It offers a reflective forum in which to review your life and career and make provision for what is ahead. A structured two hour session gives space to reviewing the past, looking at the present and planning for the future. If you wish, the dialogue can be recorded and summarised during the process for you to reflect on. Follow up sessions are recommended.

Alliance partner Gerri Power helps teams and individuals to identify the internal power of resilience which shifts their reliance on the external structures or security to an internal self assurance and taking personal responsibility.
