Our mission

You are unique. You are capable. You are powerful. And now it’s time to let it show!
At Words in Action, our trainers are skilled at providng unique insights and memorable learning experiences that bring out the best in you. We are human capitalists, adept at spotting an opportunity to add value to people. Boost your self-confidence. Give power to your voice. Make you shine.

Your beliefs become your thoughts. Your thoughts become your words. Your words become your actions. We are Words in Action.
How often do you say you want to change? And how successful are you at truly turning your words into actions that bring lasting effect?
We are here to help you put your thoughts into words and turn your words into actions you can be proud of. We can help you identify and change the habits, beliefs and assumptions that are currently standing in the way of your success. Inspire you to adopt new ways of working. Open your eyes to your own potential. And help you develop your career more fully as you grow into your own best self.

Your actions become your habits. Your habits become your values. Your values become your destiny.
If only the right business values and a bit of hard work were all that were needed to achieve your destiny. But in the real world, the obstacles of tradition, hierarchy, prejudice and lack of self-belief all get in destiny’s way.

Our vision is of empowered and inclusive leaders who shape their own destiny. How? By overcoming their own unconscious biases to recruit from the widest possible talent pool. By building diverse teams that better represent their customers. And drawing on on a wider variety of viewpoints and experiences to tap into new market segments.

We can help you identify the unconscious habits and the unspoken values that are silently informing the way you work and which, without you realising it, are already shaping your ultimate destiny. We are Words in Action.
