• CONGRATULATIONS!  I am forever grateful to Ruth Sembajwe, PCC from the United Nations on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in Vienna for the opportunity to work with, and train, talented Certified Leadership Coaches within the UNODC.  Ruth was delivering coaching training within the UNODC, teaching the coaching competencies, and creating a coaching culture when I was fortunate enough to meet Ruth at the ICF Conference in Vienna in October 2019.  Since then, we have delivered six (6) virtual cohorts of Destination Leadership's ICF-Approved Coach Specific Training Program Hours (ACSTH) during the pandemic within the UNODC, with the next Cohort #7 starting in November, and Cohort #8 starting in January.  This video shows the amazing commitment that the United Nations on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has invested towards training leaders as coaches and providing coaching to the UNODC staff and the powerful impact it is having throughout the world.  Congratulations Certified Leadership Coaches (CLC) Bonnie, Troels, Ekaterina, and Aliou ... it was a pleasure to work with you, and most of all thank you to Ruth for making this dream come true!
