Hi. I'm Irlon. I have a degree in Electromechanical Engineering from the University of Cape Town, as well as an MBA. I have however spent a large part of my career as CEO in the banking and investment industries. A few years ago, I left the corporate space to develop real, hands-on skills that will ensure that I do not become a dinosaur who only knows how to delegate and sit in meetings.Finding good learning material proved very difficult, and this is why I've created this course. I'm hoping that you will get up to speed faster and with fewer issues than I did. So, join my courses and learn the fundamentals that will stand you in good stead going forward. The possibilities are endless.
