Leaders are everywhere, not just in the office. Sometimes they pop up when you least expect it.

How to give feedback to unsuccessful candidates and enhance your organisations reputation.

Candidates applying to work for your organisation and with your team are often your biggest supporters. They’ve watched your organisation from afar and want to be involved.

“The benefits of coaching are many; 80% of people who receive coaching report increased self-confidence, and over 70% benefit from improved work performance, relationships, and more effective communication skills. 86% of companies report that they recouped their investment on coaching and more” (International Coach Federation)
