"I had heard a good deal about Wai K and how his training program does wonders; after having attended his program, I feel what I had heard was not enough!

My experience has been two pronged; as a participant of the program as well as the training organizer for my company. In both capacities, I have yet to experience a program better than this one. As a participant, aspiring to get certified as a Coach from ICF, I was initially overwhelmed with the amount of content that Wai K had laid out. My apprehension was overload of information and ending up unable to put only a little bit of it in to practice. I was wrong to my relief and disbelief. The curriculum has been designed and was paced in a manner that it allowed participants to sail through it, with right amount of practicing and appropriately scheduled recapitulation exercises.

Not to forget the disciplined fashion that Wai K follows to unroll the concepts, tools and techniques, ensuring inclusion of each participant and encouraging them to contribute & actively participate. Another unique feature of this program is the self-reflection that participants experience while practicing, it has been a journey of self-awareness for me, and I could safely say that for each participant.

As Trainings Head, I absolutely enjoyed working and interacting with Wai K, he is a thorough professional who is laser focused and committed to get future coaches to learn. To me, this is one of the best investments that my company has made in terms of people development, without a doubt. I strongly recommend this Coaching Certification Program to all aspiring coaches!"

I'd like to share one coaching experience that was particularly rewarding for me. The client was working for a very large American IT company as a Managing Director, responsible for two countries with a few hundred employees in her organization.

After some communication and getting acquainted with her, she decided to work with me. Despite my years of working experience, I was excited and yet nervous at the possibility that I may be perceived as amateur coach since I have only just starting out. Compounding my anxiety was the fact that I had requested for a paid assignment to work with her. This has added my pressure to deliver. Anyway, I asked myself, "What is the worst thing that can happen? At most, I don't get to see her after the first session!"

As a result of our first session, she had agreed to take a few actions but I was not confident at that point if our second session will happen. We met and after the second session, she immediately became clear about what she wanted as her "next phase". She was so excited that she told me it was a WOW experience for her, having gained clarity and insights in just two sessions! Impressed with her outcome, she said that she would gladly introduce her friends and business colleagues to work with me. In her words, "This is good stuff and I look forward to our next session after completing my action items."

I feel very encouraged and excited with this experience, particularly so, having worked with a client whom I do not know and who had held very senior leadership position in a multi-national company. What started with apprehension, fear and anxiety has ended up very well with tangible results. My coach training and my past leadership experience has indeed paid off. This positive experience have further boosted my confidence and I now know that I can make a difference with clients holding senior leadership positions!

Thank you Wai K for preparing me for this rewarding journey!

"The Coaching for Mastery Performance course offered by Wai K has made a big difference to me professionally and personally. Wai K is the best role model imaginable of a person dedicated to helping others learn, grow and to help them fulfill their greatest capacity possible. The course is designed in a way perfectly tailored to my needs: the 8 day program takes us, the beginning coach candidates through a personal journey of discovery, passing carefully placed milestones and checkpoints, where in the end, when you reach your final destination, you are surprised to find that the journey was pleasant and refreshing, not arduous nor exhausting! I have found a new appreciation for the depth of development and self awareness needed to become a fully fledged certified coach, and for the profession of coaching itself, through Wai K's gentle yet persisten and highly skilled t teaching, mentoring and coaching of all of us. Thank you for a great start to a lifelong journey of learning!"

"The entire workshop was a rewarding experience from both the professional and personal perspective for me. As a result of this training I now think completely differently about the whole idea of people needing to have ownership of their own issues rather than us feeling like we have to be solution providers.

I have been working the last two years on developing my listening skills because I had an instinct that this is what people want most from us in any conversation, but your coaching session has enabled me to go to a whole new level in all my communications. The workshop has therefore definitely resulted in powerful positive change for me. Already I am finding that I have to check myself way less often than ever before for coming up with an "answer" in my head to address the other person's issue, or feeling like I need to steer things in a certain direction to guarantee that there is a result by the end of the session.

So the whole idea of "change happens now" even if it is a baby step for the other person means that our exchange together was valuable is something I always keep in mind. Thanks for the wisdom - and your patience with all of us."

Learning under the tutelage of Wai K was an amazing experience. Like a master wizard, Wai K unfolds the magic of learning. This in itself was a revelation.. one of many 'ah-ha' moments I experienced during the program. Wai K, quickly gained the nickname "sifu", and there is a reason for that. He delivers the program so that participants learn at many levels.

Firstly, at the conscious level, where the 'how-to', the coaching theories and principals are introduced. Then there's the next level, where I experienced the challenges of coaching and sharpened my skills, thru many peer coaching practices, observations and feedback sessions. This proved to be an invaluable learning. And thirdly, at a deeper level, when I found myself having a heightened awareness of who I am and my role as a coach.

In short, the manner in which Wai K puts across the learning points, has a profound impact on who I am as a coach. In this program, it is not just about Learning.. it's also about Discovering. The insights gained from attending this program will last me lifetime, in which ever way I choose to use it. I strongly recommend this program to those of you looking for a meaningful Coaching career.

To my "sifu" - Wai K, thank you for making the program such a memorable experience and I shall always hold you in high regard and as my role-model. And to my classmates a big thank you for opening your hearts to me, for your wisdom and for your friendship.

It has been an invaluable learning on what coaching is all about and it has certainly enriched my life in many ways; personal mastery and professional development. The most memorable and difficult chapter in this learning journey would be challenging my core beliefs, in particular, my strongly rooted assumptions. Years back during a motivational talk, I failed to break a pencil with my finger and the past failure has remained in my memory and shaped my thinking. November 14, 2014 marked a significant milestone. I experienced the power of coaching. Wai K have coached me to overcome the inaccurate assumptions and helped me successfully breakthrough my limiting beliefs. Through this memorable coaching session, I walked through the entire process, identifying my core limiting beliefs, that I was not consciously aware of, which was my assumption that I will not be able to break the pencil with my finger. Powerful questions were raised to locate the source of my assumptions. With these shifts, I successfully broke the pencil; witnessed by course mates and captured in video! The old belief had been shaken and replaced with a more useful belief and this has produced positive feelings. This course has changed my perspective and mindset in all aspects of my life. I find it really useful especially it can be applied for self-coaching. The coaching skills comes in handy as I am considering several major decisions in my life and I am at the cross road. I have decided to see things from different perspectives and do things differently to produce different results. Wai K, you have given me the best gift (imparting coaching knowledge to me) and this is definitely the key highlight of my life in 2014.

"My name is Shakeel Ahmad and I am heading the biggest sales zone of Nestle Pakistan. I am leading a diverse team of 68 members with 10 direct reports. As we know that today organizations are spending the biggest chunk of their training budgets on 'Leadership Development'. The objective is very clear, 'Unleashing the full potential of people'. I have been the part of different Leadership Programs and when I got the call from my Human Resource colleague that I have been chosen from the whole sales function of my company to attend the 'Coaching Program', my feeling was not much different versus any other leadership development program. But I was wrong this time as it was entirely different experience altogether which had positively impacted my personal & professional life.

I would like to briefly share my experience of coaching program with all of you. Coaching in itself is a very powerful approach of people development and the way Wai K conducts the whole program is a life time experience. I think you would not believe that Wai K has not used even a single PowerPoint slide in this 07 days program, it was all about sharing knowledge, experiences, viewpoints and discussions around ideas. It is about practicing the coaching competencies, tools & different models. It is about bringing new situations to discuss & explore various options and horizons. Wai K has this unique quality of engaging people & making us reflect and think. The technique Wai K uses is writing on charts, our group named it 'Wai K Treasure'. This beautifully orchestrated program first builds the coaching fundamentals of the participants through engaged learning & experiencing followed by actually entering into coaching relationship with coachees. After few weeks of real life coaching experience, participants again joined the program for 'Advance Coaching' techniques & skills.

The part two of the program was even better learning experience because now participants shared their own coaching experience, the real life issues & challenges. It is almost a month now that I underwent this coaching program, it has largely changed not only the way I lead my team but also my personal life, the way I deal with my wife & children; a very positive change indeed. I am becoming more effective at my work & my personal life is also improving. I would strongly recommend this Certified Master Performance Coach program to you as I am sure it will change your paradigm the way it has changed mine. All the Best & Happy learning experience."

"The CMPC program by far exceeded my expectations. As a psychologist, I have attended many workshops, conferences and continued education programs; this training is of a mastery standard. The coaching process taught in this program has brought me powerful life changing insights, a new awareness of the human psyche and has taken my skills to a higher level.

The training agenda flowed smoothly from one topic to the other with a focus on discussion and input from the participants. The most successful achievement in my opinion was the facilitator's expert ability to create a safe environment for the participants to bond, have fun, share ideas, insights and valuable personal experience which was highly conducive to learning. I highly recommend this program to anyone interested in connecting in an authentic manner with fellow human beings, whether professionally or personally."
