We have worked with Monique in numerous occasions over the last six years. I have had her facilitate various development workshops on different topics for my team. We have previously engaged her services as a leadership development coach for some members of my team. I am currently working with her as my leadership development coach.
Her uplifting and positive personality make her easy to open up to and delightful to work with. She has not only been an amazing coach but also a compassionate mentor, and the strategies and lessons she has provided have inspired and motivated me to strive to have a career life that is congruent with my values and passions. If I could identify a single phrase to describe my experience with Monique, my mind and heart inevitably summarizes that she “has worked in the shoes”. She is very knowledgeable about the international business environment and you are sure to get real outcomes that you can apply in your day-to-day work life. It’s not just talking through issues, but ideas and routines to put in place that propel you forward and her follow through is remarkable.
Monique is an incredibly talented, well-read natural coach and her value-centred thought-provoking guidance has challenged me to think beyond just “doing well and developing my team and myself within the confines of the prevailing organizational norms” to focusing more on impact and being bold doing my part to shift the norms in a way that capitalizes on my passion and strengths. I continue to look forward to the sessions with her as I continue to develop my career.
