Participant Testimonials

This Diploma was an excellent opportunity to develop the right skills as an executive coach and an OD consultant. At the same time, it was a self exploration journey that increased my self awareness and helped me develop and change. This was a very critical milestone as the more awareness is heightened, the more capable the OD or coaching intervention is.
Foteini Fevri (British American Tobacco)

This Diploma has been a very challenging process which created high self-awareness; the ongoing challenges keep you always eager for the next step, the next learning. It’s really worth it taking this risk.
Ioannis Kouris (Vestas Hellas)

I participated in Executive Coaching and OD Diploma based on a testimonial of a colleague of mine I trust. “Go”, she said “you will discover yourself and it will be useful for your job.” So, I participated to a very interesting for my self-awareness Diploma which changed some aspects of my behaviour. Also, I applied some theory I’ve learned to my work.

Unique transformational experience, where I had the opportunity to understand better myself and the others. Impact’s program contributed significantly to my personal and professional development.
Nikos Chatzigeorgiou (Microsoft Hellas)

It was the most intense and effective learning experience I’ve ever been through. It changed the way I perceive and confront people and situations. After completing the course I feel not only confident about applying the new knowledge but a whole different person.
Eleni Liakou

A very good experience in understanding the business of coaching and how to apply it. A very good chance to see yourself through others people’s point of view.
Spyros Banos

My experience after the Diploma is best described by this scene in “The Matrix” where Morpheus says: “This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill – the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill – you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.” A highly recommended red pill!

A life changing experience! Practical, thought-evoking, reflective.
Irini Chaviara (Novartis)

An exciting transformational journey! A very demanding content and a powerful process in a self-regulated context that helped me discover, explore and experience my patterns and wholeness and showed me the way to what I potentially can become!
Alexandra Vetsika (Starbucks)

The Diploma is an experience. It’s a personal and organizational evolution. It’s not a seminar as one might think of. You learn through your own experience of change.
Nicholas Kondakis (Boussias Communications)

My participation in Impact’s Coaching & OD Diploma was a unique experience. I learned a lot of new things and I improved myself both as a person and as a professional.
Yiannis Koutrakis (Microsoft)

There are really very few moments of epiphany that one has the fortune to experience in his life. This course provided everyone with at least one such a-ha moment. And it turned a bunch of individuals into one cohesive group. These two are more than anyone the one could expect from any course. It was worth both the time and the money.
Dimitris Tsouchlos

If one wants an “out of the box” transformational learning experience, this course is an exceptional opportunity. High-skilled facilitators combined with restless participants create the perfect context for one’s personal and professional development.

The Diploma in Executive Coaching has enabled me as a sales director in the IT industry to gain new and valuable knowledge and experiences. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in shaping and leading the organizations of tomorrow.
Christodoulos Papaphotis, (Microsoft)

Impact approaches executive coaching and organizational development from a different perspective, focusing more on experiential practices rather than just discussing the existing theory. The benefit that the participant derives out of this program structure is multiple. From one hand familiarizes easily with the various models and methodologies and acquires experience. From the other hand builds a common professional background with the other participants, and has the option to become member of a group that extends its activity beyond the course duration.
Annalisa Smyrli, (AstraZeneca)

The most important gain of attending this course was the in-depth opportunity to explore myself as an individual personality, as a team member, as an HR Consultant, as a coach. We were guided very efficiently to work on the core of coaching: self-awareness.
Dimitra Karatolou

The Executive Coaching and Organisational Development Diploma gave me the opportunity to develop as a person and as a professional.
