Our Purpose

To create Live-Giving Learning experiences through inspirational Coaching, Facilitation and Training.

Our Philisophy

We envision a world where people Live, Lead and Learn with Passion and Purpose.

We do this by :

Facilitating Conversations and Programmes which brings Joy of Self-Expression, Learning and Discovery.
Partnering with organizations in creating Leadership Development programmes and Organizational Interventions to develop Listening and Learning Organizations.
Developing Personal Development programmes that result in Individuals a greater Clarity, Congruence, Confidence and Commitment to Living out a Life of Purpose & Passion.

The Key Beliefs that underpin our approach with clients are:

Organizational development begins with the development of the Individual.

The Power of One underpins our approach. We believe that every individual has the unlimited potential, inner wisdom and power to transform themselves, their team and beyond. Alignment with the organization is possible when there is congruence in the individuals' aspirations, values, thoughts, feelings with their work and their personal life.

Each person possesses his/her own Inner Wisdom.

Our experience shows that enabling people to arrive at their own answers has far more profound effect than telling people what they should do. We especially believe in the power of peer-sharing and capitalizing on the power of group dynamics to create change in individuals. We offer Powerful Questions and Strategies but we always honour the Choices that each person has. When the individual makes choices freely and out of his personal insight and wisdom, that creates personal responsibility and fuels the commitment to make lasting changes.

Inspir-action creates Lasting Change

Inspiration combined with Action creates transformational results. Our programmes inspire individuals to be a master of his own inspiration – to connect with his sources of strength, motivation, inspiration to create and to move to action.

Change lies in the heart of Conversation.
In our Organisational Interventions, Facilitation, Training and Coaching, we create safe spaces for people to speak deeply about what they most care about at work. We use proven methods to enable full participation and surface the underlying assumptions and beliefs individuals and teams are holding about themselves, their organization and what they want achieve. Shifting perspectives and creating new perspectives is the focus of these conversations.

Enthusiasm – we use energy and joy to create what we care most about

Authenticity – we work and live in alignment with our values

Care – we honour and take care of our whole self – Physically, Intellectually, Emotionally and Spiritually
