We chose the name for a few different reasons:
- We believe people CAN change
their ‘spots’, despite the age-old saying that leopards can’t change
theirs!
- We believe that a large part of coaching’s strength is about dancing
in the moment – for both the client and the coach. By being open to ‘the
moment’
we can tap into our creativity and inspiration, our answers and solutions,
and be fully present to possibilities.
- Leopards are creatures of power,
elegance, grace and focus; when they are at rest, they are at rest,
while also fully present, observing possibilities,
and ready to move when the moment is right.
We also chose the name
because it reflects our fundamental values of humanity, integrity, curiosity,
focus
and fun, all of which are necessary
ingredients
for generating successful outcomes.
Finally, leopards are on the list
of endangered species. By drawing attention to this, we like to think we
are taking even a small step
to raising
awareness of this, and help to do something to prevent the demise
of this wonderful
creature.
