Paradigm Shift

Eight years ago, I experienced a few ordinary moments that profoundly shifted the way I saw my business and my life. Sitting in a café one morning, I watched people rush by, trapped in a cycle of exchanging precious hours for a paycheck. Soon after, near a welfare office, I noticed others structuring their lives around the bare minimum, surviving but never truly thriving. Then, late one evening after a business function, I saw people living rough, struggling just to meet their basic needs. These encounters shook me awake, compelling me to ask myself honestly: Does my business give me the freedom it promised, or am I stuck in my own version of survival mode?

The uncomfortable truth hit home I was exhausted, stressed, and spinning my wheels just to stay afloat. As a business owner, I juggled every responsibility, from CEO to admin, paying myself last and secretly worrying about losing it all. I was the homeless man in a suit, the welfare recipient without leisure, the worker with no clock-off time. That harsh clarity was my Paradigm Shift moment. That clarity sparked a complete transformation in my approach to business and life. Today, I share my story not just as reflection but as an invitation to help you find your own turning point and build a business that works for you.

Ando and I are part of a business group for many years. I found his balanced and thoughtful approach to business both practical and forward-thinking. Ando without doubt will bring valuable insight to anyone in need of sound strategic business direction or insight in directing their business to successful and sustainable growth.

Kelly Parker - Director, Murfett Legal

I have been a CFO for listed companies for over 15 years and Ando is one of those people that can challenge the way you think. We often have lively discussions, mainly agree and sometimes, Ando has a different way of thinking about a situation and you get one of those light bulb moments. One area we often talk about is succession planning and how the business owner needs to focus on educating and training their key staff. Ando has years of experience in this area and now, running several businesses, is still able to work less than 20 hours a week.

Joseph Ohayon - Director, The CFO Centre

Ando's mentorship goes beyond just business advice. He instils a sense of confidence and purpose that has been crucial for my professional development. His approach is quite effective in breaking down complex operational challenges and guiding me to solutions that drive efficiency and growth. He’s helped me develop a clearer vision and the tools to execute it, which has led to significant improvements in our team’s productivity and overall business performance.
