Next time someone tells you that making money isn't a matter of mindset, ask them how much they earn. ​ I see out there many people following advice from people that have zero skin in the game. Accountants that tell you to do X, Y, Z, with your investments… but they don’t have any investments. Or accountants that tell you that you shouldn’t create a company and remain as a sole entrepreneur because it’s simpler… but they use a company. Traders that provide courses and make zero dollars doing traders… 100% of revenues providing courses. I always got fascinated by professors in MBA schools that were teaching “business”, but they haven’t created any. Now, it’s the social media.

A plant capable of producing 150 billion litres of drinking water every...
Once, a government decided to build an airport for the future. Not for the demand it had. For the future. Montréal’s existing airport was becoming busy, and passenger numbers were growing rapidly. You know… Expo, Olympic Games… So Canada did what governments are often tempted to do. It thought big. Very big. The new Montréal–Mirabel Airport was intended to become one of the largest airports in the world. I repeat. In the world. The government expropriated approximately 400km2 of land… larger...
A client once asked me: What does good governance actually look like? I did not take long to draft a response. It’s something asked many times… Especially, when things start to get wrong. Well, it starts with experienced people. Period. And… People who bring different perspectives. People capable of overseeing an executive team without trying to become the executive team. Look. Governance is not day-to-day management. It is challenge. Support. Direction. And intervention when required....
