Wendall Andrews

Emerging Leader Participant

In 2021 we decided to add the Emerging Leaders journey from Inspired Leadership to our early career professionals development. This unusual, but highly effective approach has had an excellent impact and we are now deploying all four paths of the Emerging Leader journey in the Africa Business Unit. This consulting relationship resulted in our Africa business moving from the bottom of the engagement pile to the top not only in our EMEA region but globally.

HR Director

I learnt to approach my actions with intention. The most valuable aspect for me was developing emotional intelligence, which facilitated meaningful self-reflection — something I hadn’t engaged in much before.

Emerging Leader Participant

“We contracted Innocente to work with our organisation to define and implement our company culture. Innocente came with great enthusiasm; she worked alongside our MANCO team in defining our culture by reinforcing and defining our organisation’s core values and supported us in the implementation thereof. Innocente’s invaluable ability to entrust our people to open up to her, which, in turn, created the required and valued feedback that formalised our culture. This program, led by Innocente, brought new energy to Interfile. Our values now form a common language at Interfile, ensuring we go about our daily tasks with passion and enthusiasm and with our mission statement in mind: “To make a Difference.”Interfile culture program has continued to evolve and develop around our company values, environment and expectations.So, when defining the key attributes of a “Coach,” they include being positive, enthusiastic, supportive, trusting, focused, goal-orientated, knowledgeable, observant, respectful, patient, and a clear communicator. Innocente ticks each and every one of those boxes. Thank you for “Making a Difference””

Admittedly, I have always had the tendency to dominate conversations. However through this course , I have learned the importance of giving others the opportunity to share their thoughts and experiences.

Emerging Leader Participant

I recently had some coaching sessions with Innocente and all I can say is wow! The sessions were extremely powerful and have changed the life in many positive ways. Innocente has a gift of being able to ask powerful questions and then quickly guiding you to the core of any issues. She then uses her pragmatism and any relevant data to work with you towards the best solution. I recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their performance or requires any coaching.
