Domine a sala.

Elio: I want to thank you for this session, and I would like to hear your feedback, and your absolutely honest opinion about the session that we just had.

Parul: Honestly speaking, I never thought this session was something so deeply about how you understand the positions, rather than what do you do just to get a job position. I didn't have an understanding of the leadership points that you just gave me. The way I worked was very different than what I should actually work as, and that's the main breaking point out of this whole conversation. It really changed my perspective on how I'm going to pursue this next career that I'm going to go with, and I'm going to do the research on what you've told me, and really work on the points that you've told me. When I started this meeting I was just expecting you to give me points and hints on how to take an interview, or how to go about applying for a job, something like that. It was very different than what I was thinking — I never thought the meeting would be so intense, that you would actually give me points on how to improve myself rather than looking for a job. It's really good, and I really thank you for that, because now that I'm going to apply for this position, I'm going to know exactly what I need to do before I go there. That was a turning point for the new career I was looking for. So thank you for that.

Elio: Thank you for opening up, and for sharing this honest opinion.

Parul: Thanks a lot. Yeah, this was honest, out of my heart — I never expected this. I was just expecting, like, they said they will give you coaching, so usually coaching means how do you take an interview, what do you say, what do you do when you go there, something like that. Which, on a director's level position, might be something different. That's what I thought.

Elio: Yeah, I told you I'm not gonna go into this technical, small stuff — I will go deep into the seed of the issue, and really give you some good support and good help into what you're doing now.

Parul: This was the best part — of any coaching training I've ever taken on leadership. I mean, they give you leadership training all the time, you go to Google, they'll give you one, but it's mostly something I already know, because I've done that work. But this, this was something different. I'm going to work on these things now.

Parul: I'm very happy with this meeting, I'm gonna let Sam know. I wish I had thought about this before — I think I would have already had the position. Everyone has their blind spots, you can't see them unless someone points them out for you, and you literally pointed them out in one session, thirty, sixty minutes, and it's right up here. I didn't know about this — what, twenty years — nobody pointed that out. They gave me a lot of advice, but nothing like this.

Elio: That's amazing, that's one of the best feedbacks I've had till now. That gives me a lot of satisfaction to hear, and it makes me believe more and more in the work that I'm doing — the happiness of really giving good, valuable advice, not just repeating the same rhetoric.

Parul: No, this was very valuable, I never thought about it this way. I know my job very well, I've done it very well, I've always been very successful, I've always gotten good bonuses and raises — they didn't even take out my paycheck last year when they were literally laying off people, because they thought I was very valuable. But this, this is something very different.

Elio: Thank you, we're recording now. I would like to ask you to give me your opinion about our session, and be absolutely honest.

Jacqueline: Okay, good. So this session has been a real eye-opener for me. It's been actually very invigorating — I feel a lot better now after the meeting than I did before, especially in terms of my career path. Before the meeting I was very worried and a little bit unsettled about how I was going to approach these next career steps, but now I have a very clear picture and the way forward. Elio, you've given me a very good direction, and three or four key points that I need to follow. So I feel much more in control, and I am going to embark on this guidance from today.

Elio: Would you kindly tell me, or tell us, what is your career, and what was it till now?

Jacqueline: Okay, so my career till now — I have been an expert working in the development sector for the United Nations. I have been working on policy. I first started in the lower levels of environment and community work, but through the years I worked my way up, and I am now a policy advisor for the UN. So my work has been very important to me, and this is a key, very important milestone that I have reached today.

Elio: Thank you very much, and I'm very happy to be able to help you in such a short time.

Jacqueline: Yes, good help — I do believe it. We might need to talk again at some point, and I'm available, so just send me whatever comes, any question, anything.

After years of struggling with public speaking phobia, I had all but given up on overcoming my fears. I didn't think there was anything that could help me. But when I learned about Elio Haddad, I decided to give him a try as a last resort.

I was skeptical at first, but Elio proved me wrong. He didn't use any magic or hypnotize me. He simply took the journey with me, untying the knots in my life and replacing them with colorful ribbons. Negative experiences became strengthening experiences, and what once weighed me down now holds me up.

Thanks to Elio's guidance, I no longer fear public speaking. In fact, I now seek out these opportunities and look forward to them. I regret all the opportunities I missed due to my phobia, and I wish I had turned to someone like Elio sooner.

Thank you, Elio, for giving me the confidence to achieve my goals.
