Allan Adams

Partner
Facilitator | Coach

Allan is the result of hard-work, sacrifice, dedication to wanting to be the best he can be and the realisation of a dream to have those he loves be proud of who he is, everyday. He has nearly 20 years experience of creating bespoke workplace behaviour change and leadership programs, and brings his everything to each and every session with a client. He has a strong background as a Human Resource Professional and lives by the mantra...you are only as good as your word. If he says he will deliver, you will get what you asked for!

Background

I have worked as a qualified coach for over a decade having completed the Brain Based-Coaching Program through the NeuroLeadership Insititute. My experience includes working with Executives and C-Suite in Local and State Governments, assisting them to achieve the outcomes required for their roles, coaching and support through complex human relations matters and dealing with other highly sensitive matters.

As a facilitator, my journey began in 2006 when I developed my first interpersonal communication program which was successfully delivered through UWA Extension for several years. From there I went on to study the brain science of leadership and put my new knowledge of leadership behaviour to use in creating bespoke leadership programs. I developed a unique Aboriginal Leadership Development Program and delivered that for 8 years as an AQTF Accredited program. Although not Aboriginal, I became trusted and respected within the Aboriginal community and now have deep connections with First Nations people across WA. I have appeared several times as a Key Note Speaker on the top of leadership and change management within the government sector.

My Why

I believe that when working at Executive or higher levels, the requirement for no BS conversations is a must. Time wasting must not be tolerated and therefore my approach is direct albeit respectful. I will not be your friend, you've probably got enough of them already, I will be the voice in your head that calls you to action and accountability on your agreements established in our coaching sessions. I will be your vault. What is said between us stays between us (within the constraints of the law and ethical practice). 

As your workshop facilitator I will deliver the outcome we agreed upon. No ifs, butts, or other excuses!

How I Work

I will listed attentively to everything you say. I will assess what you have said and working with you, we will device the best way forward to achieve what it is you wish to achieve. Along the way I will offer insightful perspectives and empower you to success beyond our coaching or facilitated workshop sessions. 

What I Do

I work with the SCARF Model of human behaviour. I silently assess your strengths and your threats. I get inside your head and pull the leavers that have always been there subconsciously motivating you all your life and place them in your conscious control so that, you can achieve more than you thought possible. I have done this for individual CEOs, Executive Teams and leadership groups across WA and the NT.

What I Love

I love seeing people I work with achieve their goals. Seeing their face light up as they have that moment of insight into a behaviour that's been holding them back, or that moment of reward when they achieve their goal, these are the things that make what I do so rewarding. Knowing that I have positively contributed to the life of a fellow human being that as a result, will have a positive flow on effect to their loved ones, colleagues and eventually the community.
