What People Say

  • “Over the past three years, I have both participated in a series of expertly facilitated workshops spanning leadership, team building and behaviours, project design and change management led by Gwen Pinnington and Sona Lewincamp. The impact of their work has been nothing short of transformative—both for myself, our immediate team and across our broader organisation, including our executive leadership. Gwen and Sona bring a depth of experience, insight, and authenticity that have consistently created safe, engaging, and challenging spaces for growth. Their workshops have helped us become more focused and purposeful in how we approach our work. Through their guidance, we’ve learned to step back and see the bigger picture, enabling us to align more closely with our strategic goals while also attending to the human dynamics that drive strong organisational culture. Importantly, their facilitation has sparked new ways of thinking and collaborating. We’ve developed more efficient workflows, broken down silos, and strengthened relationships across departments. The ripple effects have been significant—fostering a shared language and a more cohesive, empowered leadership approach at all levels of the organisation. What sets Gwen and Sona apart is not only their skill but their genuine investment in our growth. Their workshops are not one-off events but part of an ongoing journey that continues to yield meaningful change. We are deeply grateful for their partnership and the powerful foundation they’ve helped us build.”

  • “Dear Gwen and Sona, I wanted to express once again my deep appreciation for your time, commitment, wisdom, ideas, listening and leading with us over the last two days. Part way through last year I felt overwhelmed by the idea of Strategic Planning having come into the Chair role of the Board, and also looking at who we could have partner with us for this important piece of work. The list of possibilities was endless. We asked our colleagues in our sector for recommendations and you were recommended to us; and after lots of research we reached out to you as you are aware, and boy am I glad we did! By the end of yesterday, and more so this afternoon, the concerns and fears I had last year have dissipated. The process, your approach, manner and skill was overwhelming fit for purpose, fit for our group, fit for our organisation and most importantly, fit for the people we serve. We have a clarity in two days that we did not have prior and I believe a clear pathway forward. Common language and group understanding of how we work together, how we do this work together and how we continue to collaborate into the future. More than strategic planning there was the importance of building relationships, listening to each other, being agile and responding to what was and what is possible. Sometimes in life it just works, and I believe it just worked over these last two days, but it is also not without hard work, effort, time, commitment and energy by everyone in the room, including yourselves, and especially both of you. It has been a blessing to meet both of you, be a part of your business journey now and continue to walk together. I know our community will be all the richer for the experience that you have led us in. Thank you seems very inadequate. But please be assured that it is also very adequate.”

    Board Chair, Education

  • “Your workshop was- in itself- unquestionably the most thoroughly comprehensive set of subject material of all the courses I have ever attended. It was brilliantly facilitated - wholly and concisely. The end result was a clear and extremely thought-provoking demonstration of the manner in which our actions create the sum total of our success.”
