Driven by the benefits of profiling, self-awareness and consequently effective workplace communication Sian explored and tested numerous psychological profiling tools. After a thorough evaluation, she chose to invest in John Wiley & Sons' Everything DiSC® as an authorised partner and certified facilitator to supply their behavioural assessments
Sian founded My Training Shop LTD to help others unlock the principles and benefits of diverse behaviours and personalities in the workplace.

Sian now focuses on efficiently and effectively supporting and supplying Trainers, Coaches, Consultants, LnD. HR and organisations with their delivery of DISC in the workplace.
Looking back Sian feels she grew up within quite an extraordinary family on her Father’s side with three generations in business in retail. This was until her father broke with tradition and entered the Police Force. Sian, however had always been fascinated by her grandparents' achievements and their parents before them. Sian concluded that the “people” business was part of her DNA
