1. I have had the privilege of working with Chris. He comes with a wealth of experience in his field and the sessions with him added immense value for me. They helped me to reflect on my life and career to date, understand where I am as a leader, and what my strengths, weaknesses and leadership style are. This helped me to determine where I wanted to go in my career and the building blocks needed to help me achieve success. The learnings from the sessions with Chris will definitely benefit me in my career going forward.”

—Werner Bosman, CEO PPS Short-Term Insurance

3. “Initially, I was extremely sceptical about sacrificing such a significant amount of time when I had so many day-to-day business demands and questioned how my businesses and I might possibly benefit from this coaching program. After meeting Chris I was convinced that this would be a worthwhile investment of my time and he did not disappoint.

Over the various one-to-one sessions, Chris helped me to:

  • learn more about my drivers, values and preferred styles of working

  • identify my blind spots and how to better manage them

  • draw upon my past experiences to solve problems and issues faced by our industry in South Africa

  • identify a number of development areas that would help me to grow.

I am a great supporter of Chris and would recommend use of his vast expertise and knowledge.”

2. I have had the pleasure of working closely with Chris over the course of two years observing him implementing his ‘future purpose’ methodology. I’ve witnessed the radical transformation in our organisation and its people. It is a powerful way of finding true purpose and implementing it while keeping a wise balance where everyone feels safe and heard.

4. Career decisions and transformations, by their very nature, are life-changing. I worked with Chris during a particularly critical time of self-reflection and decision-making regarding my career—my Future Purpose. The program gives you a sense of processing awareness—where you constantly review your place in your own career and the choices you make—and structured tools to help you do just that are few and far between.

5. I am extremely happy about these sessions; they couldn’t have come at a better time in my career journey. They have helped me to deeply reflect on who I am and what I have to offer, the role that I am currently holding, and what are the key success and potential trip-up factors. Thank you once again for your great program Chris, it is indeed highly recommended for any person in a senior leadership position.”
