http://about.me/annapollockOften described as being irrepressibly curious and creative, "ahead of her time", and a "visionary", I see myself as a change agent whose mission is to help clients and colleagues prepare for a very different future. My passion is helping create positive workplace cultures that foster curiosity, creativity and collaboration. I try to live the mantra "winning by sharing" as I believe there is more than enough work that needs to be done and none of us really "own" ideas - we are merely antennae. The core task is to be receptive and to know whom to engage in implementation. These attributes are expressed in my work as strategic consultant/advisor; international speaker, business developer, coach and author. I enjoy making complex subjects accessible and easier to comprehend, asking the right questions and approaching tired and worn subjects with fresh eyes by asking the right questions.My current focus is the development of a movement called Conscious Travel - a viable alternative to mass industrialised tourism that is commoditising all it touches. There is a growing section of the travel market that are making mindful, informed choices, redefining luxury and value, seeking meaning ad purpose from their experiences, wanting to put something back and expecting suppliers to show they care.Specialties: Strategy, business concepts and planning, analysis, communication, public speaking, preparing business cases, teaching, coaching.All my slides and presentations are on Slideshare here: www.slideshare.net/AnnaP. Here's a random selection.

FounderConscious.Travel Jan 2010 - PresentConscious Travel is a movement that enables places to attract and welcome guests in a manner that does not cost the earth. It is designed to help develop a network of Conscious Hosts - businesses whose leaders put Higher Purpose ahead of profit; generate net benefit for all stakeholders affected by their business; demonstrate conscious leadership skills and have created a culture that cares. Conscious Travel is also a call to those working in the travel industry who want to be more; believe tourism can be a positive change agent; who want to find meaning and purpose in their work; who want to generate real, net benefits for the host community while creating sustainable incomes and healthy profits. It is a movement inspired by members of the Conscious Capitalist alliance and the many small tourism enterprises committed to acting responsibly.
