Testimonials
Sav, embodies humanity and is in tune with our country’s diverse cultures, people and socio economic environment. She fuses this seamlessly with modern business and coaching technique to assist Senior Executives to navigate, cultivate cohesive teams and leadership that’s impactful. I developed a good relationship with her personally as she is easy to work with and focused on getting results through impactful coaching to ensure that I attained my goals.
Reflecting on the past 18 months taking on a new role in the firm, her support played a crucial role, her depth of experience and effective coaching methods sharpened my awareness of my leadership capabilities.
Lunga Siyo
CEO Telkom Consumer
Where do I start, Sav was an amazing asset for me during my time at iOCO through her coaching and support. Initially I was a bit skeptical especially of the Enneagram assessment, but fast saw the value and accuracy of it. This became a powerful tool to understand myself and importantly my team better. I bought into the program so much that I had my total leadership team on it, and the value that Sav provided on guiding me and the team was invaluable. Sav was an incredible pillar of strength, resolve, foresight, reflection and counseling for me.
Her insights were incredible and I have no doubt she was a big part of making me a better leader. I would go to war with Sav and recommend her to anyone looking for an incredible coach and mentor.
Paul Spagnoletti
Synthesis Executive Head
Reflecting on my coaching journey with Sav and the impact it has had on me, I like to think there was reason she was placed on my path. Her wisdom and patience were the solid foundation upon which I was able practice self reflection and challenge my own beliefs about myself, my career and potential.
She is able to skillfully help you navigate through complex career problems, she understands the demands of today and will equip you with the tools needed to be the best version of yourself.
Monique Palmieri
Capitec Head of Compliance
Sav has an amazing ability to build a "safe" space whilst addressing key challenges in a professional manner. She sees problems clearly and quickly and is able to assist in enabling her coachee to observe patterns both positive and negative in their behavior. She moves people to action. Her energy and passion for what she does shines through and every client I have ever matched her with makes great progress and thinks she is the best coach they have ever had.
I could not recommend her more highly.
Susi Astengo
Coach Matching
Sav has been a trusted work coach for myself as well as my team members for a large Multi National company over many years. Sav has a unique way of taking in many inputs and putting them together in such a way to show a clear way forward and formulate an action plan. Sav also takes the time to understand your business so that her guidance is relevant and actionable. I would recommend Sav time and time again!
Sarah Hall
Head of Group Research
During 2013, Sav facilitated a workshop with our development team. In the planning phase, Sav listened carefully to the requirements and customized a half-day workshop. Sav ability to draw out the introvert team members, helped create an open and safe environment in which barriers in our internal communication were highlighted and practical solutions were identified.
Sav has an ability to connect with people from different cultures and back grounds. She is able to bring them to the self-realization of the changes that would be beneficial in their lives, while supporting them through that process.
Helen Behm
Spinnaker Software
Sav was an excellent coach. Very professional, quick to respond and well qualified with mind opening insight. Knowledgeable, experienced and in touch with others needs and emotions - very impressive indeed. Even virtually (as we could not meet in person due to the Covid-19 restrictions) the individual and group sessions were effective and we experienced being present and connected in cyber space. Me personally, the leadership team and the team as a whole benefited immensely from this.
Janine Opperman
Senior Manager: kykNET
Sav and I started working together a few years ago when she was my coach, it’s been a transformational journey both personally and professionally.
Sav has great intuition and a unique approach that integrates her coaching and healing expertise into an holistic approach.
I always left our sessions feeling energized and inspired and ready to take on any new challenges that came my way. We’ve stayed in touch over the years and I look forward to working with her again. I couldn’t imagine going on this journey with anyone else.
Wesley Cloete

I met Sav back in 2017 when our coaching journey began. Sav supported me through various stages of my career and I can say hand on heart that I am not quite sure I would have been where I am without having had the privilege of being coached by Sav. Sav also supported me through tough personal situations. I will always remember and cherish our journey.

During 2013, Sav facilitated a workshop with our development team. In the planning phase, Sav listened carefully to the requirements and customized a half-day workshop. Sav ability to draw out the introvert team members, helped create an open and safe environment in which barriers in our internal communication were highlighted and practical solutions were identified.
Sav has also presented us with a proposal on implementing a Business Analyst Mentoring programme. During the information gathering session, you could already see her starting the change management needed for the project to be successful.
Sav has an ability to connect with people from different cultures and back grounds. She is able to bring them to the self-realization of the changes that would be beneficial in their lives, while supporting them through that process.Helen Behm

Sav was an excellent coach. Very professional, quick to respond and well qualified with mind opening insight. Knowledgeable, experienced and in touch with others needs and emotions - very impressive indeed. Even virtually (as we could not meet in person due to the Covid-19 restrictions) the individual and group sessions were effective and we experienced being present and connected in cyber space. Me personally, the leadership team and the team as a whole benefited immensely from this. It came at a time when we all needed some introspection (go on a journey of self-discovery) and connection with our colleagues on a different level as the lockdown and isolation is really taking it's toll. As soon as this process started, I got very excited and thankful as well as impressed feedback from all my colleagues. They are now aware of how to handle each other in different scenarios. I highly recommend Sav for any team or individual

Sav and I started working together a few years ago when she was my coach, it’s been a transformational journey both personally and professionally.
Sav has great intuition and a unique approach that integrates her coaching and healing expertise into an holistic approach.
I always left our sessions feeling energized and inspired and ready to take on any new challenges that came my way. We’ve stayed in touch over the years and I look forward to working with her again. I couldn’t imagine going on this journey with anyone else.Wesley Cloete

I met Sav back in 2017 when our coaching journey began. Sav supported me through various stages of my career and I can say hand on heart that I am not quite sure I would have been where I am without having had the privilege of being coached by Sav. Sav also supported me through tough personal situations. I will always remember and cherish our journey.

Sav, embodies humanity and is in tune with our country’s diverse cultures, people and socio economic environment. She fuses this seamlessly with modern business and coaching technique to assist Senior Executives to navigate, cultivate cohesive teams and leadership that’s impactful. I developed a good relationship with her personally as she is easy to work with and focused on getting results through impactful coaching to ensure that I attained my goals.
I like her style of challenging, engaging on business and people issues, she became a springboard for me to test ideas and thoughts. As a CEO of a fast paced mobile business, one faces lots of moving parts while trying to maintain high levels of business performance while ensuring Team alignment, her coaching was of huge help. Reflecting on the past 18 months taking on a new role in the firm, her support played a crucial role, her depth of experience and effective coaching methods sharpened my awareness of my leadership capabilities.
Lunga Siyo
CEO Telkom Consumer
Where do I start, Sav was an amazing asset for me during my time at iOCO through her coaching and support. Initially I was a bit skeptical especially of the Enneagram assessment, but fast saw the value and accuracy of it. This became a powerful tool to understand myself and importantly my team better. I bought into the program so much that I had my total leadership team on it, and the value that Sav provided on guiding me and the team was invaluable. Sav was an incredible pillar of strength, resolve, foresight, reflection and counseling for me.
Her insights were incredible and I have no doubt she was a big part of making me a better leader. I would go to war with Sav and recommend her to anyone looking for an incredible coach and mentor.

Synthesis Executive Head
Reflecting on my coaching journey with Sav and the impact it has had on me, I like to think there was reason she was placed on my path. Her wisdom and patience were the solid foundation upon which I was able practice self reflection and challenge my own beliefs about myself, my career and potential.
She is able to skillfully help you navigate through complex career problems, she understands the demands of today and will equip you with the tools needed to be the best version of yourself.
Monique Palmieri
Capitec Head of Compliance
Sav has an amazing ability to build a "safe" space whilst addressing key challenges in a professional manner. She sees problems clearly and quickly and is able to assist in enabling her coachee to observe patterns both positive and negative in their behavior. She moves people to action. Her energy and passion for what she does shines through and every client I have ever matched her with makes great progress and thinks she is the best coach they have ever had.
I could not recommend her more highly.

Sav has a unique way of taking in many inputs and putting them together in such a way to show a clear way forward and formulate an action plan. Sav also takes the time to understand your business so that her guidance is relevant and actionable. I would recommend Sav time and time again!
