Our Offerings

I found Bernadette always had a positive attitude in our sessions, she was empathetic and had great listening skills. It was therefore easy to share information with her.

She encouraged me to share and asked me to explain if she was not sure what I meant – this also helped me to understand problems better.

She did not pass judgement and remained objective and honest.

Bernadette has unquestionable integrity and I would highly recommend her to help put problems in perspective and to arrive at practical / workable solutions

As a new team that was growing quickly, we assumed roles that took us from being mainly operational to team leaders and strategic drivers of the team. As we are still small, we often find ourselves socially interacting with all team members but also wanting to assert ourselves as leaders.

Not having an HR background made it difficult to navigate certain situations without inserting your bias or logic.

This is when we sought assistance through this course: HR for non-HR managers. Our main objective was to get perspective into HR processes and operations and how to create an inclusive anti-bias environment. We learned a lot about remuneration and rewarding performance, how to communicate with non-performing staff members and what steps to take to turn that around.

Learning the mindset of someone who has fallen into certain categories allowed us to understand where they are but also how to get them onto the right path. One of the most important take home from the course was having a standard working and onboarding process from each department.

We appreciate the knowledge that was shared and have already implemented what was learned.

I have had the pleasure of working with

Bernadette for many years.

She has coached me through a number of challenges in the corporate world.

Bernadette has a natural talent for helping people achieve their goals.

Her style is supportive but also challenging and she gives constructive feedback to help you grow.

Bernadette genuinely cares about the people she works with and takes the time to understand their individual needs.

She is patient, approachable and has a knack for putting people at ease.

I would like to recommend Bernadette as a life coach.

I am really enjoying my sessions with her.

I wanted to work on my tolerance and patience levels, as well as learning to set goals and lessen procrastinating….all of which I am improving on.

Thank you Bernadette.

Collette will change your life as she certainly has changed my perspective on Life.  My onlt regret is not having been introduced to her earlier on in my life and trust me when I say I have done many forms of coaching and counselling hours.

Always a clear perspective, realistic goals on what you as an individual wish and will achieve, and reflection.

Her warmth, laughter and sincerity, has transformed my from the Worrier to a Warrior.

With gratitude and Thank You Always

Lindy

After working with Bernadette, I am able to create a vision for myself and define my priorities to create a better life/work balance.

Through Bernadette’s supportive coaching style I was able to gain confidence and made a significant career move that was long overdue.

I am not sure that I would have made the move without Bernadette’s know-how, encouragement, support and guidance.

She is great in understanding the individual’s wants and needs.

I would highly recommend Bernadette to anyone.

I would like to thank Bernadette for assisting and coaching me on how to approach interviews. It’s been 23 years since I last had to go for an interview and so much has changed in the industry with numerous challenges .  Thank you for your time, warmth and patience to guide me in how to prepare, what to expect and how to sell yourself and then practice practice practice.  When I apply for a position I know I have the experience for the specific job but to bring that across in the correct manner that is where I was lacking.  You helped me to structure my answer in the correct manner so that the interviewer sees I have confidence, I have the skills set and experience that they are looking for.  Which is a very good feeling.  I am truly grateful.  I would definitely recommend you to my friends.

Hi Collette,

I just wanted to Thank You so much for meeting with me this morning
[On Zoom]! I found it so incredibly informative not only about my TEEN [who you
are working with] but also about me, hubby and our other child. I chatted to my
TEEN this afternoon about what you had suggested for me and it just felt like
our journey to understand each other better and supporting each other has begun
and I am really excited about it. Thank you for being so understanding and
supportive.

With the many changes which took place in 2020, I needed some external perspective on situations both in my personal life and navigating the new world we all found ourselves in last year. I wanted to realign my thinking. Colette’s insightful knowledge and calming manner during our coaching sessions provided tools and changed perspectives to view outcomes differently. She leans into looking at things from a positive place.

What a joy it is to work with Collette Merritt!

I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed our session this morning. I contacted Collette specifically in her capacity as an Enneagram coach. I have studied the Enneagram for over a year and yet still remained confused around which type I fell into (having taken tests with varying results). The one-on-one coaching around the enneagram was such a fun and insightful process. I gained an understanding not only around my own type, but also started to see how the enneagram presented itself in my friends and family. I felt really comfortable with who I am by the time I left the session.

Thank you Collette for a truly amazing session!
