About US
Building the future
Our Process – transformation begins immediately and lasts. We do it differently, and it’s working.
- We use an ‘Applied Learning in Action’ approach. This involves working on real contextual issues or challenges, a focus on applied learning and actually implementing solutions. It is a form of learning by doing.
- We begin with the individual. Integrating the knowledge at a personal level is vital to the successful application of that knowledge at an organisational level.
- We have successfully used this approach in a wide range of contexts, organisational levels and cultures with outstanding results.

Introducing Brett Bennett
Brett adds a powerful dimension to the 3e team

Brett Bennett
Coach / Mentor
While still being a co-owner of a water treatment company I started the journey into the delivery of leadership development material, and in 2009 I made the change in career to become fully focussed in the leadership training field.
I have a passion to see people given the tools and training to be able to succeed both professionally and personally so that everyone can find both fulfilment and effectiveness in whatever context they find themselves.
I am experienced in both classroom delivery as well as personal coaching and mentoring.
Having worked within the education industry for some time I was invited to assess an education provider in Papua New Guinea. Using a long term sustainable developmental approach I was able to increase the educational effectiveness of the organisation through the training and mentoring of staff. The success has been attributed to the enabling and empowerment of staff at a local level to implement the changes that are required.
I work as the Head of School for the School of Leadership with a tertiary education provider as well as being involved in various governance roles. I am currently a director on four Boards, for 3 of which I am the chairperson.
