“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””

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.

From the start, it was clear that she is extremely passionate about helping her clients become the best they can be. Her commitment to understanding how people think, feel and behave is beyond impressive. It is inspiring. I have no doubt that she is a great coach to have.”

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.

CEO @ Inspired Leadership Development CEO

“I had the pleasure of working with Innocente during my tenure at VentureWeb. Even though she worked in a different division to me, I was always inspired by her consistently high levels of positive energy. I worked closely with Innocente on a specific project at VentureWeb. There, I experienced first-hand how Innocente is a ‘go-getter’ and a determined vision-centric achiever. She places the client first and carefully aligns her interactions with the business's goals. Maintaining a focus on quality and understanding of what her clients require, Innocente balances her service delivery with her experience and specialist acumen in her field. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Innocente for the positive impact she has had on me, and I do not hesitate to recommend Innocente.”
