““The Self-Leadership course gave me a much deeper understanding of myself as a leader. I learned to recognise my triggers, understand my communication style and strengths, and use that awareness to lead with more calm, clarity, and genuine connection. My biggest takeaway is that real leadership starts with self-awareness, especially when leading a team in the high-pressure yacht environment.””
