When I was at Betahaus, we booked the team of Sabana for intercultural coaching of an Australian delegation. We received great feedback.
I contacted Sabana after our Head of Finance left to analyze and optimize the Finance & HR Departments. They did a great job. They gave feedback individually to each team member as well as a detailed report to me. This helped us to enhance processes as well as the atmosphere within the team. Sabana even implemented regular Coaching and Feedback sessions.
