Leadership Development For My Organization
"I knew I was in good hands with any of Padraig’s professional coaches, but I fervently believe that we hit the jackpot having had worked with James (Jim) Simms on this engagement. Jim’s top-notch skills in leading conversations within a flexible framework with an eye on building relationships and achieving results (the “so what?”) was precisely what we needed. Thank you."
Christian Robin | Director, Marketing and Web Presence at RRC Polytech
"Padraig’s Partnership Program was excellent. The cohort I was in had really strong leadership skills, so I was able to work on my own career goals while learning from my peers and from our coach. And, as an HR Practitioner, I facilitate a lot of coaching with managers daily. This program was a great way to learn from watching skilled coaching in action, while also being coached myself."
Sarah Giesbrecht, CPHR, B.B.A. | Manager, Human Resources, Birchwood
"My coach Eve was a tremendous support for me while trying to lead a team and support downtown businesses through the most challenging two years I’ve experienced in my career. Not only has Eve given me the tools to help manage the pressure leaders face, she’s also become my trusted confidant and challenges me to reframe some of the old habits that have held me back in the past."
Kate Fenske | CEO, Downtown Winnipeg BIZ
"Through coaching, I achieved the goals I set for myself: I gained more confidence, more exposure with our senior leaders, more confidence from them in me and in turn, I was able to give that coaching and guidance back to my team members."
Garry Nickels | Director, Application Delivery
"I was almost a year into a new role leading a small team and providing strategic HR advice at senior leadership tables when I started working with Janet. Having Janet’s coaching every few weeks during this time in my career gave me confidence and clarity to contribute fully in my role much quicker than I would have felt otherwise.”
Megan Wiwcharuk | HR Business Operations Lead, Government of Saskatchewan
