Next, they help you utilize your strengths and expand upon them to become a better leader. They will show you how to get your team to trust you and follow your ideas and goals for the team.

Crista Mathew

To say that my path to becoming a Professional Coach was circuitous would be an understatement! After college, I worked in a corporate setting for 10 years and earned my MBA; I married my husband and we had two kids. Two months after our first child was born, we moved to London for “two to three years” for my husband’s job.

While overseas – for what turned out to be 13 years! – I traded in my career to raise our kids and manage our busy home and active family.

Ruth Sangale

In 2013 I left the security of my job to focus on doing only what I love doing which is designing and delivering innovative leadership workshops and coaching. Up to that time I had gained 15 years experience of working in large organisations, designing and implementing people processes to bring the best out of their employees.

Since then, I have completed an M.Sc in Innovation, Creativity and Leadership at Cass Buisness School. I am also a Director for an international charity affiliated with the UN and travel around the world delivering programmes to emerging leaders.
