power of perception writers with Peter Wright

Peter Wright describes himself as a Spoken and Written Word Artist.  Through his speaking and writing, he helps people overcome adversity, thrive and lead extraordinary lives. He is also a somewhat eccentric, consistently contrarian and politically-incorrect blogger and an inspirational and entertaining speaker

Peter spent most of his life in Southern Africa. His corporate career included marketing management in large and small companies.

This was followed by establishing and running his own small factory and an export trading business. He travelled extensively in Southern and Central Africa until civil war in 2 major markets wiped out the export business.

Peter then became a farmer in Zimbabwe. In 2002 he became a casualty of the government's illegal and violent policy of driving commercial farmers off their farms. After holding out for 3 years, he was illegally detained by the Mugabe government, imprisoned and prevented from returning to his farm. Losing the farm and all his assets left him with no home, no income, no capital and no way to survive in that country

Arriving in Canada at age 54, with 2 suitcases and a horse saddle, Peter survived initially by helping farmers with greenhouse and irrigation work then started in Internet Marketing, writing, speaking and coaching.

Peter has been a horse owner all his life, played Polo-Crosse and Polo, run marathons and ultra-marathons. He now lives with his partner Sue, a dog and 6 cats in an 114 year old farmhouse near Woodstock. Peter and Sue have 4 children and 10 grandchildren scattered over 3 continents.

With his wide and deep experience of different cultures and his exposure to the good and bad extremes of human behaviour, Peter has a unique ability to help people find solutions in their personal and professional lives.
