How these Mini Courses are helping people …
“Our team has benefited from the mini courses provided by Korinne from Thrive Coaching and Training. From conflict resolution to communication skills to motivational leadership, these courses have been invaluable in developing our front-line staff’s skills and confidence. Attendees have been vocal with their peers on how much they enjoyed the course(s), and we are grateful for the opportunities to help them thrive at work.” – Nikki Ioannou-Droushiotis (CEO, Guernsey Employment Trust)
“Korinne is great! I have been on many of her short courses and it has helped me a lot within my job role. I will always look out for her new courses and feel I can reach out whenever I need!” -ALP, Local Trust Company“
“I have done several training courses since taking the step into management and I can honestly say that I have learnt so much from Korinne, more that I did doing professional qualifications. The mini courses are a great way to focus on specific areas of growth allowing myself to absorb it all and then take it away to practice in my professional life (and home life on the kids). It has helped me to have more confidence in my ability and approaching situations I would have refrained from before in a more professional and prepared way.” –VH, Local Trust Company
Conflict Resolution: “Great Course – I will be able to use skills inside and outside the workplace. Thank you!” -Alison M.
