Coaching
"Kindness is the force that draws us together" - Nick CaveKindness has had a marked and meaningful impact in my life. One of my personal goals is to show gratitude to everyone who has ever helped me by helping others - mentoring is one way I strive to do that.I've had many experiences throughout my life, lived through a lot and made a lot of mistakes. Sharing these, and my learnings, has proven helpful to people in the past.My coaching style is flexible and generally informal - I believe a lot can be learnt and shared by having great conversations, providing people with the space to talk, share and feel listened to.Feel free to get in touch if you want to have an information conversation on how I can help or if any of the following topics are of interest:Customer Success, Leadership, Hiring Practices, Working in Start-ups, Confidence, Managing Change, People Management or Diversity & InclusionWarmest,
