Welcome to another Success Tips Newsletter

It is now only a few days away from Mothers’ Day 2009! 

I thought that I would include a photo of my precious kids and my handsome husband! This was taken on Easter Sunday at our Church’s Celebration in a local park.

I can say that I am extremely proud to be the mum of these two young people.
I am also proud of my own mum. She has always been there for me, through ups and downs – through good times and some not so good!

I believe that mums are a special gift that God gives to us.
I have discovered over the years, that even in situations where we may not have a mum, we need not despair. if we look around us then we can often find a precious woman who is only too happy to befriend us.
Or even a situation where we can befriend a younger woman who does not have the support and love of a mum. We can reach out to those around us and fill a gap by showing kindness and love!

I would encourage you this Mothers’ Day to see whom you can reach out to and show some kindness.

Okay let’s look now at our Success Tip for this week, which comes from a mother and a successful business woman.

Success Tip

Today's success tip comes from Katherine Edgar.                  

In 1999, Katherine founded The Synergy Group, an international professional services firm that operates in 23 Asia-Pacific cities. The Group recently extended its reach to two emerging economic powerhouses, India and China.

How has becoming a mother changed the way you see and develop your business? Katherine Edgar

Before my beautiful baby daughter, Akira, arrived, my partner and I assured ourselves constantly that life would not substantially change once our little bundle of joy had arrived. I mean, how hard could it really be? Oh, how silly we were!

The funny thing is that before becoming pregnant, everyone always said, 'This business is so much your baby'. It is only now, as a mother, that I realise just how accurate a comment that was, even if my colleagues and friends did not realise it.

In the same way that we raise and nurture a child, I learnt that the good parenting of my business in those early years meant that stepping aside from that 24/7 role to have my child was entirely possible.

Nothing prepares a woman for the impact of her first child. It is a wonderful and humbling experience. Early in my pregnancy, we arranged for me to have a nanny three days a week so that, in part, I would be able to continue the same degree of control over my business (my other baby).

What I have learnt in the first few months of being a mother is how to delegate and outsource. Becoming a mother has forced me to step away and allow the business to grow and flourish without me. My wonderful staff members have had to make key decisions and judgments without my input.

The lesson I have learnt - and it is a wonderful one - is that by laying the foundations for a healthy business I could retain the control and direction from a distance, while still being a devoted mother.
