After Johan Beukes matriculated in 1996 at Bloemfontein Sentraal, he studied Theology at the University of the Freestate. While studying, Johan took a year off to launch his modeling career, which afforded him the opportunity to work with well-known model agency, Storm. A highlight of that year was his invitation by Ford, to visit New York City. Another accomplishment he fondly remembers is his international modeling recognition, which allowed Johan to travel to Barcelona, Europe.
Following an exhilarating year of traveling and modeling, Johan finished his Degree in Theology at University of the Free State. He then proceeded with an Honours Degree in Industrial Psychology at the University of North West and was also accredited at the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) as a Psychometrist. Johan then completed his M-Phil at the University of Johannesburg focusing on Personal and Professional Leadership. Complementing his studies, the Potchefstroom VIP Coaching Institute accredited him as a qualified Life and Business Coach.
At this stage, Johan is busy with his Doctorate Degree in Developmental Psychology with the theme: “Facilitation of Awareness in the choice of a marital partner”. He also focuses on the New Generation group, at Mosaiek where he plays a leadership role and coaches his team to become better and positive leaders. He also enjoys writing and has contributed articles to publications such as, Vrouekeur, Weigh Less, Manna, echurch and Passi. Recently, Johan was chosen as a semi-finalist for the Mr. South Africa 2009 pageant and hopes to make a positive contribution and impact.
Additionally, Johan is involved with the South African Leaders Forum and he is a senior facilitator with the IGUBU-company (reconciliation facilitation on student campuses). He adds value (developing and presenting certain modules) in a mastersprogram for leadership at University of Johannesburg. Johan is passionate about public speaking on topics such as career vs. calling, potential development, career coaching, how to find meaning in your life and many more. He regularly speaks at Mosaiek, women day events, team building sessions, motivational speaking sessions etc.
At home, Johan enjoys spending time with his wife, Huibreth, and likes a good book to relax. He is adventurous as well and enjoys the outdoors.
One of his favourite quotes: “The leader teaches more through Being than through doing. The quality of one’s silence conveys more than long speeches.” – John Heider
