I think it is “the missing link”. I’ve been a equine inspired (Schelli-ism) leadership coach for a few years. I’ve already spoken with three clients who themselves said the challenge for their leadership cohort is navigating uncertainty and change. The level of experiential learning in a virtual platform is fantastic. The way you bring it back to relevance to the client in an uncertain world. The questionnaire and weekly experiences are amazing too. I enjoyed the individual coaching session with June and am looking forward to the next ones.

The ability to apply this material to individuals as well as to teams. The process demonstrated how the material can be delivered effectively in a virtual format to meet the needs of business and individuals. This is the keystone of my equine experiential learning. The material has helped to think out of the box and see what is possible. I never thought experiential learning could be developed and delivered so effectively. Great example of how to apply Full Spectrum Thinking!

It provides a bridge for me to have conversations with companies about this work without them having to invest in an in person programme, and so I hope will shorten the sales cycle and create a more sustainable recurring revenue stream
