As the Founder, Executive Chairman and Managing Director of our company, Lithon, I was blessed to have met Francois more than two years ago when I engaged with him to help us with the implementation of our 30 year strategic plan. He also became my personal coach as well as a great friend.

He helped us to develop a practical and executable StrateCution plan by identifying key focus areas in our business which we then implemented and transformed our business during a time of tough economic conditions. For the last two years we been able move closer to our purpose as a business with his help and achieve measurable results, based on our values that he also helped us to redefine and imbed in our company and our staff.

He further helped me as the visionary leader of our company to improve my leadership skills through practical coaching that enabled me to lead the organization better and have well-balanced life.

Francois and Noelleen is an amazing team that really care deeply about me as a person, our company, my partners and our staff and quickly became part of the Lithon family! They are making a significant and positive impact in my life and the lives of our staff!!

Having worked with Noelleen for over a year, it is a privilege to be able to call her a true unicorn client. With her strategic ability, incredibly high EQ, drive and infectious passion, she is able to rally a team to achieve remarkable things together. She keeps a cool head in the most stressful situations, and has a way of keeping people pushing and smiling at the same time.

Noelleen immerses herself completely in her projects. She is always available to answer questions, give direction or simply act as a sounding board, and has a genuine interest and care for the people she works with. With her business skillset and compassion, she is a remarkable asset to any project or business.

I had the pleasure of working closely with Noelleen for almost 2 years, when we at WKH Inc engaged her expertise to improve various aspects of our business. It was an absolute pleasure to work with her. She swooped in like a tornado, but left structure and a desire to future proof Namibia’s largest law firm in her wake.

Few people have the privilege of working alongside someone as efficient, dedicated and experienced as Noelleen.

I had the pleasure of working with Noelleen for more than a year on many different aspects of the Averly project.

For me, Noelleen’s greatest professional attributes are both the ability to lay out a clear and concise business strategy, and her extraordinary skill to manage and implement multiple projects with complete ease under immense pressure. I was also remarkably impressed with her ability to command a room, persuade even the most skeptical person, and her natural talent to handle the toughest of situations effortlessly.

Noelleen has an exceptionally high EQ and has the rare skill of reading the mood of a person or room, and reacting accordingly to lighten the mood with her smile, laughter and unwavering positive attitude. No matter how tense a meeting, Noelleen always ensured that everyone left with a smile. Noelleen also took an interest in the lives of team members, and invested in their personal and professional growth, while still remaining objective and professional.

Noelleen will be a remarkable and skillful asset to any business or organisation looking to develop, implement and manage a business strategy or project.

I would gladly recommend Francois as an Executive Coach and mentor.

It's not often you come across people like Noelleen. She's intelligent and passionate, extremely sharp, enthusiastic and infectiously positive. I had the pleasure of working with her for over a year, collaborating on a very exciting, progressive web app. She was always absolutely wonderful to work with, and we kept referring to her as our “unicorn client”. She’s one of the the most dedicated people I know with an exceptional talent to motivate everyone around her to do their best to achieve their common goal. In addition, she’s not only a super reliable and forward thinking person, but has really been a huge inspiration to our team. We can’t wait to work with her again!

I have been a client at FRANO in a business coaching capacity.
At FRANO I have learnt more about my myself in terms of how my personality plays out in how I do business. As a result, make an intentional effort to implement structure and planning in my approach which has yielded profitable results. I have greater focus and more motivation to achieve my goals after grounding them in planning in attainable milestones. The support that I have received at FRANO is priceless - more than money can buy. It is encouraging to have a coach who cares beyond the call of duty. Francois is energetic, interested and invested in what he does. This has inspired me to become more engaged to pursue my goals with a clarity and commitment. Noeleen is organised, gentle and exemplary in communication skills. This has helped me to interact more purposefully.
I highly recommend FRANO for leadership development, coaching and strategy consulting. I have already made referrals including sponsoring coaching sessions for a potential young business leader because I believe in the vision and approach of FRANO.

Interaction with Noelleen is both a pleasure and insightful. She has developed our way of thinking in a positive assertive direction, which is beneficial to our dealings with our staff and clients alike.
Noelleen is recommended with ease as a valuable addition to any person/company operations.

As Managing Director of The Residual Income Hunter Pty Ltd, I engaged with the business coaching services of Frano organisation in November 2018. I needed assistance in bridging the gap between being an employee to becoming an employer. From the start, we agreed on open and honest discussions in order for FRANO to help me fast-track my new career path. This approach helped me to be transparent and created a learning and growing environment for myself and FRANO coaching members.
Frequent engagements with Frano took place through-out 2019. It was during these 2 hour-sessions they helped me grow my self-belief as an upcoming entrepreneur, pointed out development points and advised on necessary skill-sets required for a long and sustainable business.
I would advise anyone who is starting out on a new career, going to the next level of business, growing your product or service, to get hold of FRANO and book a look-and-see session. As business and life coaches, with the help of their easy and understandable coaching model, they will soon have you on your way to what ever goal you have set yourself.
Thank you Francois and Noelleen - you guys ROCK !!

I found great wisdom and leadership while being a shepherd under Francois and his Team's Guidance and Support

Founder & CEO at Experto Business Development

Pastor Francois and I had connections from 1998 to 2007 at Hatfield Christian Church. He was our senior pastor, and I was a cell leader. At all times, I found him passionate in his function. When the head pastor died, he took over the senior pastor's duties.
He is an honest, straightforward leader who dearly fits the role of motivational speaker, mentor, and caring pastor. He has also authored practical books on Christian life and values.
I can sincerely recommend that any organisations that require expertise in his areas of activity engage with him.
