Wondering Who I Am?...

My name is Derik Mocke. I like to describe myself as an energetic, purpose driven, educated, present moment, emotionally aware, fun loving professional life coach, group coach, motivator, father and marathon runner.

My life purpose is to help people, groups and companies to find their energy and zest for life.

Professionally...

I obtained my Bachelor degree at the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa…yes I am South African. My experience in people development started in 1993 at a national training center for adventure based experiential facilitators.

I’ve spent a year in the United Kingdom in 1997, where I’ve worked with Vision Development Training in facilitating team development programs for various European companies.

In 1998 I helped launch the Team and Leadership Development Center in Pretoria, where I facilitated people development programs which included leadership, team building, and emotional intelligence.

During my time there I co-facilitated with more than 30 different facilitators from various backgrounds.

In 2002, I’ve helped launch the renowned Pecos River training brand in South Africa and set up the change division within Aon Consulting.

I am currently working as a coach to help individuals, teams and companies with motivation.

I believe that change and growth is a constant process that happens over time. I get a kick out of helping individuals, teams and companies achieve just that.

Although I am South African, I have helped companies in Africa, the Middle East, India and the UK with employee motivation.

Personally...

I believe that every event in life is an opportunity for growth. I’ve spent the last 10 years living that philosophy. In 1998, I’ve started road running. Since then I have completed over 40 marathons.

I believe that all people have the wisdom, courage, creativity and energy to take on any challenge that is holding them back in reaching their true potential.

About This Site...

I’ve decided to start this site to share my experiences of employee motivation.

Although the main focus will be on employee motivation, you will find lots of information on personal development as well. I truly believe that individual motivation precedes employee motivation.

You will find a combination of my own experiences and stuff that I’ve learned from other people on this site.

I am well aware that I don’t have all the answers on employee motivation, so feel free to add your comments and experiences here.

Well, there you have it. I hope you enjoy reading the articles as much as I enjoy writing them.
