TESTIMONIALS

Bruno Duréault | Director, Finance and Operations’ Support | Finn Church Aid

Together with my colleagues of the Management Team and Leadership Team, we engaged in a process with Tanja to both understand our individual working and communication styles, and by putting the analyses together, understand how we work/could work better together. Tanja’s excellent moderating skills in the group sessions, as well as her engagement with the individual coaching sessions, made the overall process very fruitful, providing a clear and actionable road map to harvest our inner talents and cultivate our strengths on the personal and collective levels. Socrates, when asked to sum up all philosophical commandments, replied: ’’know Yourself’’. This was true then, and is still applicable today also in the management and leadership domain. Tanja’s services supported us in the journey to know ourselves, become better professionals and better leaders. I strongly recommend Tanja as a coach and workshop moderator, and the WSA analysis as a meaningful and relevant tool to explore one self.

Tanja Saarinen and Sergio Chavez, I am very grateful for the time and effort it took you to share your experiences and knowledge with my students. I believe that your stories were certainly very timely and assertive to show us your insights into the Finnish culture; lifestyle, customs, traditions, habits, values and knowledge, such tools will help young people to develop a broad mindset to thrive for educational success and social coexistence. It was very interesting listening, even remotely, and experience how you have motivated the students to pursue their dreams. Thank you very much for sharing your time and experiences with us.

Amazing Tanja Saarinen! I’m impressed by your ability to refine the knowledge of WSA into a superpower for intercultural communication! We’ve received great feedback, how the instrument and methods are improving work life for example in Mexico. Barbara’s experiences around the world will be refined into new dimensions thanks to you. Thank you for being part of creating something impressive and unique!

WSA –analysis was a pleasant surprise for someone who has been in a leadership position for 20 years. During the past years, I really haven't gained much from different leadership analysis, but with WSA, all the aspects were bringing new perspectives. How and when I should focus my work were highly needed especially now when the way of working remotely and in hybrid model change the work radically, I feel that I can control  my work days a lot better thanks to WSA- analysis.
