The highlight for me was self-awareness and growth mindset, as this course taught me to introspect and contributed to my personal and personal growth.

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.

The highlight of my experience was learning about emotional intelligence, which has truly been on eye-opening journey that has facilitated tremendous personal growth. Additionally, creating a vision board has empowered me to prioritize and set meaningful goals.

Wikus Swanepoel

Manager-to-Leader Participant

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.

ERM

HR Director

“Innocente’s role at VentureWeb was focused on learning, of which an offshoot was performance management. We worked collaboratively to overhaul performance management throughout the organisation, across all levels, all departments and all geographies. This required changing mindsets around performance management, shedding old and traditional performance systems which were no longer relevant to our organisation, and ensuring the new program was underpinned by a strong foundation which drove the right behaviours and values. Innocente was integral to supporting the change management globally, and worked hard to ensure new ideologies were practically supported with the right technology. Innocente was a key contributor in this tinitiative and nurtured its success from beginning to end.”

“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.”

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.

Jacques Budler

Manager-to-Leader Participant

“Before I met Innocente, 2 years ago, the only way I knew how to articulate who I was and who the people around me were was in reference to personalities. Having worked with her in a personal and professional capacity for over a year, I have found that her method of communication and her strengths in coaching techniques allow for insight beyond what I am able to find on my own. I would recommend Innocente for anyone looking to understand themselves better to be an effective leader, empathic listener and energised performer. Emotional Intelligence is her forte!”
