“I attend a business coaching session presented by Innocente (PerformForward), to be frank I assumed it would be just another one of those long-winded meetings you can’t wait to get out of. Innocente however was amazing, really made it worth attending, actively engaging with all who attended and challenged us on various levels. I personally learnt not only about myself but about managing various people, situations and cultures morning session.I was extremely impressed and if offered the opportunity would definitely attend again.”

“Innocente is an incredible manager who uses a coaching methodology to encourage growth, different thinking patterns, self-motivation and solutions for specified areas of development. Innocente leads by example, explains things effectively and always makes herself available for guidance, further coaching and mentorship.”

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.

Innocente is a passionate and energetic speaker who will leave audiences motivated to take on Monday's with more enthusiasm and less dread. Reframing Mondays into days of purpose is Innocentes strength. I highly recommend her as a speaker, facilitator and MC. She will enliven your team and fuel you for a motivated week.

Innocente owns her knowledge and deep understanding of what drives our behaviour and how we motivate ourselves and interact with others. Her enthusiasm and insight was a sure guide for me to take that next step, own my unique abilities and be the best that I can be. If you are ready to make some changes that will last, that are meaningful and sustainable, you will be hard-pressed to find a better partner!

Taste Manager - IMCD South Africa

This course stood out with its integration of online tools, setting it apart from traditional book-based courses. The biggest takeaway for me was on self-awareness and performance management, offering rich and well-curated content.

Manager-to-Leader Participant

Innocente's contagious energy and insightful facilitation of the TGI Monday talk, makes the words on the screen come alive. My team began the day as they would any other day, however after the talk, we continued our day with a new perspective on tackling the challenges ahead. The power of understanding one's strength, and that of one's team members, can change the way a team thinks about problems and solves those problems. Mondays have become days filled with productivity and positivity.

Jenna Segal

Discipline Leader of the Fashion Retail Programmes - Stadio School of Fashion

Innocente is a well-prepared, lively and engaging speaker. I met her at a presentation that looked into the interface between human resources and design thinking output. It was enjoyable and easy to tap into her wealth of experience and knowledge about people, behaviour, performance and science. Dealing with her is an energizing experience and you will walk away with practical solutions to try out, at the very least with some substantial food for thought.
