Turning Point Consulting Commences
Turning Point Consulting was founded by Kathryn Taylor at the start of 2012 to provide the chance for individuals throughout all stages of life to see opportunities in their lives and career paths through programs that improve self-awareness, emotional intelligence, reflection and personal growth. In building the business Kathryn has been able to utilise vast networks to enrich staff and student’s lives through practical and individual coaching and application.
Turning Point’s educational programs have been carefully crafted to mirror and yet extend in-school and professional programs with comprehensive educator, networking, and student forums founded in strengths-based methodology. Their work was consolidated in 2014 when they became recognised as an accredited provider of professional development by BOSTES, in 2016 when they were recognised as a Centre of Excellence in Leadership, Change and Wellbeing Service. Kathryn Taylor has been awarded an Honorary Fellowship for her work in education by The Teachers Guild of NSW.
