Twenty-five years of senior banking and consulting practice, delivered as encouragement people can act on. Andrew speaks to boards, banks, congregations, universities and teams across East Africa.
Effective leadership, and the habits that separate the people who are followed from the people who merely hold the title.
Management
Optimising personal productivity, managing stress, effective time management — the practical craft of running a team well.
Personal development
The material of Leap Forward: cultivating your inner garden, pursuing excellence, and refusing mediocrity.
Entrepreneurship

Psycho-spiritual development
Faith, purpose and resilience — including preparing for retirement and surviving well off the job.
Mentorship
Leap Forward For Managers: a modular scheme combining practical training, coaching and mentoring to help managers do better.
“When I read it, I called Dr. Obara to run a workshop for about two hundred of our pastors and this helped us to Leap Forward.”
Bishop Dr. Alois A. Rutivi International Missionary, Church Planter and Pastoral Overseer
