Two Signature Programmes

​

1. The Skilled Communicator is a two-day programme enhancing the written and presentation skills for professionals.  I do this by blending elements of personal coaching and sharing personalised feedback with each participant.   Participants have learned how to overcome their limiting beliefs in writing and presenting to be more impactful while remaining authentic.  

 

2. Claim Your Career Confidence = Perspective + Priorities + Prospects 
This two-day  programme is about coaching mid-career professionals to unlearn and re-learn new ways of accelerating the job search process.
