Executive coach, teacher, advisor, authorMel Brooks is a seasoned consultant in enterprise development. He has behind him 20 years at the Wits Business School in Johannesburg, in particular at its Centre for Developing Business, where he was developing and delivering programmes about business start-ups and business financial management long before the acronym SMME was even coined. Workshops, training, one-on-one advisory sessions, media articles, radio host, text book author – Mel has done it all, and all in the field of business development. Since 2007 Mel has made a name for himself with his executive coaching practice, and in particular his workshop series on operational finance – Finance for Non-Financial Managers. Like the rest of us, Mel Brooks has also clawed his way across the coal face of entrepreneurship, and lost his grip a couple of times. Which means that he can walk the talk. He has both expertise and experience to share and has the right insight to help you keep on track in building your own business.
