About Tidimalo Shabalala

Many life-altering experiences have inspired me to create a connection to educate and inform through Social Innovation.

 

Communication is the most potent way to enlighten people and exchange information. Finding creative ways to enhance and broaden a brand message opens endless opportunities.

 

The most inspiring part is opening multiple connections and creating a space to become socially innovative. Taking inspiration from my different walks of life and personal experiences has allowed me to fully become entrenched in creating solutions with a long-term impact.

I have over 14 years of experience as a PR Consultant with expertise working with local HK and South African entrepreneurs.

 

Some of my proudest moments have been facilitating ways of collaborating for creatives in HK and SA, creating virtual and onsite workshops for small business owners, and creating a self-help ‘ Brand Enhancement’ booklet to help entrepreneurs explore brand enhancement and strategic communication with limited budgets.

 

I look forward to being part of the journey with start-ups, medium-sized businesses, or even that dreamer with an idea who needs some support to start!

#MyVoice Vol.5: Inspiring Stories of Hope, Courage & Fearlessness

Co-Author of A collective Memoir By Women of Substance

Finding your voice can mean speaking out loud!

I am forever proud to be one of the ladies who contributed to a chapter called ‘Belonging’ in the My Voice Vol. In chapter 21, I share some of my funniest and defining moments as a mum and wife who moved abroad with my beautiful 10-month-old and 6-year-old South African babies.

The belonging part is the path I found, connections, and people who made a difference in my life.

Twenty-one women from across the world who have written in this book were determined not to be beaten by obstacles placed in their path but instead, face their adversity and create positive outcomes.

Tidi Consulting was invited to the University of Johannesburg as a guest lecturer for the year 1 Public Relations class.
The lecture was an eye-opening experience and a sharing session for the students. The key topic discussed was Global Communication and how to create a PR plan that is informed, structured, and showcases global understanding for clients.

In December 2022, Tidi Consulting hosted its first-ever Online Brand Enhancement Workshop to create fresh brand enhancement ideas; that small business owners could use to kickstart their 2023 marketing plans.
The concept was to bring in global experts in the Communications industry from Hong Kong and South Africa who would be able to create a workshop. The aim was to foster collaboration with small business owners, and the communications industry. 


The workshop was a great success, and over 22 small business owners from HK and South Africa participated in the zoom session.

Tidi Consulting had the honor of being one of the keynote speakers at the ‘My Voice’ Forum, which was hosted by a Singapore publishing house and featured speakers and guests from around the world. The forum emphasized the importance of telling your story to small business owners.
The session was a great platform to connect with like-minded ladies worldwide and emphasize that everyone has a valid story and should find the courage to share.

Tidi, the founder of Tidi Consulting, was invited to Moderate the 2023 Trade and Investment Seminar hosted by @brandsouthafrica and the South African Consulate.
The seminar was part of South Africa’s heritage celebrations and promoted relations between Hong Kong SAR and South African business investment sectors.

Tidi Consulting partnered with a local Hong Kong Digital Company, Wresonate Media, to host a Digital Growth workshop on 21 June 2023.
The aim was to conduct an in-person coaching session to advise and inform Hong Kong-based small businesses on how to take small steps toward enhancing their branding strategy.
The session was a great success, with over 20 small business owners in attendance. Tidi Consulting and Wresonate Media Founder also created a working booklet.
The booklet aimed to provide the attendees with valuable insights and exercises that they could use to improve their digital growth.
