I am grateful to Megan Kruschke for designing this sheet for me as a "get to know you" page ... if you want to explore any of these topics in the coaching space or in a team-building training workshop environment, do reach out - all contact details below.

Summer can be a good time to explore your own training, coaching and resourcing options ... and we'll be exhibiting at the Cork Summer Show this year (June 20th-21st) if you'd like to stop by our table in the Local Enterprise Office tent.

Have you heard of colour theory?

Put simply, it is the knowledge of how colours interact with each other.

Traditionally, a red and a green will balance each other out by toning down the intensity of the other colour. This can also be seen in personality types!

A Red personality is quite determined and pragmatic, while a Green is caring and patient. Where a Red charges ahead on getting into action, a Green can help them slow down and breathe. Alternatively, when a Green is too docile, a Red can help them be assertive.

Do you have a junk drawer?

They are usually stuffed with bits and bobs, some useful, some to come back to later, and some... you do not even know how that got in there!

Our lives can be similar.

We have a multitude of diverse facets, often times more than we even realise! Yet, it can be difficult to remember, let alone organise and make use of them.

Maybe you do not have a strong sense of who you are, or you want to shift into something new, or you simply need some growth. If so, check out our coaching options!

A gesture can be defined as an action performed to convey a feeling, intention, idea, or meaning.

They can express your unique personality, show trust or goodwill, as well as improving on or distracting from a presentation. However, in different cultures, the same gesture can mean something else entirely!

Navigating these different aspects of professional settings can be overwhelming, and we help with ALL four.

Understanding and utilising personalities, leading effectively with connections, presenting confidently, and unifying multicultural teams all lead to greater success in the workplace.

If you want to improve any of these areas, we have courses for each https://www.cornerstonelearning.ie/corporate-courses

It has been a whole year since we fully launched, but this may be the first you are seeing of us and might be wondering what our purpose is.

Put simply, we are trainers and coaches for your professional and personal journeys!

The goal is not to stick you or your employees in a nice little box, nor tell you what to do.

We instead want to aid you in unlocking your true potential by engaging with your dreams and supporting you through the process of planning how to reach them.

You don't need to touch someone to show physical affection.

If someone does not enjoy physical touch, taking the time to note and respect this is also a form of love! This shows your attentiveness and care for the person's feelings.

On the other hand, if they DO enjoy physical touch, you can learn what actions they like most and when they feel comfortable receiving it.

Physical affection is often valued as it is inherently a sincere form of affection, being more difficult to fake, and can convey feelings when words fall short.

And remember: when in doubt, just ask!

Lights are shining, the air is nippy, fires are crackling, and the smiles are abundant.

The holidays can be incredibly joyful or difficult to endure, but regardless of which feels closer to home for you, connection IS important.

Spending quality time with someone can convey to them that they are valued and loved by you.

Giving space to voice concerns, ask advice, or simply enjoy each other's company all help to foster and deepen your relationships with one another.

Who can you spend intentional time with over the break? Who needs your listening ear, your presence, and your friendship?
