Be First Class was the brainchild of Stephen Pauley who is an experienced and widely respected coach and facilitator who has worked independently since 2000. He has led workshops internationally for businesses and private individuals. Stephen has worked with many diverse clients ranging from self-employed professionals and entrepreneurs to managers and leaders in blue chip companies, Government agencies and Charities. Stephen also gained valuable experience from 10 years voluntary work with the Princes Trust.
At Be First Class our intention is to share knowledge and inspire people to flourish, to develop optimistic mindsets and have a clear sense of direction and purpose .We support people to make the most out of their life and their unique talents and to be resilient, confident, prepared and empowered to meet daily demands and challenges.
We help people remind themselves who they really are, what brings them the most happiness and what is important to them. The power of our work is its simplicity. We strip things down to get to the core of what really matters to our clients. We believe that sometimes a less is more approach is what is required to bring greater fulfilment, happiness and success.
We provide valuable, quality programmes that are relevant, practical and make a positive difference at a price that is affordable. We create safe supportive environments for people to take stock, reflect and plan for future and to speak their truth without fear of judgement.
