driving towards the strategic objectives of the business. We then extrapolated this process to my Management Team, which made the entire Exco more effective in leading the organisation to a better place.

Mr. Charlton Whitcher

While in their role of General Manager | ArcelorMittal

The work done in sessions has been unforgettable and filled with lessons that people carried into both their professional and personal lives, as well as into new leadership teams they were asked to lead or became part of.

Ms. Awo Quaison-Sackey

Regional Vice President, Human Resources, Africa Region | Newmont

He has helped me to recognise the importance of reflecting on what I do as a leader and what impact I have on those around me – only with that understanding can it translate into tangible performance improvements within the organisation. The approach and systems applied by TowerStone are extremely solid and well thought through. I can only recommend any Executive Team to embark on this journey.

Mr. Matthias Vogt

While in their role of Group Financial Director | Afrox

TowerStone helped me build foundational teamwork and supported us on our journey to become high-performing leaders who are truly connected to the people in our business.

Alwyn Pretorius

Managing Director | Newmont Papua New Guinea

Thanks for pushing us into new spaces, Brian – we are a much stronger team as a direct result of your input.

Guy Mungle

Sales Director | Nestlé South Africa

Brian’s passion and insight are contagious, and he has always left me inspired but also challenged beyond anything I’ve ever experienced. I can definitely recommend him to anyone serious about change.

Mr. Abrie Liebenberg

Chief Technical Officer | DetNet

OUR APPROACH

Forging rewarding connections

Meaningful connection can’t be dictated by an overall culture, it has to be forged between individual team members. We fire the furnace that makes this possible. Our SMARTspace content enables the real conversations that allow teams to experience each other in a new, deeper and more meaningful manner.

It is a unique privilege to facilitate and witness those captivating moments when everyone leans in with their full attention. Moments when new insights are born: insights that tell us more about how it feels to walk in another’s shoes, insights that remind us that we are all imperfect human beings with our own story. Moments that bring teams together and help them stay together in the tough times, as well as in the mundane times, supporting each other no matter what. These moments build lasting trust, and the energy released sparks the change back at work.

When teams really connect like this, it changes the narrative from not letting the business down to not letting each other down – because we really are in this together. I see you, I know you and I won’t let you fail. And when we all succeed, the business thrives. Talent lies with the individual, but true success lies with the team.
