Thegan’s leadership journey has consistently been driven by a deep-seated passion for developing and advancing individuals. Initially drawn to cultivating high-potential leaders during his early leadership roles, he seamlessly transitioned from a successful executive career to obtain a formal executive leadership coaching qualification and to pursue his passion for executive leadership coaching and consulting.

He challenges his clients to consider the broader context and explore alternate realities and options in support of their growth and improvement. His international clientele, spanning various industries and sectors, intensely value how easily he builds rapport, ensuring coaching sessions that are safe, conducive, open spaces, built on trust, and devoid of judgement.

What distinguishes Thegan’s work is the impact that extends beyond goal attainment, through the understanding of underlying drivers and onto lasting and profound self-discovery and the transformative growth of his clients. No more mechanistic and transactional coaching sessions. Are you ready to experience a flowing journey of deep reflection, constructive challenge, self-discovery, “aha” moments and breakthroughs?
