What past participants have said about the Inner Spark Program…
The Inner Spark Program provided me with the opportunity to fully reflect on my state of being, to gain greater insight and mastery of my emotions and thinking, and to practice new ways of being in a safe environment. The program has helped me understand my practice as a leader and to lead more effectively, especially at work.

I recommend this course for new leaders and those with a lot of experience. The facilitators created a fantastic space to learn about and test out concepts / models that were new to me. Time was given at the beginning of each session for catch up and review learning that had been integrated / practiced between sessions. A number of teaching styles were used which assisted me to warm up creatively to ideas that could have stayed in a theoretical space but actually were integrated much deeper into a feeling space also. Learning about the self, whilst learning about models, will assist you to position yourself with more confidence in the workplace (and in life).

Inner Spark gave me powerful new frameworks for working with others and designing change and learning programs. The information was presented in a way which challenged me to reflect on how I approach change, influence and relationships. I obtained significant new insights which led to a deep shift in how I interact with others, now with significantly increased confidence.
I am grateful for the opportunity to spend time with experienced, mastery-level facilitators Jane Morgan and Maureen Owen, and gain a new and supportive network with fellow participants. Experienced Project and Change Leader in public sector |
The Inner Spark program was a timely opportunity for me to invest in myself, share experiences with likeminded professionals. That resulted in an improved approach to my practice and business. Jane and Maureen not only delivered some fantastic content - they did it in a way that challenged each of us to new insights and supported us to convert our thoughts into action. As a facilitator, it was also educational to watch how they tailored their approach for each of us and managed to keep us all engaged. A great
program that I highly recommend. Independent Organisation Consultant |
I highly recommend the Inner Spark program for anyone who is open to exploring deeper into their role as a leader. I found it has led to greater insights and confidence in my leadership role. Jane and Maureen complement each other so successfully as facilitators – they are an inspiration and truly exceptional with a wealth of experience in the real world. I had no expectations as to what the Inner Spark Course would give me when I enrolled – what a delight that it has given me more than I could have imagined in terms of personal and work performance growth thanks to the expert facilitators - Maureen and Jane. This is group facilitation in a very trusting respectful place - I always felt valued and safe thanks to the skilful facilitators - we all found that we grew from one another’s contribution in the group which was more than we could have imagined.

This program helped to calibrate the team and allow them to move forward and be on the same page. Prior to undertaking the program, the team was a good team, but was slightly disjointed and did not feel confident to contribute to all discussions/projects. I believe that since completing this program the team has been significantly more unified, they have grown in confidence, they now understand the personality types of the team to allow them to work together more cohesively to achieve goals and undertake more meaningful conversations with our clients and in the team. I believe that we got a kick start to allow us to operate on all cylinders!!!

Jane and Maureen are amazing facilitators, and this resulted in an amazing experience. The course not only provided us with a toolkit of strategies that I am using to this day, it also enabled us to discover our strengths and barriers. I left each Inner Spark session with the knowledge of something completely new about myself. Whether it was a strength I never knew I had or a barrier I needed to overcome. Their observation skills are out of this world and the attention and support I gained as an individual was phenomenal. I would 100% recommend this course for anyone who is looking to take themselves to the next level, both professionally as a facilitator and personally as a human.
