We created the ACT Personal Development Strategy and the ACT course as a result of our passion for helping people reach their potential. We have harvested what is good in the world of personal development and packaged it into a simple to follow process. Anyone with a genuine desire for change can easily apply this process and make things happen.
Our background is in law (Melanie) and science (Andrzej) . In these disciplines we’ve spent many years mastering the art of exploring issues and really getting to a deep understanding of what is at the heart of those issues. However our real passion is personal development. We have transferred our prior skills into the field of personal development, not only to create a better happier and choiceful lives for ourself, but to share the knowledge with others.
We have studied many different approaches to personal development ranging from Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), coaching and various personal development models. What we believe makes ACT and the ACT course unique is that we have taken the best parts (the bits that really work) and brought them together into one powerful process (or as we like to call it – an ACTitude).
Here are some of the qualifications and certifications we have:
  • NLP accredited trainers (Accredited by the ANLP)
  • NLP master practitioners
  • Business and life coach (accredited by the association for coaching)
  • mBIT Practitioner (Multiple Brain Integration Techniques)
  • Sedona Method Graduate
  • Hypnotherapy Practitioner
  • Provocative Change works Practitioner
 The most important thing is – We are still learning. That is why, when we deliver the ACT course, whilst we act as your guides, we are students too, participating with you so that we can all develop and growth together in partnership.
