Coaching is a way of life. I felt privileged to be one of the first UAE nationals to ever participate in the ILM Level 7 Certificate in Executive Coaching and Mentoring.

By aligning my course choice with my work values of professionalism and trust, I found an endorsed course with ILM to be the way forward. The course brought together a varied group of people but somehow we blended with common interests and the desire to bring coaching to everyday people from all walks of life. Out of our small group I think everyone left feeling inspired, invigorated and with the capacity to become great coaches! Brenda Mckay was a wonderful tutor who’s warmth and enthusiasm was evident for all to see.

I had a deeper understanding of empathetic skills, listening and understanding. For self development and future career progression, the added dimension of the programme being routed in academic rigour is particularly helpful.

I have nothing but utmost professional respect for the way BSC conduct themselves in delivering and supervising coaching training. Even after the training has been completed they continue to offer support through networking events and actively encourage further supervision.

I found the training incredibly helpful in developing a range of skills to assist me in supporting my team and developing a culture based on continuous improvement by focusing on solutions.

“From a personal perspective, I am convinced that much of my success is attributable to the training and development work I have done with Judith and other members of her team. In the highly competitive senior job market, mentoring of this type is in my view invaluable”.
