What is your experience?I have a corporate career of over twenty years, holding senior positions. I have coached and mentored teams and individuals, a part of the job I really loved. My teams included direct reports of 12 people and the bigger department of over 200 people. A lot of my role was to be the enabler for my leaders and managers to manage their teams effectively. I've always cared about people and their well-being at work, I believe everyone is here to make a valuable contribution to the world, however large or small. In 2015 I completed a Yoga Teacher Training in Portland, Oregon which brought a different aspect to working with people. In 2023 I completed Meditation Teacher Training, both accredited with the Yoga Alliance. I'm training as a life coach, although my work is not focussing on coaching. I have continuous education with the volunteer organisation I work for, which includes a recent module I completed on non-violent communication. My personality type with Myers Briggs is an ENFP, and I'm a Manifesting Generator of Human Design. As an entrepreneur you have to have a strong self reliance, the unknown and belief. I enjoy discussing the qualities needed to succeed in the world of entrepreneurship. I have a library of books and podcasts I recommend to my clients.
