About

Where to begin? I don’t typically follow a conventional format, so instead of giving you a chronological summary of my career to date, let’s start with my Just Thinking brand, as a way to introduce myself and my approach to life. There is always a lot going on in my head. At any one time, I have hypotheses, quirky one-liners, quotes, anecdotes, and stories percolating, waiting to pour. They come to life when I’m out on a long run or weave their way into chats with clients and peers. The play on my name is all about thinking and learning out loud and is also a reminder not to take myself or life too seriously. My non-linear career over the past 20-odd years is one of the things that sets me apart as a coach, speaker, and thinker. Broad experience has led to a deep understanding of the value I bring. As a speaker, my goal is to empower my audience to challenge their thinking and shift their perspective. I’ve had the opportunity to speak to a growing list of amazing audiences at the likes of Mercedes-Benz, Yoco, and Sanlam. As a Coach, I bridge the gap between strategy and tactics. To do this, I play the role of external sounding board, facilitate executive team strategic planning sessions, and hold executive teams accountable by ensuring they keep the main thing the main thing. In business, fitness, and life pursuits, I believe it is better to be consistently good rather than only occasionally great. Great execution is driven by disciplined action, this is where the magic lies. And after completing 10 marathons in 10 days to celebrate turning 40, I can confidently say that pushing through discomfort, staying disciplined, and showing up every single day doesn’t just apply to endurance, it applies to leadership, strategy, and everything in between. “Working with Justin has fundamentally changed how we practice strategy. Facilitated quarterly sessions have created absolute clarity on what strategic priorities will truly move our business forward. He has also been instrumental in embedding the disciplines and meeting rhythms required to keep the team consistently aligned and hold each other accountable for delivery.” - Jordan Ludlow, Managing Director of Tradereach ✍️ My keynote talks are around topics like Relentless Repeatability, Transformative Zones, Neutral Thinking and Time Travel. 🤙 I host a weekly podcast called King Moves with Ethan King (https://kingspiration.podbean.com/) 🤙 I write a weekly Just Thinking newsletter (sign up - http://eepurl.com/hK5WYz). My life motto - "Keep rolling" (I’ve even got a tattoo of a dung beetle to prove it.)

My experience across multiple industries coupled with my analytical creativity makes me ideally suited to help tackle projects of significance. I'm curious, unconventional and entrepreneurial with an eye for detail and how it impacts the bigger picture. If you're an established business lacking the know-how, resources, or both, to get a high priority, highly impactful project across the line then you need to get in touch. The typical process: 🎯 Determine scope of the project via early consultation and investigation. 🎯 Analyse the strengths, weaknesses, and risks of any existing project plans, and provide recommended improvements. 🎯 Identify clear project parameters and specifications. 🎯 Assist with cost calculations and coordinating budgets with financial departments. 🎯 Allocate personnel and resources to project tasks. 🎯 If required, collaborate across departments to set realistic project targets and timeframes. 🎯 Provide guidance and monitor progress made with each project stage. 🎯 Facilitate suitable interventions to prevent and/or mitigate any costly delays. 🎯 Present project progress updates to senior executives.
