Passionate About Building Others
Darren is a qualified executive coach, and a Neuro Linguistics practitioner, who often chooses a solutions focused approach to build the capability of others. Darren uses this approach in and beyond education to drive personal and professional successes in those he supports. Darren believes that the goal for every leader is the same - leaving the world a better place as a result of our time on it - however he delivers in a manner that values and promotes that every journey is vastly different.

Darren measures his success by how successful those that he supports become both in and outside of their professional realms.
