You Will Transform.
Hear from past participants across sectors — from Special Operations to Duke University to Fortune 500 companies.
This program was the most challenging and rewarding learning experience I have encountered. If you are looking to grow personally and professionally, this is the program. Out of five stars, I give it six stars.
This program from Transformation Edge is, in fact, truly transformational. The experiential approach — which exposes students to being coached and gives them a chance to practice coaching in every single class meeting — accelerated both my coaching skill and my confidence.
Transformation Edge is a powerful, self-affirming experience that meets you where you are and works with you to gain the knowledge, skills, and experience to be a practicing coach early on, throughout, and after the program.
I have been an HR professional in leadership roles for over 30 years. The program utilized my professional strengths in new ways and gave me a deeper understanding of how to facilitate clients' ability to tap into their own inherent strengths and unlimited personal power.
