Build your communication, coaching and personal skills,
and influence behaviour for positive impact.
Effective communication leads to better relationships with the people we live and work with. It improves confidence and work performance but it’s also a big contributor to a less stressful and more fulfilling life - both inside and outside of the workplace.
People might work in the same place, even perform similar roles - and yet see things quite differently. Mind Mastery skills enable us to notice these differences - in ourselves and others, and communicate far more effectively as a result. Problems are resolved faster, with less potential for stress and conflict.
So how do you achieve Mind Mastery? It’s when your personal growth and development integrates with the building of your communication and coaching skills. You could be a leader or a manager in a role where you want to help others change behaviours and work to achieve outcomes. You may also recognise the potential for these skills to help you make better choices for yourself.
People sometimes need an additional perspective to achieve their goals. Mind Mastery embeds the practical skills and techniques that you can use immediately with others to help build confidence, performance and ultimately, better results.

We have specialists in areas such as strategic thinking, imposter syndrome and burnout.

Get off the rollercoaster of life
When our teams had to adjust, almost overnight, from a busy studio environment to remote working, we really needed help and advice. We wanted our people managers to be able to successfully manage remote teams while keeping everyone motivated (including the managers themselves!), connected, and feeling well. We also wanted to be supportive but needed to track and monitor work too. Monkey Puzzle delivered online team workshops which helped us rethink how we could adapt to the new way of working, so we could do everything we could to get the best from our people without increasing workloads. These were delivered in such a way that everyone felt comfortable to take part in discussions, share concerns, and come up with ideas together as a team. Monkey Puzzle's support has been extremely helpful, setting us up to explore improved ways of working, not just for now but also for the future.
I asked Monkey Puzzle to deliver the NLP Practitioner Certification in my organisation in 2015 to support my team in delivering a continuous improvement programme which involved lots of stakeholder management, negotiations and cultural change management. We were very skilled at the process and technical aspects and wanted to get equally skilled at the people side of things. It was fantastic, enlightening and truly experiential. The learnings are totally applicable to all aspects of both work and personal life. This culminates in a real ability to understand both yourself and the behaviours of those you interact with. Karen and John have an amazing wealth of applicable knowledge and their delivery style is engaging and conducive to a relaxed atmosphere. Karen and John are excellent coaches with a fantastic ability to be both nurturing and stretching. A huge thank you.
