Graduates say…
I had not thought too much about taking a leadership course when Sehaam asked if I might be interested in Leaders Who Coach™.
Managing a team of 21 (including other people managers), I knew I wanted to learn more and be a better manager. I’d been working with Sehaam as my coach for a while and saw many opportunities with the course as it was focused on coaching and conversation skills. Communicating with clarity has always been an area I’d like to improve in!
I found the course extremely beneficial for my role, and I learnt new skills every week. The group I worked with was amazing, and we had productive conversations every week, which further enhanced my learnings and takeaways. Sehaam is both an excellent coach and course leader! The weekly tutorials were easy to follow, and the assignments kept me accountable each week.
As we’ve now wrapped up the course, I find myself going back to my learnings again and again. I feel more confident in my conversation skills and awareness of how I can communicate with more clarity. Not only am I able to have more productive 1:1s, but I am also able to coach my direct reports to be better people managers and leaders who coach themselves.
Leaders Who Coach™ is a great course for getting the most out of your team. It is an honour to lead people, and your people are the company’s biggest asset.
Throughout the Leaders Who Coach™ course, we learned to listen to our direct reports, spot areas to delve into thoroughly, as well as action plan and ensure tasks are delivered and ownership achieved.
In a broader sense, the course made me trust my team more and reduce the chance of unmet deadlines. Great course, great teacher and the Enrichment Cohort, talking to other people in similar situations really helped to get different opinions.
When I first signed up for Leaders Who Coach™, it intrigued me to explore what a leader who coaches looked like. Having worked with Sehaam before as an Executive Coach, I knew I would get prompts for deep thinking, reflection, and that a lot of care would have gone into the materials.
I hadn’t prepared for just how much richness there was throughout this journey! It exceeded my expectations. I got a clear sense of what my core values are, had enlightening conversations with those closest to me to understand how others receive my communication, shone light onto my blind spots, and got multiple opportunities to practice my listening and conversation skills.
The video content was well structured, easy to digest, and the cheat sheets were handy quick reminders that I could keep with me day-to-day. The Enrichment Calls were exceptionally valuable, even on days when I felt like I might not have much to add or was tired, I came away feeling nourished and refreshed.
Through this course, I’ve gained the confidence to trust in my leadership, lead in ways which align with my values and to shake off the pressures of what I’ve thought “leadership” traditionally looks like. I’m excited to work with others and walk the journey with them, seeing them thrive in their own decision-making and be a resource rather than an instructor.
Real growth, confidence & mastery in leadership
I didn’t know what to expect when joining the Leaders Who Coach™ course and it exceeded my expectations. Sehaam is an excellent leadership coach and I was fortunate to be in a cohort of leaders with interesting backgrounds.
The course made me think about my leadership style and approaches in a different way. The best leaders create an environment conducive for learning and discovery. I really enjoyed the focus on empowering our teams to help with their progression and our ability to create high performing teams. Thank you Sehaam.
I have defined my leadership style through this course, established my values and the type of leader I want to become through a foundation of continuous improvement and learning. I’m more confident actually having a conversation about my leadership qualities now. This was something I struggled with and avoided prior to coming on this course.
It has given me confidence in leadership that was completely missing before coming on this course. The Leaders Who Coach™ course has been a journey of learning and a healing process where I have reconciled the experiences of the past with the vision for my future.
I enjoyed the Enrichment Calls the most — the opportunity to share the week’s learning, and trial that learning in a safe space with trusted fellow cohort members, was really exciting!
Sehaam Cyrene is first class as a tutor – calm, engaging, funny and generous – combined with her experience, knowledge and expertise, you learn in an environment that is very empowering!
Leaders Who Coach™ is built upon weekly skills and capabilities modules. Each one includes learning and assignments, but the value game changer for me was the weekly Enrichment Calls. These were an opportunity to explore real-life situations and practice the capabilities with Sehaam and fellow students. Digital environments which focus on experiences which are intentional and interactive work for me.
Sehaam’s course also left me with a deeper awareness of who I am.
Coaches have an open, non-judgemental, and instinctive capacity to understand where we’re at and where we’re trying to get to. They prioritise relationships over tasks and build trust from the get-go.
Our society needs these capacities at scale because without trust, truth and cohesion, nothing works. This isn’t a quick fix, and we can’t impose it either. It’s a process we must always work in a space which Leaders Who Coach™ can hold for us to explore together.
I wasn’t doing my best as a leader or for my team outside of technical growth, so when the opportunity to join Leaders Who Coach™ came up, I was interested in the content and the way the course seemed to approach leadership.
The lectures and assignments were of fantastic quality and the lectures were certainly ones to pay attention to, easy to digest and take notes on. The assignments actually made me take action in the real world rather than looking at theoretical scenarios, so I actively made an impact.
Sehaam was fantastic — her passion and knowledge coming through during the Enrichment Calls with the group. Not letting people stay silent is a good skill to have as a tutor!
I can say I have grown as a leader and am certainly still growing. My team has noticed a difference on how I approach topics and questions, and I don’t immediately drive to a solution from my own opinions. They’ve been receptive of the initial one-to-ones that we’ve had and are driving their own growth roadmaps, even during a very busy period.
I really enjoyed the course. I had no expectations due to never having completed a management course, but I feel like I have gone from zero to learning a lot!
Over the duration of the course, I was able to take on new ideas and learnings and apply them in real work situations. The course design meant that I could share examples that worked and needed some refinement for group support and reflection. This meant that skills were embedded, rather than just learning key works in a 1-day course.
I hugely recommended anyone in a leadership or management position to take on the Leaders Who Coach™ programme.
