"I am a leadership coach who works with individuals and business teams to develop their emotional intelligence so they can inspire, connect, and manage with empathy." - Edwyn Kumar I've been a business manager and leader my whole life. I started leadership at a young age when I worked at a daycare while in middle school for elementary school kids. I'm a lifetime martial artist and an ultra marathoner. I also ride a motorcycle on the racetrack whenever possible. My wife and I met in high school and we've been blessed with two boys who are empathetic, caring and artistic. Our eldest is in health care for therapeutic massage, and our youngest is involved with music production. When it comes to consulting and coaching, my firm has two facets to it: 1 - business consulting with a human first approach, so I start with the people before moving to the systems and 2 - one to one coaching for personal and professional development. I use multiple models and styles here, focusing on emotional intelligence growth, behavioural profiling, and emotional connection via therapeutic models. I also use value and strength based exploration within a positive psychology framework quite liberally. I have grown up and lived in Vancouver British Columbia Canada my whole life. My core beliefs are that we have it within us, as individuals and with complete agency, the ability to heal, grow and fulfill our ideal self identity. The journey won't be easy, as perseverance as a trait is only necessary when there is a challenge; Otherwise perseverance isn't necessary (i.e. no challenge). I believe that my clients are complete selves, and removing obfuscation on the path to self discovery is massively beneficial. There is no "empty vessel" style of coaching in my personal client relationships. I believe in mental health in our personal and professional lives. I would love to hear from you and learn about where you are currently, and where you wish to be.
