Changing Stories, Changing Lives

The Genesis Course reaches parts that other courses cannot reach. It had an ideal balance of provocative self examination, mixed with lightness and humour when needed. The sharing seemed to alleviate some confusion and pain for people. It appeared as if the sharing of these stories helped them to loose some of their toxicity – and allowed people to find a way to move forwards with acceptance, wisdom and grace. The team is led by three very powerful, yet gentle and assuring experts, and its testament to their complex personalities that they bring such wisdom and insight to the table. I was a little hesitant to attend this course, fearing it may be “fluffy”. Yet I was proven wrong – and I found it extremely helpful in finding inner strength and confidence from some on-going relationship problems.

I have recommended this course to friends. I say 'Doing this course has transformed the way I approach difficult situations and my life in general. I feel armed with tools that are effective and very simple to use. I feel braver and I feel stronger. The course is well held and I felt supported emotionally and intellectually throughout.'

Katie Whitehouse

Having done so many courses over the years, I was skeptical about what Genesis could offer me but my concern was entirely unfounded. Interbe did a truly masterful and skillful job of creating a spacious and loving environment for transformation. I had an amazing weekend and came away knowing I would go back for more!

Dee Brodie

"I have learnt and gained so much personally and emotionally from attending the course. Booking the weekend I now realise was a precious and deserving gift to myself. One that I am so thankful for. I feel everyone’s life would be so much richer and enlightening if they too could reap the same benefits as myself from the experience."

Vicky Barrington

"It has certainly made me more accepting of differences in opinion and perspective. At its simplest level, this has happened through being conscious of creating the space for people to present and talk about things that affect them"

CS, Head of Workforce

“The master classes have really helped me in the creation of an effective team, with me having a greater understanding of people in my team and also how I can further develop skills in others by using a difference approach”

Managing Director, NHS

“I am acting as a positive role model. I am viewing people in a different way – I am viewing myself in a different way – I can create space for others and appreciate that everyone has a story and they are viewing their world from that angle, so it is enabling me to have more positive discussions and understanding the concept within this”

RGD, Manager, Devon County Council

“Improved my confidence in my own ability, given me a voice, enabled a focused approach, given me permission to be me – by readjusting my own thought process and beliefs this will all have a huge effect on the way I approach my work and therefore of benefit to the CCG and DCC"

RGD, Manager, Devon County Council

“It’s enabled me to take the time to describe the real me – what I stand for and therefore how I constitute myself means that I am clearer and stronger and empowered to make a difference. I spend much less time asking for permission and much more time making decisions”

AB, Managing Director, NHS

“The coaching course has helped me to enable others to work through the whole process of what they are trying to achieve, to see what they are pre-judging as outcomes and allowing them to experience a freer way to engage”

JBS, PALs manager

“The (Master class coaching program) has help me to reconsider and change a number of HR / OD interventions. It has fed directly into appraisal; essential training; 360 degree feedback; staff forum – all of these now encompass coaching techniques and styles which will influence the way the organisation works with local people”

CS, Head of Workforce

“My team are moving through a lot of change. I now see myself as a role model of being open to transformation. I am careful about the language I use in the workplace, e.g. should, must, never, always, so that challenging circumstances are not generalized into negativity”

LJ, Patient Choice Coordinator, NHS

“The change program made a difference to me and I look around I see it made a difference to other people and I know it has made a difference to the organisation particularly to the bottom line”

TR, Manager, ICI Melinex

“The coaching course has given me flexibility in my approach to new situations; the recognition of stories that hinder relationships. It has transformed my relationship with line manager and peers, increased my speed. The skills learnt in the master class frees up barriers to personal and project progress through awareness that what is stopping me is “old story”: An acknowledgement that I know I make a difference”

EF, Engagement Manager

“It’s had a huge impact on putting people at the heart of HR / OD plans. My work also enables my team to develop this ethos, so they are ‘encouraged’ to always think about the impact of their advice / decisions”

CS, Head of Workforce

"Don't get me wrong. This is not the easiest of courses I have been to. I had to be willing to 'play the game' in order to get results. However it is the one course that gave me the space and encouraged me to come out of my comfort zone so as to create new possibilities in my life. My advice would be to sign up for this course only if you want to raise the bar and not play small''

RB, Psychiatrist

"The teaching methods meant that I engaged with the course with all of myself (not just my head). I have learned how to be and coach in a way that effects transformation in others rather than temporary change. I learned that who I am being, is more significant, and effective than what I do. I have found it life changing"

GC, Counsellor and Life Coach

“I am not a manager or a leader. It has been beneficial for my department to release me for the course as it places a coach at ‘grass roots’ in the organization”

LJ, Patient Choice Coordinator

I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending InterBe. Their team makes a significant and valuable contribution, and their skilful and thought-provoking approaches to leadership and coaching are different from many mainstream training companies. The NHS is seeking innovative ideas to cope with a changing environment; InterBe provides them.Several of the projects initiated on these programmes have saved us well in excess of the cost of the programmes—and both from my direct experience of working with Mo and his team in the past, and now from the considerable feedback from the staff, I am clear that the programmes are making a deep and lasting difference to people’s attitudes and behaviour; not only the participants, but also on their teams and other colleagues.
