South Africa is faced with deep wounds of the past and people of very different social and economic backgrounds often struggle to understand and trust each other. I am the Lead Trainer of the non-profit organisation, The Trust Connection. We believe our NLP leadership training and coaching can significantly assist in the exciting re-building process and accelerate the ‘nation-building’ transformation that still has to happen.
We use local South African and international trainers to run dynamic experiential leadership courses of between 1 and 8 days followed by support coaching. Our course participants usually include a mix of leading non-profit organisation leaders and participants from the business and public sectors. We believe we are at our strongest as individuals and a society when we value and embrace the power that diversity offers us.
In South Africa, there is a culture of Ubuntu, ‘I am because we are’, a core belief of excellence that we look to build in the hearts of each person on our courses. Many of the leaders we work with have developed deep cultures of trust within their own organisations, specifically by using the NLP tools learned and living the values modelled in the courses.
As an NLP Trainer, I have trained with Sue Knight, Robert Dilts and Stephen Gilligan and Michael Carrol and John Grinder.

Taking inspiration from community based, non-profit leaders in South Africa
South Africa is faced with deep wounds of the past and people of very different social and economic backgrounds often struggle to understand and trust each other. Over 25 years after Nelson Mandela became the country’s democratically elected President, it is still a very siloed society.
Yet, when we truly experience the belief of excellence that each of us has the resources we need, we gain access to our own and each other’s creativity. And this makes all the difference in building trust.
Join me as we access our own creativity. And notice the ways that emerge for us to develop transformational trust based relationships.
Learning outcomes
- Accessing your own creativity; we will experiment using approaches modelled from community non-profit leaders
- Exploring what it means to trust yourself in order to trust others
- Using your own creativity as rocket fuel for creating deep, lasting trust-based relationships.
