I bring over 25 years experience in international development, including a decade coaching activists and facilitating leadership development. I have consulted for numerous businesses and not for profit organisations across Africa, the Middle East,... the European Union and the United States.
My extensive leadership experience spans three distinct phases: initially, consulting to visionary leaders to effectively implement their ideas; then, establishing and leading new initiatives on a global scale; and more recently, mentoring other leaders through both the establishment and scale-up phases of enterprise development.
I co-founded a pan-African leadership development initiative, Amahoro Africa, and a global leadership development initiative, Inspired Community. I established Strategic Impact, a consultancy based in Africa and Europe and am co-founder of Greater Good, a new venture based in the United States.
Over three decades, I have worked with the highest levels of leadership, including consultancy with various African Presidents and global civil society leaders.
I bring a unique set of cross-disciplinary experience covering business, systems design, activism, leadership mentoring, spirituality, organisational growth, financial management, and personal formation. I hold an MPhil and I am an Associate Certified Coach with the International Coaching Federation.
My current civil society clients cluster in three broad thematic areas: gender-based violence, conflict transformation and sustainable livelihoods.
Sean has the ability to absorb information quickly and extract the pertinent points. He is skilled at seeing the 'big picture' and can guide discussion towards clients finding their own solutions. He has helped me in this area on a number of occasions over the past 4 years.
I liked Sean' s direct , empathic, and understanding approach to assessing my needs.
His ability to identify goals and boundaries that have helped me to create balance in my expectations of myself.
I appreciated the spiritual guidance he provided and the links that helped me see my humanity which challenged some of my negative self perceptions . He has listened intently which has helped trust to develop quickly and makes himself easily contactable
This is an ongoing work in progress
Sean brings decades of experience in the field to his coaching clients. He and I have worked together in several countries and cultures. Sean listens well, using discernment in how and when he speaks. He believes in the power of each individual to bring unique resources to bear on an issue. I trust Sean to use his experiences as an appropriate lens while being objective in his coaching approach. He is an excellent value for the price you pay!
Sean is engaging and uses a variety of styles to communicate which I really appreciate. He gives you plenty of time to put the theory into action and really let it sink in. I would recommend him because he invests in individuals and equips you to see results.
In the training he delivered, Sean was very engaging and warm. He made the subject matter very interesting and accessible. There was a depth to his abilities that invigorated me and captivated my interest in the subject. He was also very open about his own experiences and thoughts which brought the vital element to make the training course alive. Because of this training and Sean's ability to make me feel able to put the training into practice, I have brought this powerful tool into play at my own place of work and my church leadership position.
Thanks Sean, I would not hesitate to recommend you to others.
Sean took time to answer our questions, give us personal examples and model everything he was teaching. He encouraged us as we started learning how to coach and gave us lots of opportunities to practice. His simpler funnel picture/ method was incredibly helpful in understanding the concepts. He is an excellent teacher and very approachable.
