The course is about personal development, not assessment. You learn at your own pace, when and where you want on any device.

My current work as a coach, consultant, speaker and author ensures the course content is grounded in the reality of the world of work.

You also gain access to my experience of developing people and organisations in a wide range of sectors over many years, and to the breadth and depth of my network of specialists and experts.

My goal is for you to walk away more impressed with yourself than with the course.

Coaching you to be clearer, more confident and purposeful so you take the job and career actions that are right for you.

David helps you to develop and grow beyond what you think yourself capable - to progress your career, gain a more meaningful future and work identity, or enhance your current job performance.

We all need to learn to leap again and again in our working lives - developing new skills, new knowledge, and adapting our mindset and behaviours for changing personal and business circumstances.

Because the world does not stand still.

Many people later in life say they wished they had known more when they were younger. You can avoid that trap by empowering yourself early on and navigating your career with confidence and skill.

Many people focus on technical skills without embracing the mindset, attitudes and so-called soft skills that are so vital in working life. Soft skills are tough! And they are transferrable.

You will have a more fulfilling and successful working life by investing in lifelong learning and understanding what it takes to be successful.

This course will help you learn to leap as a young professional!

David is a coach, workshop facilitator, speaker, blogger, and author on jobs, careers and employability development.
