December 2022 | NEWSLETTER

Dear TVDM Consultant client

And just like that, we are in the last month of 2022!

For us at TVDM Consultants, we sure had an exciting year. From having Nicole (Nel), Kyle and Tashreeq join our team; to a round table discussion with various stakeholders, including the DA Shadow Minister of Human Settlements and the CSOS Chief Ombud; to the “post COVID” return of physical events, namely, the Let’s Get Physical event, which was hosted in Cape Town and Pretoria, and the NAMA National Conference held in Stellenbosch; all whilst continuing to provide various resources to the industry, such as our webinars, blog posts and newsletters; not to mention our “actual day job” assisting our consulting clients with their various issues. We are truly #Blessed.

None of this would be possible without each and every one of you providing your tremendous support throughout the year.

We already have so much to look forward to in 2023 and cannot wait to be back after a well-deserved break.

Please note that our webinar will be earlier in the month than usual and will take place on: Thursday 8 December at 10am. Click here to register for the webinar; space is limited, so register soon to avoid disappointment.

We hope that everyone is able to take a well-deserved rest this festive season and spend some quality time with family and friends.

The TVDM Consultants’ team will be doing just that. Please bear with us as we will have a skeleton staff from 19 December to 21 December, as well as 9 January to 13 January, and note that our offices will be closed from 22 December and will reopen on 9 January.

A powerful quote to end the year off: “Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.” - Hal Borland
