"The training has been very valuable to me. Through Sarah's guidance I now understand more why certain people/cultures communicate in certain ways and how I can play a positive role in those communications. The program is also making me more aware of human interactions in general as well as my own behaviour in an intercultural setting. Sarah is an expert on this topic and knows what she is talking, as she answers my questions patiently."

"A good coach can change a game, and a great coach can change a life.

 

These words were brought into action by the inspiring coaching from Sarah. 

 

Sarah puts all her energy and thoughts not just on understanding the issue you reach out to her for. But digs deeper to help you understand what it is that holds you back and works with you step by step till you finally say Hurrah!

I did it.

​

I have had a first-hand experience of how successful and game-changing this is."

"The Energy Leadership Index Assessment was an eye-opening experience that significantly enhanced my self-awareness and consciousness. The assessment provided deep insights into my energy levels, thought patterns, and emotional responses, empowering me to understand my strengths and areas for growth. By identifying my default energy and recognizing how it impacts my decision-making, communication, and overall well-being, I feel better equipped to navigate life's challenges and foster more positive and constructive interactions with others. Highly valuable and transformative! The coaching follow-up sessions with Sarah helped in being able to apply this knowledge consistently and practically.  It transformed my life."

"I had the pleasure of working with Sarah on an IDI assessment debrief. Sarah is a wonderful coach and an insightful conversationalist. She masterfully shared insights with me, while gently, yet firmly, probing on connections I might make between my assessment, my work relationships, and my personal experience.
Sarah was also able to break down the concepts of the IDI for me in a clear and interesting way, helping me make sense of the information in a way that would have been extremely difficult without her knowledge and accessible manner.
Sarah brings humor to the conversation as well, which made the exploration into my cultural awareness and ability to navigate cultural differences an enjoyable and nonthreatening experience. Sarah also left me with thought-provoking questions that I am still pondering and that gave me a framework for improving my relationships with peers, direct reports and supervisors.
I highly recommend Sarah to anyone who wants to delve more deeply into their culture awareness and competence, while also receiving coaching on how to chart a course for improvement..”

“I have had the privilege to be coached by Sarah, it's been so rewarding and it's been nothing but a blessing to have someone understand you and hold space when needed, as well as switch hats from a coach to a mentor when required, which allowed me to further understand myself better, be it professionally or personally. Sarah is an amazing listener and doesn't sit to judge for what one shares, creating an amazing environment that encourages one to open up. I look forward to our coaching sessions. She has the natural ability to make you know your own potential as well as steer you slightly if needed. She helped me reflect on my leadership style and kept asking the right questions that enabled me to see from perspectives. I'm so grateful to you, Sarah and thank you again for your insights, time, love and light. ”

"After 6 months of coaching with Sarah, my attitude about myself, my career and life has shifted 180 degrees. I am grateful for the opportunity that I had Sarah as my coach who has helped me to focus and prioritize. I have been better able to look at problems in different ways, thus finding very meaningful solutions. I want to emphasize that Sarah does not make decisions for me but instead has helped me develop ways to deal with situations using my own knowledge and self-awareness, and she helped me at least develop a plan or concept for what I want my career to look like for the next 3-5 years of my life. Kudos to Sarah for being a great coach and I deeply value the time we’ve spent together and the progress she has helped me make in my life. I’ve made so much progress and learnt from Sarah in the last 6 months than in my entire 8 years of working experience."

"My experience with Sarah’s coaching has been incredible. She is patient, kind, thoughtful, and, most importantly, takes the time to explain concepts that are simple yet highly complex to digest and put into practice. I found her approach to be very practical, she used a lot of real-world examples that helped me fully grasp the learning concepts, and I was able to apply that to my everyday interactions.

I especially valued the exercise on active and impactful ‘listening’ - I had no idea of the different approaches until she explained them, which truly changed my mindset. Sarah is a powerful coach, and she helped me become a better, more mindful leader.

Thank you, Sarah!"

Additionally, her insights into leadership interview questions were invaluable, boosting up the candidate's confidence and readiness. Her resume review offered valuable insights that made a noticeable difference, significantly increasing candidate's visibility to potential employers.

"I was thrilled to hear our organization was using the IDI as part of a cultural competence initiative. The IDI's unique individualized growth plan ensures each person has what s/he needs to grow in intercultural competence. During my IDI debrief with Sarah, she quickly identified my individual challenges and was able to understand them in context of my personal history.  It was clear that her wealth of experience in working with diverse populations afforded her a unique ability to listen and fully understand.  In a short time, I felt as if Sarah had known me my whole life and was able to direct me in concrete ways to personally grow in cultural competence!"
