Meet your Coach
Andy Ramage, MSc, spent over £100,000 on his own coaching education, only to find most of it dreadful, outdated, and delivered by failed or average coaches who barely showed up.
With an unmatched professional business background and a Master’s degree in Coaching and Positive Psychology, Andy was motivated to rebuild a broken industry with a single mission: Become the world’s best at creating successful coaches.
Andy is the major voice in the world of coaching, leading the courses, hosting the graduations, on social media every day, and sharing his message through his successful podcast, books, and app.
At CBS, you don’t train with a teacher who’s never done it; you train with one of the UK’s most successful coaches, someone with credibility in both traditional business and academia.
