LEARN HOW TO GET RESULTS FOR YOURSELF AND OTHERS

YOU'LL NEVER SEE YOURSELF (OR OTHERS) THE SAME WAY AGAIN

It's not your fault you are sometimes frustrated by yourself and others. No one ever taught you the Values Inspired Code™️ behind human behaviour, your core values. Like the code behind the matrix, when you finally see it, you'll never see the people the same way again.

Interested in personal development? Once you know the core values code behind your behaviour, you can begin to create alignment between who you are and who you want to be. This foundation will allow you to connect with others at a deeper, richer level.

Interested in professional development? Whether you are a coach, trainer, therapist, HR professional, manager, or leader, you will have your own Universal Values Translator™️ to help you understand and communicate at deeper levels than you thought possible.

    PROGRAM FAQs

    Created by Rod Macdonald, a master educator who has built and delivered educational programs for over 30 years, this program will shift your thinking, awaken your soul, and help you live your best life.

  • What is a "Values Inspired Coach?" A Values Inspired Coach is a coach that has been certified by the International Academy of Values Inspired Coaching to support their clients using a values focus. By having clients identify and live through their values, they will live a more fulfilled life because they won't be struggling against their values as so many people do. 

  • When is the course? We are currently moving the course to a self-study delivery option as well as a custom live-online delivery if you have a group that would like to get certified. Book a call to discuss: https://ScheduleTimeWithRod.as.me/StartWith20

  • Is there an exam? To obtain certification, there is an online, open-book exam. If you do not want to receive certification, you do not need to take the exam. Success rate is 100% with the average grade of 94.7%.

  • Why do you have an exam? We believe you are worth the effort. An exam will confirm that you have been present and have learned the necessary material to make use of the program. Also, as we move forward, we may seek accreditation from a third-party, and having a standardized exam will facilitate that process.

  • What if I don't pass the exam? If you do not pass the exam, you will have the opportunity to re-take the exam at no additional cost.
