Her ability to help people achieve great things is clearly evident

I have known Josie for over 8 years, during this time I have personally benefited from having Josie as a coach and mentor.

Josie is outstanding in her professionalism and her ability to help people achieve great things is clearly evident.

In a world whereby sceptics reign, Josie continues to set the highest standards and is in high demand for her unique skillset.

I have also recommended Josie as a speaker, coach and mentor to many colleagues, all of whom have benefitted from her commitment and professionalism.

On a personal note I would not and have not hesitated to recommend Josie to businesses and executives seeking to gain improvement and development both professionally and personally.

She is without peer in my opinion.

Such a style leaves the audience saying to themselves “I must do it” rather than “I would like to do it”.

I have attended three presentations of Ms Thomson during which she espoused the value of “Coaching” to representatives from corporate organisations as well as interested individuals from the local communities. These presentations were to audiences ranging from forty through to four hundred attendees. Josephine has an engaging style that is inclusive for the audience by means of Josephine referencing audience members at regular intervals throughout her presentation is one of the numerous delivery techniques used. The many and varied benefits and applied philosophies of Coaching are communicated with a passion that cannot emanate from the almighty dollar.

What makes Josephine different from the many other presenters I have endured over the years is that Josie makes the content “real” and it is delivered with absolute credible belief from her heart. Such a style leaves the audience saying to themselves “I must do it” rather than “I would like to do it”. Alas therein lays Josephine’s strength and the coaching fraternity’s weakness. Josie has truly set the “Bar of Expectation” for delivery so immeasurably high for potential clients and coaches alike. I like many others who have attended her presentations and Art of Coaching training forums have been left questioning ourselves was it the content or was it the presenter who made the difference. Invariably the answer was the presenter and her natural and very "real" approach.

A wide range of tools

Josie, thank you. You have done a wonderful job by summarising a wide range of tools in ½ a day. It is a great way to look at myself and address areas of improvement.

Creates a ‘safe place’ to reflect on what’s important

Josie is a person who creates a ‘safe place’ to reflect on what’s important for participants. This means she lives the values of respect, authenticity and love while imparting significant knowledge in an accessible manner.

ByTheRules Conference Success!

I would like to pass on, how much bytherules enjoyed your wealth of knowledge and expertise at our conference on Saturday. It was great to see everyone so engaged and keen and the areas you talked about being brought up in conversations throughout the rest of the day (and will be for weeks to come)! Very inspiring and lots certainly taken away from the day.

We can’t wait to put it into practice

The Senior Management Team at RSL Queensland were lucky enough to have Josie Thomson present an insightful leadership resilience workshop yesterday. Everyone learned a range of great neuroleadership techniques that we can’t wait to put into practice. A big thanks to Josie for inspiring our team!

National Conference Success

The wisdom and motivation that has inspired myself and staff this week at the national conference is phenomenal and it is all because of one person; Josie Thomson. Josie is an international speaker & presenter who has won multiple awards for her coaching. Now I know why. Immediately engaging the audience, Josie’s energy, positivity and pivotal advice can and should empower all. Audience members are encouraged to constantly take notes helping them remember what, how and why they will apply this new found knowledge in their life. I listen to and attend countless seminars, but Josie’s surpasses every single one. The positive reaction my staff has had both in their business and personal lives is evidence that this is the most outstanding seminar available. As a team, we all now think better and live better. No matter one’s position, there is always room for mental growth and Josie’s insightful outlook enables you to achieve this mind shift. It will change your life.

Loads of Aha moments

I really enjoyed this workshop. I got great clarity on how the brain works and how to change my thinking. I had loads of Aha moments about why I do some things I do and how to change them. Josie is a wonderful and engaging presenter who presented this topic in a really easy to understand way.

Thanks for a wonderful presentation

Thanks for a wonderful presentation. Josie managed to engage us in how our brain operates and how this can then be translated to the work environment. Josie gave a practical experience to it rather than making it a theoretical exercise.

It is this type of thinking that will encourage innovation in today’s public sector. It will assist us in coming up with evidence based decision making and help influence the world of tomorrow.

Thank you Josie I really loved it.

Lots of practical and applicable lessons

Josie is fun, inspirational, knowledgeable and free and open with her advice, guidance and tips to help me live my best life. Josie makes a few hours flash by in an instant and I am taking away with me today lots of practical and applicable lessons to help me get what I really want in my life.

A great ‘refresh’ at a time when I really need it

A great ‘refresh’ on neuroscience at a time when I really need it. Looking forward to completing the workbook and attending the next workshop.

Finding the best version of me

I love the beautiful energy and vibe that is Josie. Thank you for helping find (or be on the way to) the best version of myself.

Made a great impact!

“Thank you for a wonderful presentation today. The feedback we got at the break was amazing and you certainly made a great impact on everyone. What an inspiration you are.”

Touched the minds and hearts

My heartfelt thanks go to you for your wonderful contribution to Happiness & Its Causes 2018. The conference was another great success with 1,500 people attending. Your presentation was a great addition to the program and was well received by our delegates. Thank you so much for all the effort you put into an event that touched the minds and hearts of so many people and provided insights and tools they could take back into their lives.

Content really resonates

Josie’s presentation style is kind and compassionate yet forthright which helps her message and content to really resonate.

I asked Josie to help us to re-shape our Leaders’ Forum

Josie has facilitated a number of sessions for QIC, working with our managers and leaders in QIC’s cultural redevelopment program. Given her previous results, her credibility with staff and the trust she had built across the leadership group, I asked Josie to help us to re-shape our Leaders’ Forum.

Josie played an important role in helping me establish a very different feel to the Forum and the behaviours of participants. As is her style, she was quickly able to get the “buy-in” of participants and establish the rules for the forum which included open, honest and free discussion. This set the scene for some active and robust discussions. Josie’s frank and outcomes orientated approach ensured that the forum delivered tangible outcomes which we are now working through as a group.

Lots of valuable insights

I’m very glad I was invited to attend. Josie has highlighted lots of valuable insights to understanding others in relation to myself. I have a greater understanding of how the brain works under different circumstances. Thank you!

Your talk resonated very much

It was a superb presentation. You discussed signposts and indicators and your talk resonated very much. More thank you will ever know.

You connected so well with the audience

Josie, I know you have a wealth of knowledge and experience, and have changed many lives. As you know I was fortunate to personally experience one of your recent presentations and I was so impressed with the way you presented, it was exceptional. You connected so well with the audience, creating trust and providing high-quality education in an entertaining style for a considerable amount of time. Congratulations, and I know with your knowledge, experience and talents, you will excel to a much bigger 'stages' in the future.
