Famine, Feast & Tax Bills

Famine, Feast & Facilites Management

In this episode of Famine, Feast & Tax Bills, I’m joined by the brilliant Maxine my ski buddy, a powerhouse in facilities management, and the founder of MCFM Global Academy. Maxcene is a living example of what happens when you stop looking sideways at what everyone else is doing, and start building from what you already know. She took decades of “day job” expertise; and turned it into something that creates impact far beyond her own career. A global training platform designed to upskill and qualify professionals in mobilisation, transition, and transformation. Maxcene is a huge believer in an abundance mindset, something she had to learn along the way. This episode will be a reminder that your answer might already be in front of you.
