Most graduates aren't prepared for the real world - let's change that with Thriving New Professionals.

The programme for organisations who are ready to invest in their graduates and new professionals with the foundational skills to succeed in their careers.

For most of my career, I found myself burning out, tired, overworking and lacking self-confidence...

And I was not alone.

One of the biggest gaps I experienced (and others do to) is that university has not prepared us with the skills needed to thrive in a career from the get-go.

Sure the technical and theory skills may be covered, but it's the soft skills that are missing.

The skills that help people show up as their best selves and build self confidence.

These skills include:

Learning how to navigate tough conversations
Developing a growth mindset
Being able to take on feedback positively
Developing a wellbeing and resilience practice so they can move through any challenge
Having strong values and a career vision.

It's these skills that create happy, confident employees which is why I created Thriving New Professionals.

Thriving New Professionals is a 6-week online group coaching programme for new professionals in their first 1-4 years that bridges the gap between academic study and supports them to excel in the professional world.

This programme is not all technical and theory. It's interactive and practical programme and is based on the Thriving Career Framework.

The idea is that when a participant can optimise their energy, identify their values, cultivate self-belief and act courageously they will make a bigger impact in their roles and on the business.

130+ professionals have completed this programme and rated it 4.5 / 5 for quality and usefulness.

It's unique and the only one of it's kind, join the organisations who are setting their graduates and new professionals up with everything they need to be successful.

The key outcomes of the programme that individuals will walk away with:

Stronger personal identity and self-leadership to show up fully at work and give their best in everything that they do

A growth mindset and deep self-confidence that enables them to seek out new opportunities, learning and feedback to deliver great work.

Tools and strategies to navigate courageous conversations in order to move through anything that comes their way.

Ability to seek out and receive feedback as a method of development rather than an internalised negative impact

Complete ownership of their wellbeing and the tools to build strong resilience to manage expanding responsibilities and overcome any challenges that come their way.

Clarity on their strengths, career purpose & WHY with steps to continue growing and developing.

Amelia, Government Organisation

"For the first time ever, actually taking the time to really think about all of these topics to get a better understanding about them and wheere I sit within each. Then I was able to come to realisations about not needing to waste energy in certain places and using that excess energy in other places. Tash had more knowledge that I could have ever imagined and just a very open mind to all of our answers, considering why we may think these things and then also feedback on how we can grow and change these ways of thinking. I wwish it could have been longer!"

Izzy, Government Organisation

"I think the TNP course is excellent! I found all of the content to be really useful and perfectly aligned to where I'm at in my early career jourey. I found the format of TNP to be well structured. I really enjoyed working through the content and modules independently and then coming back as a cohort to reflect and dive deeper into the topic as a group.

Thank you Tash! I'm so grateful I had the opportunity to participate in TNP. I've learnt so much on the 6 week journey and I'm really excited to continue putting these learnings into my every day practice! Honestly, this training has been a real game changer for me!"

Tash provides graduates with the tools to take accountability and responsibility of their career growth. Through Thriving New Professionals, graduates develop greater self-confidence to seek out new opportunities, learning and feedback to deliver great work and give their best in everything they do.

Dylan, Government Organisation

“I found the best part of the programme was the coaching calls where we able to ask questions about the module and workbook content and hear what my peers thoughts. Getting well articulated answers from the workbook feedback and the coaching calls really helped to wrap the content up and helped me to apply it in my day to day.”

Nathan, Government Organisation

"I loved the overall content and coaching calls. I was a bit hesitant before this course on what this could offer me but I'm really grateful that I have done the TNP course. It has given me a profound understanding of my identity and my why for my career. I'm sure the skills and knowledge learnt in this course will assist me with not only having a successful career but a balanced and fulfilling life."

The Thriving New Professionals' Difference

Hi, I’m Tash Pieterse. An Internationally People Leadership Coach with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Management majoring in Human Resources and Strategic Management, and a Diploma in Positive Psychology.

In addition to University - I have a 13+ year corporate career in Human Resources that spanned across public, private and membership organisations. I have also built a thriving coaching practice since 2019.

Not only from my own overwhelming, terrifying and completely under prepared experience stepping from the university lecture theatre into the corporate world - I have been coaching professionals and seeing the ongoing and lasting impacts of not starting a career with the solid foundations to thrive.

I have taken everything from my career and what I’ve learned coaching my private clients and pulled it together into this practical, transformational and results driven coaching programme.

I believe every single individual has absolutely everything they need to succeed in whatever they choose to do - it’s my mission and job to help them uncover it and step fully into it.

Thriving New Professionals is designed to empower individuals to step into their own confidence, clarity, courage and growth and build a career that is meaningful to them and that supports companies in delivering great services.

I am here to see people thrive and I won’t stop until every new professional receives the tools to do exactly that.
