"The Diploma is stimulating, challenging and enjoyable. It provides participants with a deep and unique insight into how other people think and feel. It is the equivalent of reading a library of good novels. The learning is not just academic and theoretical but also practical and personal. As a result, I understand myself better."

"The format and approach used by Jenny Stacey and other faculty, with the strong emphasis on the psychological dimensions of coaching, together with the support of other participants, got me out of my comfort zone and really helped develop me as an executive coach.”

"Having qualified as a chartered accountant, and completed a PhD in Accounting, I wanted to learn more about the soft side of business. I qualified in Business & Executive Coaching and Advanced Business & Executive Coaching, before completing Team Coaching to obtain a MSc Business & Executive Coaching. Team Coaching provided me with the tools and best practices which I use in board-of-directors’ training assignments. I feel I am now more self-aware and sensitive to other people.”

"On completing the diploma programme, I look back on an amazing self-discovery journey, it provided me with this deeper understanding of myself and an increased awareness of others. From a professional aspect, it has helped me with my clients tremendously in addressing both the emotional and psychological aspects of their challenges.”
