the Coaching Studio with Guest Ruth Kudzi, MCC
On this episode of the Coaching Studio, I welcome my guest today Ruth Kudzi, MCC. There were many favorite parts to our conversation one had to do with the three things Ruth would have done differently. And what she thinks when coaches say, "My Client would never do XYZ." Join us as we explore ways to open ourselves up, reflect, and not put limits on our clients and what they would or wouldn't do. Taking time to become transparent with ourselves and giving to ourselves what we give to others.
Ruth started in recruitment and people development and moved into education where she helped to embed coaching skills and coaching culture in a number of schools. She is now the CEO of Optimus Coach Academy.
- One of the most highly regarded coach training schools in the UK which has trained over 500 individuals
