The Development Compass

We are pleased to update you with information about a new member of the Development Compass team.

Jean is training to be a facilitator for the Foundation Course. She comes from a background of communication skills and has her own communication skills training company, Powered by Communication. She also holds an MSc in Psychology, is an NLP Practitioner and has a Diploma in Life Coaching from Oxford College.

She is creative, humorous and determined to make a difference utilising her skills. You can get a flavour of Jean by checking out her first post to our blog. You’ll be seeing quite a bit more from Jean in the future. To get you started, here are the first few paragraphs:

“When was the last time you took a holiday that was exciting, full of adventure and wonderment, compelling, inspiring, refreshing, liberating… ? How much did you pay to take that holiday? How long did it take you to prepare to leave, to travel to your mode of transport, to be delivered to your destination, to find your way around a foreign location, to pack to return, to travel to your mode of transport, to be delivered to your home destination, to travel home. Whew… I don’t know about you, but I’m already exhausted.

If you put sorting out kids, pets, plants, someone to watch your home, putting a hold on your mail, making sure everything is settled at work before you go and then addressing everything waiting for you at work upon your return, into the mix - it is compelling to stay home and not even take a holiday!

If you’re wondering why I’m writing to you about holidays, it’s because I want to share with you the last amazing holiday I took. You may want to consider it for yourself.”

We appreciate your interest and look forward to hearing from you soon. We will keep you updated with further developments as they happen.
