It’s a Jungle out There

The Corporate Maze is an oft-tongue in cheek look at the corporate jungle as seen through the eyes of myself, Kyle Southam. I’m somewhere in my fifties and have been in the corporate world for 30+ years. I wouldn’t say I suffer from ADD, let’s say I’m blessed by it. This allows me to connect the disconnected and often look at the world from a different slant. As a stand up comic, I put a funny side to the all too serious stuffy corporate world.

I also spent 10 years as a front-line Ambulance officer so in time, I will build up a collection of anecdotes around time spent in the service.

I live in small New Zealand town of 3,000 people, just outside Wellington which is our nation’s capital city.

Why subscribe?

Why not? What else have you got to spend your money on? I could go on forever here, but if you are at work and get one of my emails coming through and it breaks the monotony of your day, then my job here is done. By subscribing I can let the thoughts that are inside my head make their way into yours and for me this. is cheaper than therapy. I do try and post several times a week. Some posts are serious where you might learn something, or might not. Either way, I learn a lot from writing my articles and love pushing them out there and polluting cyberspace.

As a paid subscriber you not only get the satisfaction of feeding my army of cats and seven cockroaches, but you get access to certain articles first, have the ability to comment and even suggest articles.

Sharing is Caring

I love it when people share my work. Sharing is caring and in this day and age this is one thing you can share without catching anything or paying for a doctor’s visit. Share it with your friend, an enemy, your boss or even gift it to your granny for her birthday as nothing says happy birthday to an octogenarian like a subscription to the Corporate Maze.
