“The coaching programme opened my eyes to reaching my potential. As I coached the GEE team leaders, I saw them also reach deep realisations about how to turn their self-imposed obstacles into stepping stones.” Yugdeep Thapa, Ministry of Social Development, NZ
“Working in the public sector can be challenging. I found this course invaluable to helping my colleagues navigate their way through tight deadlines and ever-changing priorities – while maintaining good wellbeing!” Celeste Derozier, Department of Conservation, NZ
“The course coincided with a sudden change in job role where I had to manage our technical delivery team. While I’ve had team leader roles and done coaching in the past, this course completely changed my approach and coaching methodology. As I learned, I shaped and changed the interactions with my team. By the end of the year, executives in other business units were enquiring about the profound changes they observed in my team’s performance, engagement, and attitude. Within 6 months they literally went from the team nobody wanted to work with to being our star performers” Joel Arcus, Management Consultant, South Africa
