Testimonials

“John is an accomplished senior executive with extensive experience across human resources, organisational development and leadership as well as strategic planning and execution.”

Andrew Schuette

“In my culture, I was brought up to be quiet, deferential.  That was having a negative effect at work. People were taking advantage of me.  Working with John, I’ve learnt and practiced skills to speak up and be more confident.”

“I was being held back by my past. The voice in my head kept telling me I wasn’t good enough. The storytelling part of the John’s coaching was wrenching, but cathartic.  I am a strong and successful woman because of what I have been through”

“I was ready to move forward, so this program came at a great time.  Probably the best part was being able to confidently walk into job interviews, knowing who I was and what my story was. When you discover your purpose, it is a powerful thing.”

“I have become a better listener and more considered about the perspective of others. I don’t jump to conclusions as much anymore”

“At times in my life I thought I was losing my mind. The people and activities that I used to enjoy no longer interested me. I was getting angry and frustrated too easily.  I felt like I no longer fitted in. When John took me through the program it was a relief.  It was a very emotional experience. Since then, I’ve reset my expectations and my goals and not looked back”

“I did the coaching program for work, but it has also had a big impact at home.  Because of what I applied, I am a better parent after doing this program.”
