Coaching

Continuous coaching for your teams, because a strong strategy means little without effective execution by brilliant teams.

CliftonStrengths

At Be Brave, we are passionate advocates of CliftonStrengths® (formerly StrengthsFinder®) because we have witnessed its transformative impact on teams and individuals. Our team, including qualified StrengthsFinder® coach Rialette, who has over 20 years of teaching and training experience, has successfully coached over 1,000 individuals and trained teams at organisations such as BMW, Liberty, Aerosud Aviation, Sanlam, and FNB.

We believe that focusing on strengths enables teams to achieve higher engagement, productivity, and satisfaction.

Implementing CliftonStrengths® is beneficial for various types of teams:

  • Leadership Teams: Understanding each leader's strengths can improve decision-making and strategic planning.

  • Newly-Formed Teams: Identifying team members' strengths early on can accelerate bonding and establish a strong foundation for collaboration.

  • Cross-Functional Teams: Recognizing diverse strengths aids in leveraging varied expertise, leading to innovative solutions.

  • Remote or Hybrid Teams: Understanding individual strengths can enhance virtual collaboration and communication.

  • Teams Experiencing Conflict: Awareness of each member's strengths can facilitate conflict resolution and improve team dynamics.

By focusing on strengths, teams can assign roles more effectively, enhance communication, and create a more engaged and productive work environment.

The Enneagram

At Be Brave, we are passionate about the transformative power of the Enneagram in team development. Our experienced Enneagram coach, Elizma Badenhorst, brings a wealth of experience in guiding individuals and teams on their paths to self-discovery and personal growth.

The Enneagram is a profound personality framework that identifies nine distinct types, each with unique motivations, fears, and behaviors. By understanding these dynamics, teams can enhance communication, foster empathy, and improve collaboration.

Implementing the Enneagram is beneficial for various types of teams:

  • Leadership Teams: Understanding each leader's Enneagram type can improve decision-making and strategic planning.

  • Newly-Formed Teams: Identifying team members' Enneagram types early on can accelerate bonding and establish a strong foundation for collaboration.
