Transformational Coaching

“Truly exceptional”

​

CEO, Content Marketing Bureau

​

“I wholeheartedly recommend the High Impact Communications program led by David Joshua through Henley Business School. As I continue to evolve and grow, investing in transformative experiences like this is crucial. This program offered a profound opportunity for introspection, helping me identify areas for improvement and refine my communication skills.

David's unique approach, focusing on the head-to-heart transition, resonated deeply with me. His philosophy highlights the power of communication as a catalyst for creating impact, achieving dreams, and leaving a lasting legacy.

I had the privilege of one-on-one coaching sessions with David, which were truly exceptional. His genuine care, empowering guidance, and expertise make him an outstanding coach for the big pitches - landing big out there ideas. He embodies the qualities of a champion, and I feel fortunate to have worked with him.

As I embark on my journey of writing a book and returning to the stage, I recognise the importance of a coach to help you do intent full communication, influence and persuade.

If you're seeking a coach to help youbreak through barriers and unlock your full potential, look no further than David Joshua."

“A platform for behaviour change.”

​

Executive Head of Marketing, Discovery (Vitality)

​

“What's unique about David is the speed and efficiency with which he combines theory with practical application to ensure a platform for behaviour change is delivered.

This element surpassed that of other courses we’ve embarked on - placing people in an environment which allows for real-time immediate growth. Some of my team's comments were “I have taken away skills I know I will use for the rest of my career as well as in my personal life”. Our teams found the experience “fresh” and finished the course feeling excited.

David’s coaching stems from his own personal development journey, which means that he knows what it takes to effect personal behaviour change. Through deep insights and observation, he identifies the underlying drivers of your behaviour to identify simple and easily implementable solutions.”

​

CHRO, Discovery (Vitality)

​

“The Resonance learning journey achieved measurably better outcomes than previous business school solutions we have used to accelerate our talent’s transition into leaders. What makes it even more remarkable is that it was delivered at significantly less cost, achieved in far less time, and was a genuinely enjoyable (though highly challenging) experience for the talent who were fortunate enough to be selected for it.”

COO, The Co-Op

​

​

“If you are on the hunt for leadership coaching in a safe space, on any aspect related to personal mastery, look no further.”

Head of Learning & Development, First Rand Bank

​

​

“It is difficult to distil into mere words the impact my time with David has had on me both professionally and personally. I sought out David at a pivotal point in my career where  I needed to transition from leading through the lens of subject matter expertise towards being a more influential leader. Whilst confident of my craft I needed support to help me step into the next level of leadership with boldness while still remaining authentic – honouring the sense of who I am. I was clear that I still wanted to look at myself in the mirror and still be able to recognize myself. I learnt so much from David including, use of the body as a tool to demonstrate executive presence, the ability self-observe and maintain composure and sovereignty in challenging moments. We did this in 5 sessions and I that is testament to David’s expertise in his craft. The work is never done but I am on my way. If you are on the hunt for leadership coaching in a safe space, on any aspect related to personal mastery, look no further.” 

Dudu Moloko, Group Head of Learning & Development, First Rand Bank
 

“Highly recommend him as a modern, forward thinking, inspirational leadership expert and coach!”

​

Chief People Officer, The Co-Op

​

“We engaged David to support our leaders on their leadership journey. Very quickly, he established psychological safety with the team and from this, was able to develop a bespoke series of workshops.  His content was backed up with evidence, as well as personal experience, which allowed him to quickly captivate, motivate and inspire our leaders.  His delivery was authentic, energetic and fast paced, whilst at the same time flexible in addressing the needs of the audience and different personality styles.  

​

 Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with many experiencing tangible results in themselves and with their teams after the first workshop. A number of our leaders have also engaged in coaching, with some finding it so beneficial, they have requested further sessions. 

​

We look forward to continuing our relationship with David and would highly recommend him as a modern, forward thinking, inspirational leadership expert and coach!”

Natalie Clare, Chief People Officer, The Co-Op

David's insights and tangible tips transformed my communication and business development effectiveness, unlocking a deep understanding that I hadn't reached before. What sets David apart is his profoundly human approach – he creates a space that not only makes you feel psychologically safe and seen but also challenges you enough to completely shift your mindset and actions.

Having been around numerous coaches in my career, David stands head and shoulders above the rest. His unique ability to seamlessly blend pragmatic techniques with profound wisdom on presence, empathy, and purpose is nothing short of awe-inspiring.

“A perfect score from the C-Suite delegates”

Leadership Development Programme Lead, Wellhub

​

​

“David really is a very skilled facilitator who manages to generate connection and transformation in the participants! I worked alongside David on a C-Suite level leadership program (and Senior Leaders as well) for a large global technology company. The program was made up of 6 modules with the most diverse leadership themes, customized for the client's reality.

​

Throughout the program, David proved to be an exceptional professional who delighted the client (and program participants) from the beginning. In module evaluations, participant feedback was full of praise for David, including: his energy, adaptability, presence, attentive listening, and ability to lead discussions and interactions between participants, allowing discussions to flow and tools to be applied immediately.

​

The results of this program were very positive for the organization and this is certainly due to the excellent work of David, who at the end of the program was able to obtain a perfect score (from the C-Suite delegates) for the instructor's feedback!

​

Working with David was an honor, I was able to learn a lot from our content exchanges and co-constructions. Thanks for always being so available and open to constant improvements!”

Larissa Takayama, Wellhub Leadership Development Programme lead

"David is head and shoulders above any previous training / coaching I have experienced! He made the learning environment safe to be open, and his style is extremely interactive and engaging with simple but effective techniques."

Head of Retail, The Co-Op

​

​

"The impact of the leadership journey and coaching with David has been enormous on both my relationships at work and at home. I am definitely a calmer person now, and don’t get triggered by strong personalities the way I used to: I now respond with a calm and curious approach.... This has helped our relationship enormously and we now work better as a team.... Also, I now encourage my team to give open and honest feedback (which they have embraced), and this has definitely made the team a stronger group.

Thank you David."

Daphne East, Head of Retail, The Co-Op

“Would absolutely recommend his training to other team and business leaders.”

Investment Director, Investec

“David’s charisma and enthusiasm, alongside his focus on tailoring individual and team development journeys, resulted in me taking multiple key new mindsets away from the time we spent together…
 
David’s training provided more junior members of my team with valuable insights into how to engage with clients and colleagues (and maybe partners!). For the more senior members, it challenged our status quo mindset, and encouraged us to take different viewpoints.
 
I am really pleased that many team members have requested additional 1:1 training with David following our sessions, and would absolutely recommend his training to other team and business leaders.”

Nick Russell ~ Senior Investment Director, Rathbones London

“Far exceeded my expectations: it is vastly different to any other training course”

Litigation Manager, Old Mutual

​

​

“This course far exceeded my expectations: it is vastly different from any other training I have been on. The content is well-structured and positively thought-provoking.
 
My one-on-one coaching session with David was extremely humbling… In a world full of numbers, I tend to get caught up in the details. However, this course was most enlightening as it gave me an understanding of where my major areas of development are and how to significantly improve on them, which has enabled me to better come out of my shell.
 
I would certainly recommend this course as well as the one-on-one sessions to all who intend to excel in their corporate careers. This course will definitely give you the edge.”

Aadil Akoojee ~ Litigation Manager, Old Mutual

“David was able to unlock a part of me that was blocked for such a long time. He truly is an incredible human being and is exceptionally powerful in changing the way we think and function.”

Client Desirability Analyst, First Rand Bank

“I spent just a mere 2 days with David and he was able to unlock a part of me that was blocked for such a long time. He truly is an incredible human being and is exceptionally powerful in changing the way we think and function. David has an incredible way of teaching an audience but somehow almost lock into what you need individually, 2 days and I walked out of his session with a new view of the way I engage daily and the way I can communicate to change, influence and be impactful in my personal life and my work life. I am forever grateful that I got such a grand opportunity to work with someone as unique as David, everyone should take the time out to invest in themselves and I feel that is exactly what I did through being taught by David. what a gift you are David, may everyone be lucky enough to take something from you, you have so much to give.”
