Coaching, Training and Consulting

Welcome to Innerventions Leadership Training and Personal Development

Welcome to Innerventions Leadership Training and Personal Development. My name is John Maloney: coach, trainer, consultant and founder of Innerventions LTPD.

Early Leadership Roles and Career Foundations

From a teenager, I took on leadership roles. One of my roles that would shape my career path is being on the Peer Support team in high school. After high school, I completed my Diploma in Child and Youth Care. From early on in my job, I was determined to become a leader where I worked, overcoming barriers that were present due to my sight-loss. I became a Team Leader, successfully leading many teams through the use of various leadership styles including servant, values-based and transformational leadership processes. During my leadership career (holding a leadership position), I led teams of between 6-55 people, the larger teams when I was in charge of relief staff for the non-profit organization I worked in. After 22.5 years, I left the organization as I was feeling that I really needed a change.

Pursuing Advanced Education in Leadership and Coaching

After some soul searching, I went back to learning and took an online Advanced Life Coach Training course and graduated with distinction. Then, I decided to go to university and Get my Masters Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from Royal Roads University. I did a focus on leadership in the 21^st Century.

Becoming a Leadership Coach and Professional Credentialing

After looking for work for a time, I decided that I wanted to take my career in a different direction. I decided I wanted to become a leadership coach. As I felt professional credentialing was important, I became a member of the International Coaching Federation and started searching for a school; to train with. I found the Mindfulness Coaching School! I loved the idea of Mindfulness and Somatic coaching and saw the benefits of training, regardless of what type of coaching I would do. I graduated from their Level 2 (PCC) training program. AT the time of completing all my courses, I had the hours to become a Level 1 (ACC) coach and did the exam and passed. At the moment, I am working towards my hours for Level 2 certification.

Gaining Experience with Non-Profits and Building a Coaching Business

During my coach training, I worked for a couple of non-profits, including an academic institution.
