“Leaders Who Coach™ has been a game-changer for me. It transformed the way I conduct meetings and 1-to-1 conversations. I wanted to feel much more confident that I have the tools to lead a conversation to long-term positive outcomes through a more human, empathetic approach — that telling someone to do something won’t.”

I have truly enjoyed this course. The quality of the content, the practice in a safe environment, the stimulating conversation, the vulnerability has made it a great platform. I would recommend it highly.
Leaders Who Coach™ is great course for everyone interested in becoming a great leader and a better person. I gained a lot of awareness of myself, and valuable insights and methods to work with my direct reports and my teams.
Insightful. A rewarding experience that sets the building blocks to develop yourself and your career. I gained a lot from Leaders Who Coach™.
I loved being on the Leaders Who Coach™ journey — it taught me so much about myself, my core values both professional and personally and what I can do to better support people I manage and work. Overall, it has made me a calmer and more mindful individual, and given me the tools that will be beneficial for years to come.
LWC™ has been a mind-shift journey. I feel more grounded, and in a better position to support my teams with mindful, strategic conversations and decisions. Each aspect of it feels intentional and all together immersive. From the lectures, to group coaching sessions, to references, to assignments etc. It’s awesome!
An incredible experience. Thoughtfully crafted to help you discover more about yourself and develop the skills necessary to become a great leader who can coach others and have a positive impact on their teams and colleagues.
I absolutely loved it. I learned so much and made some amazing connections with my cohort. Anyone thinking about developing themselves, just go for it!
I’d always valued coaching conversations with others and found the most value from coming to my own conclusion. This course has enabled me to feel more confident in providing that to others. Watching a seed take root and seeing it grow conversation after conversation, really gives me a sense of pride that I’m helping someone get to where they want to be and even where they never thought of going.
I would highly recommend this course. I have learnt so much about myself, others and the importance of showing up.
Such a wonderful course, which has improved both my coaching skills and my self-awareness, making me much more confident.
The LWC™ journey has been amazing. The lectures are insightful and practical. It made me aware of great possibilities in leading and coaching.
I’d highly recommend LWC™. If you’re curious about coaching, passionate about growing people, and also pragmatic about the nature of coaching required as a people lead — this course is for you.
I gained a lot of insight. At the start, I met complete strangers and was coaching them straight away. By the end of the course, they were all friendly faces and we had been able to experience each other’s journey on becoming Leaders Who Coach™.
The magical bridge between the past and the future I longed for. Leaders Who Coach™ helped me achieve a transformational alignment. I’m fully equipped to go into the future and succeed.
Gained a lot of practical skills and now have a much bigger toolbox to help my team and my organisation to tackle challenges and grow. Brilliant experience.
I was constantly being exposed to my own projections and guided on how to remove them from my interactions to ensure a better result for my coachees.
It’s really an eye-opening experience. A journey alongside incredible people and led by wonderful tutors always ready to help and give.
I took on new ideas and learnings and applied them in real work situations so my skills were embedded. Hugely recommended!
Enormously beneficial in better understanding my team & their problems. Time to practice & develop these skills has given me the confidence to use them.
I’ve enjoyed learning about myself — generating a balanced and authentic leadership style that works with advocacy and content creation.
A brilliant reminder for me that relationships are at the core of everything and experiential ‘doing’ is critical to knowledge-building.
The single highest praise I can offer for anything is that it captures my interest, and makes me re-evaluate the world around me in a new way. Thank you all!
Great course, great teacher and the Enrichment Cohort, talking to other people in similar situations, really helped to get different opinions.
I’ve gained skills that are benefiting me and my team right now, and will only continue to develop the more I practice. Can’t wait!
It’s a new way to lead and unlock the potential in your team. Honestly, it’s transformational for me as a leader.
Leaders Who Coach™ felt like opening up a computer to find out how it’s wired so you can operate it to its optimal point. I have developed an array of learnings that have already benefited personal and professional relationships and will remain with me for the rest of my career.
An opportunity to engage with leaders from different backgrounds and industries, a space to discuss, understand and appreciate everyone’s experience.
Leaders Who Coach™ was excellent. Beautifully crafted with great thought and care, and it has been very inspirational.
I learned a lot from the Leaders Who Coach™ course and I am happy to recommend it to anyone interested in becoming a leader who chooses to coach.
Made me think about my leadership style and approaches in a different way. I really enjoyed the focus on empowering our teams for high-performance.

The Enrichment Calls were amazing, the tutors’ knowledge of coaching is next-level and they are excellent facilitators.
Provided me with a community of inspiring individuals that encourage me to learn and improve myself, and a strong set of skills to grow others.
Fantastic quality. I have grown as a leader and my team has noticed a difference in how I approach topics and questions. I really enjoyed the course.
Truly high-quality content, delivered superbly, and brought to life with the enrichment calls.
Everyone brings their style and flavour to a coaching conversation. Seeing others in the cohort in action was a fantastic way to learn and grow.
A journey of learning & healing where I have reconciled the experiences of the past with the vision for my future. First class tutor. Empowering environment.
I’m walking back into the world with a secret and powerful new awareness (a new superpower!). Utterly grateful. I feel more confident, clear, and effective.

All of my conversations have improved as a result of being deliberate with my approach to being a better conversation partner. Thank you, Mag!

I learned so much from watching and listening & have noticed a change in my approach to conversations both professionally & personally.
My tutors, Mag and Uschi were capable of providing great insights on how to improve my coaching and leadership skills. Recommend!
It was an amazing experience. I’m more patient in conversations & allow space for my team to show me how great they are. The BC team was amazing.
Paid back in multiples, improving my conversations & coaching abilities from the very first week. Come out more authentic, forgiving & curious.
Exceeded my expectations. Feeling nourished and refreshed & gained the confidence to trust in my leadership & shake off what I thought “leadership” looks like.

“The most valuable thing for me has been noticing that I’m more mindful of the conversational dynamic, who wants to speak, what someone’s body language is saying, or me noticing when I ask stacked questions or jump in and ‘solutionise’.” — Chris Jenkins
“Loving it and cherishing every step of the way. I’m applying what we learn left and right – super challenging and what I love the most is the support we get to process what we’re going through on our cohorts. It really helps tremendously.” — Vera Trindade
Every week, through study, assignments and live cohort calls, we create safe spaces for you to experiment with phrases, questions, energy, body language, emotions, challenges, conflicts, and tension in multiple leadership conversations.

The Who Energy Model™ helps us understand our role as leaders.
When we’re in a positive headspace, we feel we can solve any problem. When we’re feeling low, it’s easy to feel lost, confused and demotivated.
The Who Energy Model™ helps Leaders Who Coach™ remember to empower our direct reports. This makes those difficult conversations around accountability and course-correct much easier to hold — before our direct report nosedives in their mental health. We help them move towards a healthier head space so they can design their own solutions. Regaining control is key to being happy and emotionally committed to our work and our team.
