At Level Ground, we unlock human potential by strengthening the emotional and interpersonal dynamics that drive meaningful connection within teams, and within individuals themselves.

Grounded in Psychology, Emotional Intelligence (EQ), and Communication expertise, our work focuses on real-world people development through transformational Soft Skills Training for Human Capital growth, Employee Engagement Boosts, and Coaching – both for personal & professional benefit. We also partner with and provide freelance learning content development, facilitation and consulting to other providers. 

Whether in-person or online, each session is intentionally designed to reignite self-awareness of individuals, strengthen team relationships, and build emotionally intelligent corporate cultures across all levels of leadership and staff.

At the heart of Level Ground is a belief that EQ isn’t just a skill – it’s a human practice, essential to leading well, collaborating effectively, and thriving personally and professionally.

Learning & Development for Human Capital Growth

Targeted Corporate Training That Gets to the Heart of Performance

High-impact training doesn’t have to drain your team’s time or your company’s budget. At Level Ground, we specialise in practical and dynamic EQ-focused training that tackles the often overlooked human-related barriers to productivity, such as poor communication, conflict, emotional stress and burnout, and ineffective leadership.

Our workshops and short courses are adaptable to be fully customised to your team’s needs, focusing on real-world vital skills that build stronger relationships, improved service, and more effective management. We’ve delivered these to corporates across varied industries, government departments, NPOs, educational institutions, and more – ensuring every session is relevant, relatable, and results-driven.

While our content aligns with SETA standards, we prioritise agile, time-saving, and cost-effective delivery over longer accredited courses. Attendance Certificates are provided for all completed sessions, and as our Lead Facilitator is a SETA-accredited Assessor and Moderator, we can collaborate with Accredited Providers if formal certification is required.

We offer half and full-day workshops, as well as our Power Hour Series (focused, 60-minute sessions), ideal for busy teams and perfect for staff meetings, morale boosts, leadership touchpoints, or navigating times of change.

Coaching

Coaching That Unlocks Clarity, Growth & Direction

Whether you’re leading a team or navigating personal change, coaching offers a space to reflect, reset, and grow. With over 20 years of experience in education, training, EQ & people development, Level Ground Coaching with Nicky Delport helps you move beyond mental roadblocks and into intentional action.

Executive Coaching

For managers, team leads, and decision-makers, executive coaching provides support in developing Emotional Intelligence (EQ), improving communication, managing conflict, and aligning your leadership style with values and your better understanding of people needs. These sessions are practical, thought-provoking, and directly relevant to workplace dynamics.

Personal Coaching

Personal coaching explores internal patterns, belief systems, and emotional habits that may be limiting growth. For individuals seeking purpose, clarity, or mindset shift, you’ll be guided to reframe challenges, build self-awareness, and take meaningful steps toward becoming “unstuck,” with self-awareness and practical conscious efforts towards positive change.

Start with a Complimentary Connect Session
To ensure the best fit, we invite you to connect with your coach directly for a short, no-obligation conversation before booking your coaching journey.

At Level Ground, coaching is more than a once-off intervention – it’s a sustainable support system that develops clarity, confidence, and Emotional Intelligence. Our AAA Methodology – Awareness, Acknowledgement, ACTION – ensures real transformation through partnership, accountability, and practical action.

Retainer-based Options for Organisations

We also partner with companies, organisations and schools on a retainer basis, providing a consistent, proactive coaching resource that eases the load on management by addressing challenges early and effectively. Sessions are offered in person or online.

With Level Ground Coaching, you create lasting change while minimising daily disruptions and empowering people to thrive.

**Coaching is not an instant solution and is never meant to be a replacement for psychological or psychiatric interventions. It is a process of self-discovery, where YOU as the client are responsible and accountable for your actions, and your progress.

Employee Engagement Boosts

More than just Team Building…

Our roots in Employee Engagement sessions run deep. Since 2015, we’ve designed and facilitated fun, high-connection experiences that bring teams together in ways that are meaningful, memorable, and impactful.

Our Employee Engagement boosts are customised to your team, your objectives, and your budget. We have facilitated Team Build sessions across most industries and all company levels, helping teams see each other not just as colleagues – but as human beings.

Each boost is designed with diverse personalities in mind. Through creative challenges, problem-solving and strategy-based activities, our sessions break down barriers, build trust, and foster collaborative mindsets.

You choose the venue… we show up and work our magic!

We can do what we do – ANYWHERE! Why?
Because it is not about WHERE or WHAT we do…
It’s about HOW we help teams connect. collaborate and truly engage.
