In today's fast-paced and highly competitive world, it's no longer enough to just be smart or technically savvy. Success, in large part, depends on our emotional intelligence—that is, our ability to understand, manage, and use our emotions in positive ways to relieve stress, communicate effectively, empathise with others, overcome challenges, and defuse conflicts. But how does one go about honing...

Diversity and Inclusion - Expected Norms in Today's world? Thankfully we live in different times to when many of us were brought up and these terms are often thrown around without a real understanding.

Ever thought about building your own “Bucket List” for dealing with your Adversity? I recently did a set of workshops in Dealing with Adversity, a compelling reflective set of workshops. After exploring our life journeys and the Adversity, we have all had to deal with, I felt it would be a good idea that the group would benefit from creating...

It is a fascinating experience reflecting on yourself and how you react in different situations with different people. What is even more fascinating is where it comes from. Every one of us is unique, and exploration with our thoughts, feelings and behaviours is just the most incredible journey. I have had some amazing sessions with clients, and seriously the WOW...

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is essential if, as a coach, we want to develop.
