Personal Performance Coaching
bodyimageOur coaching takes our clients from where they are now to where they want to be. Typically, we give disabled people and women the confidence and ability to move forward in a positive way. Often they are looking for employment, setting up a business, growing an existing business or looking to develop their leadership skills.
Coaching is an integral part of our personal leadership programme and our motivational work preparation training workshops. We also offer stand-alone coaching for individuals and groups.
We are privileged to have the following respected coaches as associates:
Danny West
Danny has extensive experience as a trainer, facilitator and personal performance coach. He holds a social work qualification with the General Social Care Council, a management qualification with the Chartered Management Institute and he has a Personal Performance Coaching Diploma.
Danny works extensively with disabled people and people who are living with long-term health conditions within the public, voluntary and corporate sectors.
He is personally living long-term with HIV and was one of the first people to be diagnosed in the UK in 1985.
