You’re free to adjust your direction as you go – we’re with you every step of the way.
Because the training is experience-based, with theory, demonstration and hands-on practice woven together, you’ll be able to apply what you learn right from day one. Many participants notice the impact after just the first session.

Together we change the world
The training is suitable for supervisors
“Coaching training provides tremendous support for supervisory work”
– Kenneth Ståhls
Together we change the world
The training enhance self-leadership and career development
“The tools and insights I gained about myself and others through this training have been incredibly important and perhaps a key to success, or certainly a key to success.”
– Daniel Hjulfors, Snellman
"When I was laid off for production and financial reasons, I wanted to take advantage of the training obligation offered by my former employer. I sought training that would complement my CV, provide concrete tools for being a supervisor, and where I could also learn and grow as a person. I chose Positive Solutions' Business & Life Coach Certification Program and have been very satisfied with my choice. In the training, I learned to listen to myself and others and to understand my life values. As part of the training, I completed the Core Strengths SDI 2.0 assessment, and now I better understand which strengths I like to use and what motivates me. I realized that I had been applying for completely wrong types of jobs and would not have enjoyed them even if I had been selected. When I applied for jobs that truly interested me, I immediately succeeded. Now, in my new role as a Team Leader, I get to use my strengths and be a modern coaching supervisor. I can utilize the coaching tools learned in the training to listen, support, and help my subordinates grow, develop, and perform their tasks."
Elina Trofimczuk, Team Leader
"Warm thanks for the training! The overall program was comprehensive and well-structured. The teaching was clear, and all questions were answered. Everyone's strengths were highlighted. The work was both professional and personally tailored. The training provided comprehensive and concrete tools to start a new career! Thank you, Christine and Tom!"
Vilma Hjort
"I have started several training programs during my sixteen-year entrepreneurial career and have left them all unfinished because I felt the courses were a waste of time after just a few hours. This was the first training that captivated me from the very first second and carried me through to the end. At no point did I think about quitting. Absolutely challenging and rewarding."
Jari Johansson, entrepreneur
"My life-changing experience in every way"
Tarja Halonen, HR Manager
"Overall, a well-executed course. The teaching method was practical, and there were plenty of opportunities for hands-on practice. The instructor was very skilled and conducted the training days with great expertise. The training was not overly serious, but rather included elements of playfulness."
Heikki Ihasalo
"I can warmly recommend this training to many! The training is suitable for both personal and professional development. Christine, as a trainer and her authentic self, has made a lasting impression. I have gained much more from this training than I could have imagined. I am grateful that such training exists and that I have been able to participate. A big thank you to Christine, Anne, and Tom!"
