elevating leaders to the next level...

Testimonials

We are more aligned, focused and have a better understanding of how to be effective leaders. Thank you for your support.

I have been able to quite quickly achieve clarity and a sense of purpose around what my goals are. This has made it a lot easier to make decisions on where I should be focussing my time and what career decisions I should make. The clarity has provided a sense of relief by taking away the ‘noise’.

Rachael has a unique and vibrant way in which she engages an audience and individuals to set and achieve goals and it is always a pleasure working with her.

Being on a journey with Rachael is like standing in front of a mirror with a warm hand on my shoulder. Rachael is direct but kind. She is bold but nurturing. And simply, she makes it her business to see people discover their best selves.

Rachael has worked with a number of colleagues at various organisations for me. I have seen great growth in these colleagues as a result of the sessions they have had with Rachael.

The coaching, enthusiasm and insight Rachael provided me throughout my journey, has not only enabled me to discover a great deal about myself but more importantly made me conscious and able to refocus on how I can progress positive change. I have felt comfortable and inspired since our first meeting and the momentum continues today. A motivating learning experience for me – Thank you.

I have learned and grown so much in the 90 days. I think the thing I got out the most is the connection with my one up manager. Sharing my journey on what I have learned and what I’m delivering has developed a working connection.

You are a legend. Thank you so much for facilitating our goal setting day. You really do have a gift with people. Thank you again.

Rachael opened my mind to possibilities I hadn’t even considered. She helped me explore my values, understand my personal and professional purpose and be confident that I can make the right choices to balance what I initially felt were conflicting aspirations. Thanks Rachael.

Just a quick note to let you know how much we appreciated and enjoyed your presentations at our recent WCN networking breakfasts. You might be interested to know that at the May breakfast we had a record attendance with over 160 guests and that you are the first speaker we have asked back due to such an overwhelming interest. The response has been phenomenal and the evaluation forms 100% positive! You will be a tough act for others to follow.

I delegate better, I communicate better and I’m more strategic and less reactive. The program and the tools provide lifelong benefits.

Overall I’ve learned that setting up a strategic calendar and implementing it is an agile approach to improve my leadership skills particularly in terms of continuous improvement and change readiness. Furthermore, the course provided end to end practical tools to articulate my career goals.

I’ve learned the importance of strategic planning that aligns branch and divisional objectives and how crucial recurring calendar meetings are to ensure that my direct reports feel informed and supported. I’ve also learned how to raise my profile in the organisation and communicate my intended career trajectory.

Setting up these key management systems has helped me lead a team of 70 more effectively. The Strategic Communication Strategy, the Structured 1-to-1 Meetings Template and the Strategic Meetings Calendar have been very powerful. It led me to enrol 12 leaders in my team in this program.

I understand that being organised is a key step...it’s important to set time for myself to plan and take control of my own leadership. Also, the importance of meetings with purpose, being accountable and having regular catch ups to allow for staff to share their challenges and goals.

I was pleasantly surprised to understand how my team views some of my key strengths. I feel more confident in acknowledging that I have some great skills in Leadership and that these will help to build a good culture around the team.
