It’s been a while, so let me properly re- introduce myself.

I’m Dana Hayes-Burke aka The Vision Builder. I am the Principal Consultant of DHB Vision Strategists—a CPD-certified consultancy firm working with organisations across the Caribbean.

I’m an International Business Strategist, Leadership Consultant and International Speaker, specialising in strategic development, people development and leadership development.

My work spans two key areas:

✔️ Business strategy for MSMEs—helping entrepreneurs move from working in their businesses to thinking and operating strategically.

✔️ People and leadership development for larger organisations—strengthening the leaders, teams and cultures that drive organisational performance.

At the heart of my work is one goal:
Creating strategic shifts that produce significant results in organisational culture and the bottom line.

I’m also a published academic, with research featured in the International Journal of Globalization and Small Business, and my ongoing research explores multigenerational diversity within Caribbean workplaces.

Strategy. People. Leadership. Research. Results.

That’s the intersection where I do my best work.

And if you’re new here, welcome. I’m Dana.

Let’s connect.

As we start a new week, I’m pulling a snippet from what I shared at Empowered 2026.

Here’s your question of the week:

Am I building what I truly want—or am I just on the hamster wheel?

Autopilot can be useful sometimes. But when you stay in that mode for too long, you run the risk of moving constantly without actually moving forward.

And eventually… you crash.

The truth is, better decisions are prompted by better questions.

I’ve built my work around asking the questions that help my clients see what they may be missing, challenge what they’ve always assumed, and ultimately make better strategic decisions.

So before you rush into another week of doing, pause and ask:

Is what I’m doing actually taking me where I want to go?

And then—be honest about the answer.

That answer just might be the reset your business needs.

Thank you, EmpowerED Childcare Conference, for the invitation to serve your community at Empowered 2026.

Are you struggling because people think your offerings are too expensive? The issue might be your positioning or clarity. Even during a recession, people buy what they need and consider essential. If your sales are down, it's time to understand why customers choose you and refine what you offer.

Sunday Lesson Series #1: People value what they pay for.

Last year, I visited the Louvre and, like thousands of other people, joined the queue to see the Mona Lisa. We navigated crowded halls, stood shoulder to shoulder with strangers, and patiently waited for a glimpse of one of the most famous paintings in the world.

What struck me was this: the Mona Lisa has its own space. People pay to enter the museum, invest time waiting in line, and make the effort to see it because it is considered valuable.

But imagine if they took the original painting and hung it outside for anyone to walk up to whenever they pleased. Would people still value it in the same way?

I doubt it.

And somewhere in that is an important lesson: people value what they pay for.

As we grow, build expertise, and work hard to create something meaningful, we have to be careful not to diminish our own worth by making ourselves too accessible or giving away everything without boundaries.

The truth is, people often take their cues from us. They value what we value.

Know your worth. Protect what you have worked hard to build. Honour your experience. Guard your gifts.

Something to think about this Sunday.

Every now and again, you get reminders of the work that you are doing. Work that lasts takes time, commitment and personal responsibility.
