What previous participants have said about the Performance Coach Training course:
"The course was exceptionally well structured. I did an immense amount of research prior to registering - including having career transition coaching. This programme was suggested to me as (and I quote) 'the most kosher one out there'! Carol’s publications (both her excellent book and article I read) also added weight and credibility.
James has been a superb choice for leading the course. His sense of humour, professionalism, competence and sensitivity shone through on all occasions. You need someone like James to run this course - he's down to earth, friendly and accessible, by phone and email. The support was wonderful. I never felt overwhelmed or without guidance. Thank you.
This is the kind of course that changes lives. Simple, well thought out and delivered beautifully. Bravo!"
- Mandy Lehto, Performance Coach and Development Professional
"As a result of the programme I personally have addressed issues with a team member, started jogging and discussed work stream issues with my manager - all resulting in positive outcomes. I have used my new skills to coach people within the workplace and have a queue of people waiting."
- David Cooper
“The course was excellent. It was enlightening, exciting and life changing. It was highly professionally run, inspirational, informative and with a great bunch of people. I was particularly impressed by the level of integrity exhibited by all concerned.”
- Felicity Hawkins, Communications Consultant
"An excellent course on Mentoring and Coaching – you delivered the material in a way that made me comfortable to participate fully, you made learning fun. I gained so much that has been of practical use already. I am now much better equipped to help staff"
- Mark Large NHS
"I found the course a really fulfilling and motivating experience. At the end of four days I felt that I had acquired some really valuable new skills to help me as a leader as well as an insight that coaching as a model might help to drive forward the aims of my organisation. The whole experience was engaging and refreshing." - Graham Silverthorne, Head Teacher, Gordano School, Portishead
"The course was excellent, not only did it provide a really thorough grounding in coaching skills, it also taught me a lot about myself. Putting the coaching into practice has been a truly uplifting experience both for myself and for my volunteer coachee."
- Caroline Hart, St Marys Trust
"I would recommend this programme to anyone interested in coaching. The materials are very readable and a useful resource; the trainers were fantastic and very willing to share experiences with us, and we got loads of time to practice. This learning was reinforced by the break before the final day when we were tasked with more practice. Superb!"
- Janet Bell - Director HR Matters
