“I had the privilege of getting to know Innocente during her Gallup Strengths Coaches training. From the start, it was clear that she is extremely passionate about helping her clients become the best they can be. Her commitment to understanding how people think, feel and behave is beyond impressive. It is inspiring. I have no doubt that she is a great coach to have.”
I would have no hesitation to recommend Inspired Leadership to others in my field.
The course offers valuable tips and tools for personal and professional growth, focused on enhancing interpersonal skills and self-awareness.
This course stood out with its integration of online tools, setting it apart from traditional book-based courses. The biggest takeaway for me was on self-awareness and performance management, offering rich and well-curated content.
Many people ask this question when dealing with professional coaches, leadership or business mentors… "But what qualifies them to teach me things?" In this case for the first time since (in my experience of such) while working with Innocente, she has given me an authentic no holds barred approach to perspective and challenging me in important views of business, life and all the facets thereof. She doesn’t claim to be a Forbes CEO because if that where the case how would she then be able to stand removed and give true perspective? You can’t see it clearly always if you are part of it….What separates Innocente in my experience is her authentic and genuine understanding of what her parameters and boundaries on that basis are.
I value you deeply and am excited for the robust and thought provoking conversations ahead.
Where is the 5 star button?
Amazing coaching experience. Innocente has the ability, as coach, to prompt the right conversation that makes one access those aha moments naturally and easily.
I recently did the Gallop Strengths test with her, which she helped me unpack in such understandable, practical and easy fashion - this made me realise that, what I thought was “wrong” with me, is actually what is “right” with me. Since then, being aware of my strengths (and certain blind spots), made me more confident in my job, and in general. I would recommend Innocent in a heartbeat!
Innocente is a passionate and energetic speaker who will leave audiences motivated to take on Monday's with more enthusiasm and less dread. Reframing Mondays into days of purpose is Innocentes strength. I highly recommend her as a speaker, facilitator and MC. She will enliven your team and fuel you for a motivated week.
In 2021 we decided to add the Emerging Leaders journey from Inspired Leadership to our early career professionals development. This unusual, but highly effective approach has had an excellent impact and we are now deploying all four paths of the Emerging Leader journey in the Africa Business Unit. This consulting relationship resulted in our Africa business moving from the bottom of the engagement pile to the top not only in our EMEA region but globally.
“I had the pleasure of working with Innocente during my tenure at VentureWeb. Even though she worked in a different division to me, I was always inspired by her consistently high levels of positive energy. I worked closely with Innocente on a specific project at VentureWeb. There, I experienced first-hand how Innocente is a ‘go-getter’ and a determined vision-centric achiever. She places the client first and carefully aligns her interactions with the business's goals. Maintaining a focus on quality and understanding of what her clients require, Innocente balances her service delivery with her experience and specialist acumen in her field. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Innocente for the positive impact she has had on me, and I do not hesitate to recommend Innocente.”
Innocente is a well-prepared, lively and engaging speaker. I met her at a presentation that looked into the interface between human resources and design thinking output. It was enjoyable and easy to tap into her wealth of experience and knowledge about people, behaviour, performance and science. Dealing with her is an energizing experience and you will walk away with practical solutions to try out, at the very least with some substantial food for thought.
