Working Together for Impactful Outcomes

Working Together for Impactful Outcomes
I know you might have expected a page filled with fancy mission and vision statements to attract your attention. But I thought it would be more meaningful to share a few things about myself so that you can get to know the person behind this page.
and you can pick one of the titles that suits you best to put next to my name: a trainer, a coach, a mentor, a consultant (should I continue?)... Ah! A speaker (don’t search for me on TEDx – I'm not there yet).
If you haven't closed this page already, let me start from the beginning: I often refer to myself as a Learning & Development Specialist, and in recent years, as a Leadership Coach. But above all, I'm a human, and to keep things simple, you can just call me by my first name, Kypros (Kipros).
As a Trainer and an L&D professional, I have solid experience in designing and delivering a range of training programs, facilitating workshops, and coaching and developing professionals at all levels.
With a diverse background spanning various roles and a wide range of projects, I bring a wealth of expertise and a deep understanding of different areas. Throughout my career, I have been involved in strategic implementations across commercial, HR, and operational domains. What makes me proud after all these years is my hands-on involvement in a diverse range of topics.
Recognising that the internet is flooded with content, concepts, tools, and best practices related to L&D, while there is limited expertise (especially in Cyprus), I focus on translating theory into practical application. By assessing the context and using design thinking principles, I aim to achieve the best possible results through blended learning, effective training methods, and personalised coaching and mentoring experiences.
After spending almost two decades leading and growing teams in the IT/telecoms industry, I decided to extend my knowledge and work with a broader audience. Through continuous learning and a dedication to enhancing my coaching skills, I started working with individuals in Cyprus, Greece, and Spain on a pro bono basis, fulfilling my inner need to support people and gaining exposure to various industries.
I work well with newly promoted team leaders and managers who have a desire to transform. I also work with leaders who are already performing well but may be facing challenges and need support to achieve their goals, as well as with high-potential individuals who want to grow and develop in their careers.
I firmly believe that personal growth and self-leadership are fundamental to navigating and succeeding in any career path.
This is not a website of a training provider business.
I created this page during the isolation period of the COVID-19 pandemic while visualising what my future business would look like. When I initially published this page, I named it 'pre to post training' because I believe that training alone is not sufficient to create a meaningful impact. The true value of human development lies in the comprehensive journey surrounding the training itself.
So, is this my new business?
Well, no, as I'm working as the L&D Manager of a leading telecoms provider in Cyprus. However, I am excited to explore collaborative opportunities in the realm of training and coaching, if we have good chemistry together.
My commitment to making a difference is fuelled by my passion, and I'm genuinely excited and motivated to work on each project, regardless of its scale or whether I'm working with individuals or groups.
So let's connect and see how we can make a difference together.
I'm an EMCC Global Accredited Coach and Mentor at Practitioner Level with 430 hours of coaching experience.
The EMCC Global EIA is an internationally recognised award that demonstrates that an individual practicing as a professional mentor/coach has the appropriate level of knowledge and the ability to apply it effectively in their practice.
