Testimonials

Peta provided support and excellent coaching techniques to develop my professional L&D, OD and HR skills. She is courageous, bold and authentic and her coaching style makes her approachable and great to test ideas with. She is an innovative thinker and was always challenging my thinking in a way that gave me confidence to try new and different approaches, which has really helped me be successful in my HR career

HR

This program has allowed me to reframe characteristics about myself that I was viewing as flaws or limitations. It’s easy for us to get wrapped up in the things that we aren’t. This course really helped me to rethink some of the light/dark areas that I was getting stuck in. The structure of the workshop was fantastic. There was an activity that had us drawing out the tasks in our day to day lives and placing them either above or below our “joy line”. Perhaps not surprising when we realized that our High Joy tasks play quite well to our strengths. I would absolutely recommend this workshop to anyone that feels a little stuck, as Peta is great at creating a space where everyone is comfortable and leaves feeling heard and moreover, inspired.

Vice President Marketing, Canada

This course has given me a unique insight into my personal strengths and purpose. The great feeling I had leaving the session has stayed with me in my daily work and is something I draw on every day. The program was engaging and interactive and gave us the opportunity to share openly and honestly. It was amazing to see the sense of comraderie and trust built within the group of women I work with as a result of doing this program together. I think that Peta’s courage to be vulnerable and share personal experiences and truths is what made the sessions so successful, by doing this she gives others permission to do the same.

Analyst, Canada

The For-Impact Leadership Program has absolutely challenged the way I think about myself – allowing me to really focus on how I show up in a work or home scenario and how the slightest change I can make, can really impact a situation or outcome.

I found my coaching sessions with Peta calming yet powerful at the same time! Using real business issues and examples rather than text books to deep dive into drivers of my behaviour and emotions, it has enabled me to view possible outcomes from many different angles.

State Sales Leader, Australia

I was a participant in the For-Impact Leadership Program designed and delivered by Peta and it has developed and transformed the way I lead. Peta’s passion and commitment provides a self-motivating learning space. She has inspired me to be a leader who can impact an organisation and its changing systems. The way Peta engages, connects and helps people grow to be the best version of themselves is a wonderful strength that she has. I feel privileged to have been a part of this program. Thank you for your coaching and guidance on this wonderful journey of leadership development.

Senior Commercial Manager, Australia

Peta has helped me make sense of the systems and dynamics at play in the organisation and beyond. Through her unique and provocative coaching and effective questioning she has pushed me to think through challenges, hold multiple perspectives and realise possibilities I wouldn’t have otherwise considered. I am leading in alignment with my purpose and values and it has been incredibly powerful, for me personally and to support the organisation’s transformation.

CEO, Australia

Peta is an extraordinarily gifted and talented coach. Her capacity for listening and asking great questions to provoke deep thinking and reflection in a one-on-one environment is like no one I have encountered in my career as an executive. Her capacity to connect with executive teams in a group environment and coach the collective in the moment is both graceful and provocative. She has truly transformed my leadership and our collective leadership simultaneously and our organisation has much to thank her for.
