The Assertive Leadership course with Mal was one of the most impactful CLPL activities I have undertaken in my career. It allowed me to reflect on my own leadership on a personal level whilst coaching me to develop strategies to improve my skills and self-awareness. It gave me vital time and space to consider and discuss the impact of my leadership approaches in work and life.
I have absolutely no doubt that it played a vital role in helping me to secure my first permanent Senior Leadership role - I even mentioned it during my interviews!
Mal is friendly, extremely knowledgeable and very down to earth. Her experience in real school settings allows her to contextualise the theory she explores with you and there is a real sense of empathy in her delivery. I thoroughly recommend the course.
I would recommend Mal as a coach.
