Leadership is about people...

…not products, processes or places – because without engaging, motivating and inspiring the PEOPLE in your business who are responsible for developing and delivering those products, processes and places – there is no business.

And that’s why, at the One Percent, we put you and your people first

Christine is such an incredible coach, trainer and mentor. I first started working with her when I was a part of the Growing Leaders Program she delivered some years ago and found that workshop so impactful and important to my career that she was first on my list when I decided I wanted to run a similar workshop with our team. There is no one else I would’ve wanted to have this experience with, and I was just as impressed this time around as I was the first time.

Everything in the course content was relevant and delivered professionally and with great understanding of individual circumstances faced by returners. Has helped my journey back to work enormously and I have secured employment by deploying the skills learned through the course.

Return to Work Programme

A brilliant programme, hugely motivational and superbly facilitated with a fantastic balance of presentation and activities. I had some light bulb moments allowing me to think about myself, my skills and strengths and above all to have self-belief. Having been out of the world of work for some time it was a great opportunity to meet others in a similar situation and form a network of support. This superb support allowed a trust and a bond to be developed. Prepares you for that big step back into the world of work. A brilliant programme which I would highly recommend.

I participated in Christine’s leadership program years ago and continue to leverage the skills learned every day. As Co-Founder of CURICH|WEISS, when it came time to provide leadership training to our team, I immediately thought of Christine. Everyone shared how much they loved and appreciated her coaching and thoughtful approach. The program was packed with valuable lessons that the team is already employing, and it is a pleasure to watch the team continue to grow because of the program. Highly recommend

When I started my business over 10 years ago, I never considered the fact that I might need to manage people at some point. Like a lot of small business owners this isn’t something I've ever received training in, so when the opportunity arose to take Christine’s leadership course, I jumped at the chance!  Informative, engaging and incredibly eye-opening for myself and my employee. It has given us so much insight to move forward successfully as a team and as individuals within the business. I feel much more confident to embark on growing the team now. Thank you, Christine, for giving me the knowledge I was lacking - I’m excited to put all of my recent learnings into practise!

Christine is my 'go to' person when I'm having any leadership issues. She has a wealth of experience managing people and has always been able to help. She gives clear, actionable advice and has prevented some potentially costly mistakes for me in my business. As my business grows and I continue to hire more staff and increase my franchise network I will be keeping Christine on speed dial! Would highly recommend!
