I have had the privilege of working with Corrie as my coach for a while. He has provided me with invaluable advice, guidance, and tools, which I have used to make continuous, incremental improvements in my professional and personal life. We have covered many topics including health and wellness, productivity e.g. daily routines, networking.

He is also very knowledgeable and well connected in the MENA region, and I have been able to leverage that to build my regional network. As a CIO/CTO, this has enabled me to find more leaders who need tech leadership advisory or executive help.

Corrie is very responsive to his clients, and his style is clear, direct, and focussed, which I like.

I would definitely recommend Corrie to anyone who wants to accelerate their journey.

He has such a compelling speaking style, and easily engaged and challenged our packed house of L&D and HR professionals from across the GCC. His keynote, “Business is Personal: Driving Sustainable Impact Through Employee Engagement” was delivered without notes or slides, and yet was armed with powerful science and energizing stories that gave our audience practical and easily implementable tools for creating meaning at work that drives performance and profitability. Everyone learned from Dr. Corrie and enjoyed his philosophy on business. I believe now that business is truly personal. I look forward to working with him into our future events.
