What Clients Said
CFO
“Lynelle’s coaching has given me an opportunity to further recognise, articulate and act on my greatest strengths, whilst working on my development areas. The platform provided an open and safe space for discussions and learnings. I strongly recommend these sessions as the support, giving, sharing and guidance has been one of the most added value leadership contributions I have experienced.”
COO
“Working with Lynelle has been life changing. She has enlightened me on a number of aspects, and awareness techniques that I required or lay dormant, as well as assisting with re-organising my personal admin. She has assisted me with re-focusing my career and self worth in my position. She has been trustworthy, encouraging and patient in all our dealings.”
MD
“Excellent Sessions!! Will be back to continue on this insightful journey.”
Dr King Costa
Lynelle is an experienced, passionate, and people-centered individual with a mission to empower and develop individuals for organizational impact. I work with her on a number of projects, and the drive and energy she has for her work and clients are amazing – all she thinks of is adding value to people and organizations alike. As a coach, she makes sure that goal attainment is the final outcome, regardless of the situation or conditions people might be going through or faced with. As an OD specialist, her desire is to see organizations transforming into healthy and caring environments where people (employees and managers) may thrive holistically and unite for the common good. She is inspirational, energetic, transformational, and ambidextrous in unfamiliar leadership dilemmas. I recommend Lynelle for the maximization of both individual and organizational impact in South Africa and globally!
Advocate SC
“Lynelle is a compassionate person, and succeeded to analyse my profession and adapt to my circumstances very well. Through being persistent, patient and going the extra mile, she helped me regain maximum levels of efficiency, improved social relations and an ability to find humour and elements of joy again. The disciplined coaching methods caused a compulsory introspection, resulting in a rediscovery and remarkable turnaround in my life.”
Analyst Programmer
“The biggest benefit I’ve gained from my coaching series is the direction and purpose we’ve established – this direction and a sense of belief in myself has me excited for the future. You have been really understanding of my needs and empathetic of my situation. Most importantly, you were really great at making me understand me and believe in myself. You have been a great sounding board and confidante, and gave me a kick-start to help me get going.”
Business Owner
“Lynelle is soft and kind and always there when needed. She never gives up if you don’t have a solution … she unblocks your block. She has a knack at making one think. She is so good at what she does and may have to go slower with others! Through coaching I gained confidence, straight thinking, direction and order in every aspect of my life. The quality of coaching was absolutely brilliant! Magical!”
Investment Consultant
“Lynelle’s been a great Coach – very supportive and encouraging. She helped guide and prepare me for a new role at work. I’ve been tremendously successful, thanks to her help. I have also overcome many fears and have managed to position myself differently in my colleagues’ eyes.”
Project Manager
“Coaching helped me to un-clutter my mind by setting goals and to stay focused in order to complete tasks and my goals. I was able to value myself, turn negative self-talk into positive thoughts and gain confidence and strength. A lot of energy and quality time was spent on finding solutions and I appreciate the perseverance and efforts Lynelle put into the sessions. Lynelle has so much to offer and a bond was established from our first session onwards. I felt comfortable and trusted Lynelle with all aspects of my life. Thanks Lynelle – you are an amazing Coach!!”
Key Account Manager
“I want to acknowledge Lynelle for helping me to recognize the impact of my thoughts and behaviour on my relationships. The changes I made made a significant difference to my outer world. Thank you for providing a safe and unpolluted space for our sessions … I always felt at ease with you and looked forward to our sessions. You were professional and personal … thank you for being respectful and honest.”
National Manager
“Coaching opened the door to self-awareness. Lynelle actually cares. She understands the dynamics that govern the human behaviour and I think it is coaching at its best. If Lynelle could get through to me, she can get through to anybody.”
In a rapidly evolving world, high performers get noticed, rewarded, and lead the way; while the average gets automated, overlooked, and left behind.
