...  about our leadership and coach training programs
From the moment I first approached Saba for help in preparing our group's away-day, I felt reassured that it would be a well-planned and professionally executed event. Saba has an impressive understanding of the issues that underpin effective team dynamics, and a vast experience in identifying the best approaches to identify strengths and focus on solutions, in an energetic and positive way.

I already knew Saba by the collaboration we had at IDC. The fact that Saba embodies Leadership Coaching is already a success factor of this workshop. 
The Training is holistic in the way that it shows the different aspects of Leader Coach and provides very concrete, powerful and simple tools to implement.The content is based on up to date research work.


Philippe Laffaire - Professional Coach ICF PCC and Supervisor Coach, Pursens

I had the privilege of participating in a 10 module Coaching programme facilitated by Saba and I must say that the content and her teaching style shifted my perspective as a coach. 

I coach women from many different nationalities, cultures and religions, so increasing my own cultural awareness through her questioning was a very powerful process. Thank you, Saba.

Le charisme et le professionnalisme de Saba font des merveilles, je l'ai constaté lors des ateliers auxquels j'ai participé et son World café dans le pays de Gex est une expérience inoubliable. Merci Saba de ta générosité dans le partage."

The training fully met our needs for a specialized course for coaches working on the professional insertion of qualified migrant women. The content, documentation, balance between theory and practice, the exercises and group were most enriching. The experience and human qualities of the trainers were excellent.
Massia Kanneman, Coaching Manager, Geneva
I have participated in many corporate coaching trainings and this is the first time that after a workshop I see the immediate use and application of the tools and coaching models into real life situations. Saba has the capacity to convert deep and complex theories into easy to use tools that have the power to profoundly transform interpersonal interactions. I am certain that the tools that I acquired in this 2 day workshop will accompany me throughout my career. 
Isabel Prieto, HR professional and Career Coach
The course was a valuable introduction to the science and practice of being a "leader-coach" at work. I walked away with tools I could use immediately as well as an appreciation of the importance of establishing coaching cultures in the health sector - particularly during periods of change and transition. Saba is a masterful teacher and coach. 

Asiya Odugleh-Kolev, public health professional

The course was an excellent introduction to coaching with simple, practical steps that can be used right away. It is a new approach to inter-personal communications, based on scientific evidence which strongly contributes to our work. A brilliant course.

I would highly recommend the "Leader Coach - Foundations of Coaching at Work" course for anyone seeking to learn more about the theory and practice of coaching at work and further developing your skills. The course gives you immediate practical exercises to use the knowledge and skills, and learning by doing. The group feedback as well as expert knowledge of Saba Imru-Mathieu gives you the tools to further develop your own coaching style and expertise. Especially interesting to learn what makes a good Manager and a good Leader.

...  about coaching supervision
My coaching and supervision with Saba was essential in getting me back on track for my work and my coaching certification after suffering an important setback. Her focused, professional and warm support made it easy to progress towards new goals and clarify the right paths to take in order to re-align my work.

Sandra Richez
Global MBA Career Services, EDHEC Business School

I cannot recommend Saba highly enough. From the moment I met Saba as an instructor on the IDC coaching certification, I felt trust and support. When I was not "on form" she knew and gently reassured me. I also learnt that I was capable of achieving things I had not imagined possible before. If that is not a successful coach, I do not know what it is! Thank you Saba for giving me perspective with a gentle breeze."
Katie Klein
Senior HR Business Partner, Learning & Development, Columbia

Saba Imru est une superbe démonstration d'un excellent coach en action. Elle allie professionnalisme avec chaleur, générosité et énergie pour une mise en ressources et une avancée vers l'action gratifiantes. Chaque séance avec elle est un plaisir et gage d'une prise de conscience pertinente.

P.J. Coach en processus de certification
I was supervised by Saba during my ICF certification and I have to say that Saba's style is really unique. She made me feel unique. Her professionalism combines to a incredible capability of listening enabled me to make real progress. Saba is a beautiful soul, one you meet and that you never forget.

Céline Chatti
Professional Coach
I found the supervision coaching very useful to keep on track on a difficult corporate coaching mandate, with a diverse set of managers to coach in an extremely tense organization climate.  Bouncing off ideas, testing coaching approaches and reinforcing my confidence as a coach are some of the positive outcomes of supervision.
E. W.  Professional Coach

I really enjoyed Saba's presence and tactfulness through the coaching process as well as her focus towards our common objective, leading and redirecting when necessary our discussions and topics in order to achieve my goals on a timely manner. Her life and professional experience was an added asset, not only for our coaching sessions but also during the whole professional coach certification process."
