What people are saying
Dov Girnun
CEO I Merchant Capital
"The Exco has been amazed at the incredible exponential growth we've seen in the people who've been on this programme. I've had some really proud moments at our company over the past twelve years - I can count them on one hand - and this is one of them. I've sat here thinking, 'I am so proud.' I can't believe the caliber of leaders we have developed here.
I've had the privilege of studying at Harvard and Stanford, this programme is better. This is seriously incredible stuff. These are the ingredients for a strong leadership culture and team. Creativity Wake-Up, I want to thank you. We put our trust in you and you have shot the lights out.
This is an ongoing process, and I look forward seeing our leaders all grow from strength to strength."

“At the start of the programme, I wasn't in the greatest space. Our team was under a lot of pressure, and I wasn't keen to make the time sacrifice. But right from the first session, I saw the benefits of the time invested in the programme. Our team had been pulling in different directions, and we've learned how to innovate together, and work toward a common goal. We collaborated on a new workflow system and managed, for the first time, to submit our monthly compliance certificates ahead of schedule. We've now developed a system where we can tick off tasks as we go.
I've learned to have tough conversations. The techniques I've gained helped me face discussions with team members that I'd been avoiding. These conversations helped manage expectations and actually brought relationships into better alignment afterward. I know I'm going to use these skills throughout my career."

"The course totally exceeded our expectations. What you’ve done with this team—and with individuals—has been incredible. The content is amazing, and the coaching element was truly genius. The practical application projects unlocked so much for both the leaders and the business.
Our objective was to build a strong leadership team with real cohesion. It’s been amazing to see how you’ve unlocked everybody. There’s a real camaraderie that has developed."
