As L+D Professionals, we are accredited Myers Briggs, DISC and HBDI practitioners as well as learning designers. Paired with our first hand Leadership experience, our workshops will elevate workplace culture and Leaders of any level.

EXPERIENCE-LED

Our workshops are focused on the learner experience. They are known for being highly engaging and practical and adding immediate and lasting value.

THE HEART
We understand people.
Passion and connection are just as important as science when it comes to maximising the learning experience, enjoyment and engagement.

Boring workshops don’t produce great results, and we are anything but boring. We use interactive techniques and storytelling to create an environment that challenges and inspires participants.

By empowering individuals to be accountable for their own path and action plan, we’re able to help affect a mindset shift in how leaders self-manage, interact with their people and drive results.
the mind
Our programs are based
on Neuroscience.
We use scientifically proven methods and neuroscience principles when designing our programs for proven results.

We draw on proven leadership tools to profile individuals and teams before, during and after our programs, to enhance our focus and understanding of the group. 

All workshops and programs are then designed to encourage clarity, capability and contribution that is aligned to your business strategies and enables a high-performance culture.

LIN PIH - NATIONAL LEADER AT 99 BIKES

I reached out and engaged Cherie to facilitate a multi-day personality type’s workshop and strategic planning session with a group of Business leaders in my organisation, and I could not have been more impressed. I briefed Cherie on the outcomes I was trying to achieve at the outset, and Cherie ran with it and delivered an incredibly powerful session; spending time in advance to deeply understand our Business and team dynamics to help tailor the content for maximum effect.

Simon McNally - National Director at Cover-More Group

Our business in Asia has engaged Cherie on a number of occassions over the past few years to facilitate leadership workshops and conduct team leader training. Cherie is a passionate facilitator and her personal experience as a business leader created empathy and credibility with her audience. With her ability to understand our learning outcomes and thorough preparation, she was able to adapt the content and delivery to accommodate the cultural nuances of our Asian leaders and their varying levels of leadership maturity. Great use of real life examples from her own leadership experience coupled with an engaging style of delivery made Cherie one of our most sought-after facilitators. I would not hesitate to recommend Cherie to any business looking for a facilitator or coach to make an impact on leadership development.

Cherie is a natural. Within an instant she had the group engaged. Her ability to read the room and tailor off-the-cuff content is the mark of a true professional. We left the session educated and empowered and will definitely have her back to facilitate groups in future.

carene carroll - Founder of Modern Mamas

Cherie is one in a million! Her passion, energy and dedication to help individuals and teams reach their full potential is phenomenal. Cherie works above and beyond the call of duty to create an experience to remember in her workshops. She has changed lives and transformed businesses. She is the most efficient and effective person I have ever had on my team.

Fiona Taylor - Senior Leadership Expert AT Flight Centre

Our staff were privileged to have Cherie Canning present a workshop on Team Building using Myers Briggs. Cherie explained the material with humour, clarity, and accuracy. She is an incredible presenter with a very personable style. The material was presented at the perfect pace for both beginners and those with previous knowledge of the subject matter. I especially appreciated how inclusive Cherie was. She encouraged active involvement and successfully kept participants on track.

Julia Druery - Director at little + CO

Cherie’s workshop was nothing short of brilliant. Cherie is warm, relatable, highly engaging and creates a truly safe place to share and reflect. She gave us the opportunity to pause for a moment and take a deep dive into the things that really matter; something that I find I seldom make time for in today’s fast-paced world. I left feeling motivated, empowered and energised, and perhaps most importantly – focused. Cherie is anything but your average presenter, I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Emma Russell - Owner of Emma Russell Creative

We originally engaged Luminate Leadership to do a 'Conversations With Courage' course for a few of our business units and we were so impressed that we asked Cherie to facilitate our Senior Leader 2 day conference and also present an HBDI session for us as well.  Throughout the whole process, I found Cherie to be open, willing and exceptionally skillful.  The way Cherie was able to deliver a 2 day workshop with only a couple of briefing sessions was extraordinary.  Cherie utilised both her training prowess and business knowledge to navigate us through the 2 days with ease.  Her ability to both keep us on track, but offer humour and mastery all at once was second-to-none.  A very big thank you to Cherie and Luminate Leadership and we'll be looking for opportunities to engage with her again.

Julia Leary - Regional Director - APAC intelliHR

Cherie is a star! If your business is passionate about leadership and organisational development, you couldn't ask for a better partner to take you on that journey. As soon as we finished our initial engagement, we began looking at other areas we could invest in to foster growth in our people and teams. Cherie's engaging style, ability to connect on a personal level and understanding of her field delivered an enlightening and transformational experience for everyone involved. Cherie was born for this role! Thank you Luminate.

Mike Davis - CEO FELIX
