As the founder of Awuraba Foundation, a non-profit organization in Ghana, the Africa Capacity Building Community has been a tremendous asset to my leadership training and skills. The coaching programs at Africa Capacity Building Community helped me gain insightful experience in how to build goal execution strategies, empathetic communication, approachable leadership, strong core values systems, and conflict management and resolution skills.

 Again, the coaching lessons have improved my leadership skills by enhancing my interpersonal relationships with my team to build strong teamwork based on a familial relationship. With the knowledge and skills I now possess, I am very confident of my solid foundation as a leader at Awuraba Foundation. This leadership will make Awuraba Foundation a strong driving force for social impact and help develop Ghana.

Through the Africa Capacity Building Community Coaching program, I have experienced remarkable personal and leadership growth. Before coaching, I preferred to stay in the background, but the process helped me build confidence to take visible leadership roles and be comfortable being recognized for my contributions. It also enhanced my conflict management and communication skills, which have significantly improved how I lead and collaborate with my GHASKA team. Coaching has made me more intentional about personal development and teamwork, and I now approach leadership with greater empathy, clarity, and confidence.

I would like to sincerely thank Ms. Jaung Ah Lee, the CEO, African Capacity Building Community, for the time, effort and dedication she put into our coaching sessions. Her guidance, encouragement and insightful feedbacks have truly made a positive impact on our learning and personal growths. It was the first ever coaching session for most of the leaders and we are privileged to have part took in both the individual and team coaching sessions.

These sessions helped us immensely to identify and improve on our leadership style during our time in office as leaders of the Ghana Students in Korea and Associates (GHASKA). Right decision making, problem solving, listening are some of the qualities the session has really improved in ourselves. I therefore, on behalf of the team, would like to say a big thank you to Ms. Lee for the opportunity.

I had the privilege of attending coaching Sessions with Ms. Jaung Ah Lee through the Africa Capacity Building Community (ACBC). The session was a turning point for me, as it helped me unlock my confidence and recognize personal strengths I had not fully embraced before. This growth has been especially valuable in my Master's program in Water Resources Management at Yeungnam University, where confidence is essential in presentations, fieldwork, and group engagements.

Through her guidance, I also came to appreciate the values of patience, discipline, and punctualityÔÇöprinciples that continue to shape my career journey and social interactions. The experience has not only enhanced my self-awareness but has also positioned me to pursue success with greater clarity and purpose.

I am deeply grateful for this opportunity and strongly encourage other young people to embrace such coaching sessions, as they offer powerful tools for personal and professional growth.

My coaching experience with the Africa Capacity Building Community has been truly transformative. This journey has provided me with clarity, structure, and a stronger sense of direction for my future. Through these sessions, I have gained a deeper understanding of my core values, faith, love, and respect and how they shape my decisions and aspirations. Defining what I stand for has given me a solid foundation to navigate life with confidence and purpose. Additionally, I have honed my leadership skills, learning the importance of carrying my team along, ensuring they understand the bigger vision, and fostering a collaborative environment.

Beyond leadership, this coaching experience has helped me structure my goals and put things into perspective. It has been instrumental in helping me map out the steps needed to achieve my dream of becoming an impactful psychologist in my country. I now have a clearer understanding of the processes required to reach my goals, as well as the importance of setting realistic, actionable steps to ensure steady progress. The experience has not only shaped my mindset but has also given me the confidence to embrace opportunities and challenges alike. I am truly grateful for this invaluable learning curve and for the support that has made this journey worthwhile.

My name is Alyn. I had the privilege of attending three transformative coaching sessions with ACBC Coaching under the guidance of Coach Jaung Ah Lee. These sessions focused on managing stress, strategic thinking, and effective teamwork. The improvement I've experienced has been remarkable, both personally and professionally.

Managing Stress:
Before the coaching sessions, stress was a constant companion. Coach Lee introduced practical techniques to handle stress and mindfulness exercises. She helped me realize that my stress stemmed from constantly worrying about the future, which disrupted my ability to enjoy the present. From that moment, I decided to start living in the moment and stop worrying about the future. Since then, I have seen a significant reduction in my stress levels. Even when I do face stress, I manage it differently. For instance, when I encounter a challenging situation, instead of being trapped in the "why," I focus on finding solutions and asking, "what can I do to improve?"

Strategic Thinking:
Coach Lee's insights on strategic thinking have been invaluable. She provided clear frameworks that helped me approach problems more systematically and make better decisions. My ability to think strategically has improved, leading to more effective planning and execution in my projects. A good example is how her techniques helped me refine a project proposal I was drafting. I was able to bring different partners on board and add various innovations and creative elements in the project proposal.

Effective Teamwork:
One of the most impactful areas was teamwork. Coach Lee supported me to realize the importance of clear communication, active listening, and collaboration. Since then, I have seen my team's cohesion and efficiency improve. We started working together more effectively, dividing responsibilities while considering each colleague's expertise, strengths, and weaknesses. My take was that "The leader's role is not to bring weaker colleagues down or expose them but to help them grow".

Coach Lee is not only knowledgeable but also an exceptionally skilled communicator. Her ability to listen, her supportive approach that pushes the coachee to think outside the box, coupled with her ability to explain complex concepts in simple terms, made all three sessions enjoyable. What I love most about her is her simplicity, which makes everyone feel safe and confident to express themselves. She doesn't rely on old slogans or generic mentorship; instead, she supports you in thinking through your ideas and then refining them together.

I highly recommend ACBC Coaching and Coach Lee to anyone looking to improve their professional skills and overall well-being. Thank you, Coach Lee, for your dedication and expertise!

The ACBC coaching experience in 2023 was transformative for both my personal development and our team's growth at GHASKA. The coaching sessions provided by ACBC equipped us with essential skills to navigate and embrace changes confidently. Personally, I developed a stronger leadership approach, while our team became more cohesive and adaptive to evolving challenges. The coaching not only enhanced our strategic planning and execution but also aligned us more closely with our goals. Thanks to ACBC, we are now better prepared to meet future demands with resilience and innovation. I highly recommend the ACBC coaching program for both individuals and teams.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have been a part of the Africa Capacity Building Community coaching program with Coach Lee over the past few months. Throughout the program, my coach posed some truly thought-provoking questions that led me to gain new insights about myself. This further resulted in a continuous trail of self-reflection that has changed my attitude toward life.

I have developed numerous new behaviors throughout the ACBC program. One is a change in the method of my conversations with all types of relationship engagements. It required me to reflect deeply and overcome constant negatively inclined thoughts that may have hindered my progress. I learned that trust is essential in building social relationships; I experimented with a new understanding of the different possibilities of offending and not offending others while being true to myself and my values. By changing my conversational patterns, I obtained new positions, certificates and created new networks I wouldn't have pursued otherwise. A few of the new networks created for my development were even further attained directly through the ACBC itself. Additionally, I have started journaling my immediate plans in smaller steps, which has helped me stay focused and motivated toward my goals. I had been ignorant of how much having clear and visual thoughts would boost my discipline and motivation toward achieving my goals. I was continually surprised, and sometimes even bewildered, at how this coaching platform of deep conversations and brainstorming challenged me to take different perspectives on things that I previously thought were trivial in my life or even about myself.

When I signed up for the coaching program, I was at a stage of feeling unsure and scattered in mind about my sense of direction and plans in life. After completing it, however, I feel much more confident and self-aware. In addition to the self-capacity building coaching sessions, I also had the privilege of receiving some much-needed spiritual guidance.

I am convinced that the flexibility and structure of the ACBC coaching program, alongside the safe and encouraging atmosphere provided by Coach Lee, is an experience that anyone looking for clarity about themselves, their life direction or plans, for finding that extra source of confidence, or a platform to learn to build new habits and perspectives about their life should consider.

My perspective on coaching changed significantly when I began my coaching sessions with Ms. Jaung Ah Lee. She provided me with the confidence to trust the process, and today, I am celebrating my personal growth in various aspects of my life. I am truly thankful for the guidance and mentorship of my coach, which has transformed my understanding of leadership and made me more open-minded. Through this coaching experience, I not only enhanced my leadership skills but also developed a strong sense of self-belief. I want to express my gratitude to the coach for shaping my leadership journey and motivating me to carry these valuable lessons into the future. I believe that coaching sessions like this are essential, especially for the youth, as we are the leaders of tomorrow.

I joined the coaching from November 2021 to October 2022. Each coaching session was interactive and intuitive, and throughout till the end, I built better qualities in myself and as a leader, which helped me during my term in office and has become part of me for my future endeavors. With the guidance of my coach, I learned a few things, which include making the right decisions for myself and the association I was leading. She helped me to sharpen my thoughts on how to prepare for an activity. One important factor to consider is the impression, experience, and impart I want to leave behind. This was possible through brainstorming sessions and self-assessment till a clear and concrete action was made. Other qualities include co-creation, accountability, and building trust as a group and individual through delegating responsibilities, celebrating successes, and effective planning through reflection and corrections. The coaching contributed greatly to my success as the Ghanaian Student in Korea and Associates(GHASKA) leader. I am grateful for the knowledge gained, and I hope it goes a long way in helping me. I recommend this coaching to everyone interested in self-discovery and looking forward to becoming a good team player.
