Is One Rock for You?

Are you feeling a bit discouraged and weary?
Have you ran out of energy and joy for your work and life?
Are you going through motions?

Or maybe the opposite is true, you are standing at the door to a new opportunity, but you have not yet found a key to open it.

You know there is so much more, but a wall of some sort appeared, and you do not know how to scale it.

The wall represents not only external obstacles such as lack of opportunities, networks, resources but inner ones also: perfectionism, low self-esteem, fear of failure.

So as a result, you are not sure who you really are and what you are supposed to do in order to experience peace, joy and fulfillment in a relationship with God, others and yourself. Your mental health suffers and there are not enough safe spaces and relationships to process what you are going through.

Participating in One Rock Institute can become a part of the solution in your journey ahead. Our program is structured to ensure you get both broad as well as deep dive into relevant content, it is taught by a diverse group of trainers and it is supported and applied with the help of selected coaches that will coach you in one on one monthly conversations.

Additionally you will also have an opportunity to participate in peer level small interest groups and hear from a number of local business leaders and teams from Lifeshape.

About One Rock

One Rock started 20 years ago in London, UK with the vision to equip young professionals from all spheres of society to live out the God’s given vision for their lives and see kingdom impact in their communities and cities.

Since then, and thanks to long term partnership with Lifeshape and thanks to it our friends from Chick-fil-A, we have trained leaders in over 40 countries around the world, from Paraguay to Poland, Brazil to Beijing, Colombia to Cambodia.

We have worked all across the continents of Africa and Europe. We saw great courage and miracles as we trained leaders in Iran and Turkey.
We witnessed those with very little resources in Sudan, Malawi and Zambia make a huge difference for the kingdom.

In the last 8 years we have been equipping Christian marketplace leaders across Asia. We work in Singapore and Malaysia specifically but are planning to expand to HK and Japan in near future.

We always knew: programs do not change people, people change people.

A blueprint is helpful but a footprint is needed even more – in other words we need a modelling of life of leadership and integrity.

That is why at One Rock we like to support all we do with well thought though coaching structures and investment over longer period of time.

We believe that best way to teach leadership is through the stories of others, we write biographies of those who belong to the ‘great cloud of witnesses’ and we use them as the basis for wisdom and learning.

One Rock continues to work across many countries but the Institute is based out of 3 Main Hubs.

3 Hubs
20 Satellite Countries

One Rock Office is in Westminster. London is also a HUB for Insititite in Europe ( + 7 satelite countries)

Kigali (Rwanda) is a HUB for Africa ( + 7 satelite countries)

Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) is the HUB in Asia. ( + satelites in 4 countries and 2 cities in West and East Malaysia)

COACHING

For us at One Rock mentoring is a longer-term relationship, often self-initiated by the one seeking it, and often engaged with someone we already know and admire, it seldom has specific time boundaries or specific goals.

Coaching is a framework of asking GOOD QUESTIONS and practice of ACTIVE LISTENING and is often more outcome driven, and shorter in duration. The main difference is in who owns the process. In coaching YOU the coachee is the one who needs to drive the process and design it to your own needs.

We promote both coaching and mentoring BUT we focus more on the practice of COACHING and hope you will then continue with each in your life and work after you complete the Institute.

Our team of coaches and mentors are carefully selected and trained, helping you clarify your vision, navigate transitions and recognise opportunities.

They will guide you through a set of conversations to help you towards

COMMUNITY

In a world marked by rapid change, diverse challenges, and increasing isolation, the importance of community has never been more pronounced.

  • We can learn from a diversity of perspectives by interacting with individuals from various backgrounds and experiences fosters understanding and empathy.
  • We can help each other in times of change and transitions.

As part of Community of Care you will be assigned to a small group (COMMUNITY OF CARE) and you will be asked to solve one challenge together.

You will also be invited to join the growing Alumni community after the complication of the program. This alumni community is international and diverse and can give you dynamic global perspectives and networks.

TESTIMONIALS

Mentoring is a collaborative journey in which both the mentor and mentee engage in meaningful conversations, learning from each other to foster mutual growth and mastery. As a mentor, I also learn and grow alongside my mentees, enriching my own understanding and experiences throughout this journey. Just as iron sharpens iron, we sharpen each other in this journey, focusing on helping mentees achieve spiritual maturity, strengthen family relationships, and become the salt and light at their workplace. Although we may not have all the answers, we are supported by the One Rock community, which provides a strong foundation for guidance and encouragement. Ultimately, we point them back to God, guiding them to seek His wisdom and guidance in all aspects of their lives.

Mentoring has always been a challenging aspect of personal growth for me. Before I began mentoring and leading others, I felt a strong need to be mentored myself, even at 50 years old. I had heard about One Rock from friends, roughly a decade younger, who were being mentored by a mutual acquaintance. I witnessed the positive transformation in their lives and desired that experience for myself. Beyond the One Rock program, encompassing coaching, content, and community, I’ve learned that authenticity is crucial for growth. Thank you, One Rock Institute, for setting a standard for internal development, enabling us to guide others in spiritual leadership and fulfill God’s calling in our lives.

One Rock has helped me love myself more and be kinder to myself. The programme has not only boosted my confidence but also taught me valuable leadership skills. I’ve learned to embrace my strengths, lead with compassion, and approach challenges with a positive, growth focused mindset.

I have witnessed how participants who come into the program with certain expectations have instead benefited so much more through 1-1 mentoring. These sessions provided a dedicated time and space for God to speak specifically into their life and work challenges. Alumni of the program have shared with me how they often recall their mentoring sessions to help them navigate tough situations. They also continue to experience God’s goodness and presence in their personal, work and spiritual life.

Having a mentor has helped me in every aspect of life and it provided a safe space that allows me to be my most vulnerable and honest self. It has given me a new perspective and our session holds me accountable to my actions. Through the One Rock programme, I know more about myself and this helps me not only in my daily life, but also through tough days. It’s also an opportunity to connect and learn with Joanna, the other mentees, Chick-fil-A team and guest speakers from around the world. I learnt that I am a work in progress and I believe that we are each uniquely gifted and are meant to contribute differently in life. Also, leadership is not about a position or title, it is about influence. This program has helped me become a better leader who wants to grow intentionally. This is the best investment I’ve made for myself and something that will stay with me always.
