He feels clients are positioned to grow their influence when they engage in coaching which provides a space for them to learn and understand who they are and how they impact their colleagues and culture.
Drawing on a results-driven, hands-on approach, Sope walks alongside his clients enabling them to step outside of their comfort zone, stop procrastinating and take the necessary steps to achieve transformation, lead authentically and positively influence those around them.
