Personal Development, Team Development or Leadership Development

 

Developmental work can be hugely beneficial.  It has been for us!  It has helped us in our own personal and professional lives – saving us a lot of time, mistakes and heart ache along the way. It has certainly saved us from broken and damaged relationships. It has been an investment that keeps paying out significant dividends. Whether you are an individual wanting some personal input to help you progress, or you are a leader who often invests in others, we can help.

 

 

Better  understand  yourself  and  the  people  you  live  and work with 

 

Personal/Team/Leadership Development involves discovering more about yourself, your strengths, how you relate to others and in turn how they relate to you. It really helps improve your relationships and enables you to better bring out the best in others.  You become more aware and understanding of people and the impact you have on them.

Testimonials

 

"Having engaged in personality profiling twice in the past and finding it unhelpful and even threatening, it was with some trepidation that I engaged in the MBTI process with Sean. It was Sean’s starting point of aiming to encourage and develop working to personal strengths that made the whole exercise refreshing and encouraging. It was approached with care and a concern to help me grow in self-awareness, and develop my confidence. Through applying guidance and advice relevant to my particular personality type I was able to apply these effectively in my current situation with its different challenges and opportunities. Overall, it has been really helpful." Rev Marg Hardcastle

 

“On behalf of our staff team I want to thank you most sincerely for leading us so creatively and warmly this week. The whole team really appreciated the 2 days and the time has been most effective in helping [new team members] settle in and for all of us in developing our relationships.” Rev Adrian Argyle, Regional Minister, Heart of England Baptist Association (HEBA)

 

"The Myers Briggs work Sean did with me gave me a greater awareness of my strengths and my weaknesses. Far from putting me in a box it helped me identify areas for my personal development. I now have a far better understanding of the similarities and differences I have to others." Andy Kind Professional Comedian, www.andykind.co.uk

​

"Sean Kennedy is an inspiring and motivational life coach. As a Myers-Briggs practitioner, he worked with me to assess and develop the results from a personality test. During a difficult time, his prayer and support enabled me to find the resources to change direction. Thank you, Sean." Manisha - Frankfurt
