Storytelling is one of the most powerful life coaching tools when working with clients. Popular among all the coaching techniques available, storytelling provides value from both sides and illustrates what matters to a client in a way they understand.

Whether a story is used by the coach to illustrate a concept or by the client to share insight, storytelling has an incredible variety of uses in a coaching relationship.
Business speakers also frequently use storytelling to engage and inspire their audience. By engaging with the audience through stories and anecdotes, they can create a unique and meaningful connection that allows them to convey their message in a more effective way.

HR management is a combination of both art and science. As the business environment continues to evolve, there is an increased emphasis on the role of the HR professional in creating a culture of growth, authenticity, and productivity. Gone are the days when HR focused solely on administrative and recruitment tasks.

In the ever-evolving world of human resources, finding and hiring talented individuals for the right roles is critical. But it's not just about filling a seat—it's about forming meaningful, authentic partnerships between employers and potential hires. In this blog post, we'll explore how to do just that. From the perspective of someone who's been in the HR game for years and has founded a boutique recruitment firm, we'll discuss the differences between fill-the-seat recruiters and true talent, and how to create genuine connections that will benefit both parties.

In a world where everyone is trying to outshine each other, it can be difficult to stay true to yourself and your values. Professor Adam Grant wrote that people who are perceived as “highly authentic—they know and express their genuine selves... receive significantly lower performance evaluations and are significantly less likely to get promoted into leadership roles.” So does that mean it pays to be inauthentic?
Staying authentic and true to who you are can be the key to success in the workplace. It pays to be yourself, but only if you do it in a manner that is both respectful of the people around you and beneficial for you.
As a former corporate CFO turned CFO for entrepreneurs, Bridgette Boucha has invaluable knowledge and experience in scaling her own business while staying true to herself. In fact, Bridgette firmly believes that she found great success in entrepreneurship when she let her true self shine in the workplace.

In a world that is constantly trying to define who you should be, it can be daunting to find the courage and self-belief to stay true to yourself. However, it is possible to continuously build your identity and find the path that is right for you.
It’s important to not forge a path solely based on your past accomplishments. Everyone can relate to the feeling of being defined by their past. Whether it be a bad experience, a mistake, or good experiences, such as accolades, awards, and accompaniments– our past can often define how we view ourselves and how others view us. But that can cause us to feel overwhelmed, anxious, and in a state of panic.

She holds a Master of Physiotherapy as well as a Master of Clinical Science, has her Sports Physiotherapy Diploma, is a Fellow of the Academy of...
