Your Systemic Leadership and Coaching with Constellations programmes are excellent, superb even - they have been a powerful resource for bringing systemic work into a complex change environment with demonstrable outcomes....the pace of Directorate transformation has also been significantly enhanced through the application of the skills and insights from this first-class [Dialogue] programme. I am convinced these are core leadership capacities for the 21st Century.

What should leaders like myself do in this "VUCA" world? No surveys and analysis of the market, nor a search through the web will provide you with the answers to this question. The answers must lie within yourself and within your own organisation. Sarah, Ed and their book [Leading Systemic Dialogue] will help guide you - using a systemic approach - as you quest for the solution".

"I believe Ed to be one of Europe's most astute and accomplished practitioners of organisational systemic work. He's a brilliant and passionate constellator, teacher and coach, intuitive and empathic, with a keen sense for both deep human truth and intensely practical application. He consistently calls people to discover and bring to life their essential purpose in life and work. He's a great person to know and a great guide when confronting any sort of personal or organisational challenge or opportunity. Highly recommended".

Awesome programme.... I thoroughly enjoyed the three days, and feel very resourced by them. Not only do I have much more clarity on my purpose, I now know how it feels in my body when I'm living my purpose. That feels profound and affirming. Thank you for your wonderful facilitation.

Your deep dive workshop process [Mapping your Potential] has given me a taste of something very different. It’s left me with a real sense of positivity … it was a genuine privilege to work with the Whole Partnership team and Ed’s facilitation was first-class throughout. I was amazed at the constellation’s way of [revealing] the system … and creating a new understanding of where we were flat-lining.

This [Introduction to the Essentials: Systemic Coaching with Constellations] was the most professionally and sensitively delivered programme that I have attended for many years. Ed is clearly a master in his field, and generous and ethical in the sharing of his knowledge and craft. I found the 3 days personally and professionally enriching at a much deeper level than I had anticipated and came away with new insights and ways of working that I have used straight away. I am most grateful for, and impressed by, the way he guided and held the group with respect, compassion and purpose.

COLPI is both inspiring and very well structured - in the way it builds up from the personal level to the wider ecosystem. It is full of creative exercises and tools that I, as an L & D professional, have used since then. The facilitators are excellent, very knowledgeable and create the space for personal but also collective team growth. Highly recommended!

I believe that the application of systemic coaching and constellations within organisations is a huge, untapped resource and Ed and the team at the Whole Partnership are clearly breaking new ground in this area. The recent Advanced training - with Ed and Judith - was peppered with new insights, practical applications of the systemic method and was beautifully held.
