Professional: If you think I might be able to help you in your work, in this section
you will find a bit of background and where to get my CV.

|
Family: I would not have been able to offer the ideas on this website had it not been
for the encouragement of my family. Here you'll find some news about them that
may be of interest to friends.
|
|
|
Seeds, plants and souls: As a Christian and a forester, I have found Jesus'
parables fascinating. Over the years I have explored possible parallels of growth in
the natural and spiritual worlds.
|
|
|
Cross-balance: Understanding my own and other people's personalities is a topic I
have found fascinating. I've summarised the many theories in graphical form, from
both a physical and spiritual perspective.
|
|
|
Whole resources: In my work, I have encountered a range of development theories,
sometimes confusing and seemingly different. To clarify matters, I have attempted
to synthesise them into one highly visual framework. It could be a useful analytical
tool for you.

|
|
Mind-mapping: This educational technique has been immensely useful in my
work, especially using the MindManager software. I have summarised some of my
experiences, examples to look at, and practical suggestions on how to use the
software.

|
Phrase-profiling: I have always been dismayed at the amount of information
there
is to read, and interested in any techniques that can help people to understand and
remember what they have read. My suggestion is described here. Try it out.

|
|
Visualisation: Finding new, visual ways of presenting information has always been
of interest, in particular animation clips that are educational. I've summarised some
ideas and given examples, in case others find it of interest.
|
|
|
Forest Myth-conceptions: The debate about tropical forests has generated a lot of
conflicting ideas and information. In my work I have had to clarify these. This
section highlights a few misconceptions, in non-technical terms.
|
|
|
Study-notes: As I have helped to run training courses and provide advice, I have
written easy-to-read notes to clarify various topics related to forestry in general.
You can identify the titles that are of interest and obtain them from me.

|
|
Tricks of the trade: During my forestry work in developing countries, friends and
I
have learnt lots of small lessons (often nothing to do with trees) that have had a big
effect on the success of our work. Some of them might help you.

|
Must Read: Everyone has their favourite books, websites, etc that they have found
particularly interesting or useful. Here are some of mine, mostly related to forestry.
