ABOUT JOANNE PECK

"I hold an enduring belief in my clients’ “originality”, inherent strengths, resourcefulness, creativity, and ability to create choice and change in their personal and professional lives"
A 20+ career as a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) fed my mind, however, I realized my heart (which I once happily wore on my sleeve) was waning and what I was talking about did not fuel my spirit. I was not aligned and, as a consequence, found myself working too hard for results that did not really matter to me.
​
This realization led me to re-examine my career and in 2016 I began my training with Coach U, a leading provider of global coaching training programs.
​
In 2017 I left my career as a CPA to focus full-time on Coaching and joined forces with Madelyn Hamilton to form Behape which represents the combined knowledge, skills, and offerings of both Hamilton and Peck. Behape’s focus is on Leadership Coaching, Development & Training, and developing Corporate Culture through Employee Engagement.
​
I achieved my Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential with the International Coaching Federation in 2020 – a designation only roughly 14,000 people worldwide currently hold and in 2021, fully aligned my HMSV and launched Original HMSV Coaching where I can focus on the individual and their personal and professional development.
​
In my CPA days I held various leadership positions and worked in many industries including Radio Broadcast, Hospitality, Travel & Tourism, Marine, Professional Services, and also the Not-for-Profit world.
​
As a Coach I have supported many of those same industries and added Retail to the list and have coached with all levels of leadership.
