About

A collective crusade to champion productivity during work hours and discover what “Bolognese time” means to us all. Bringing individuals and businesses together to lead us into a new era.


New Zealand born, Kaz, (Karen Maurice-O’Leary), is an ex-advertising industry global award winner with over 20 years in the business.

Widowed in her thirties, she learnt the harsh lesson of putting work before her marriage, nearly missing the last meal with her husband before losing him in an accident. That meal was his home cooked Bolognese.

Openly sharing her story as a keynote speaker globally, pre pandemic to corporates, she has now evolved it into a philosophy to help reset and realign an overworked world.

Phase one is a Workplace Agreement and Personal Guardian Oath to protect time, align hearts and lead each other to be present for what matters most.
