Meet iMA Practitioner Carole Gallant


“Education is not the piling on of learning, information, data, facts, skills, or abilities - that's training or instruction - but is rather making visible what is hidden as a seed.”  Sir Thomas More

My name is Carole Gallant and I am the founder of create a future, an education company whose mission is to enable people of all ages to maximise their potential and live richer, fuller lives. We do this by helping people develop the skills and behaviours they need to in order to thrive in the digital age.
I gained my Bachelor of Education degree and qualified as a Science Teacher, but started my career working with the United Nations in Vienna as a scientist and statistician. Since then I have worked for over 25 years in education, developing my personal interest in why and how people learn and the factors that influence success in education.


I founded create a future in 2001 as a vehicle through which the courses and programmes that we developed could be delivered to a wider range of people. We have developed the UK's first academic skills coaching course (In SHAPE) within which we use a range of profiling systems to help students understand their personal learning and thinking styles.
Since 2001, we have worked with just over 600,000 students and in any one year engage with around 400 schools providing workshops, award schemes, clubs and one-to-one coaching/training.
A great deal of our work is with teens who particularly struggle with communications, which initially attracted me to iMA.
I became an iMA Practitioner, because I recognise the value that iMA offers as a fast simple and systematic way of identifying a students’ learning style. iMA will help us in our work in helping students “learn to learn” and be successful.
In addition to helping facilitate the learning process, iMA also strengthens relationships between teachers and students, provides self understanding to support more effective teaching and learning, boosts moral, and enhances co-operation.

Meet iMA Practitioner Louisa Miles




Individuals and business alike often seek inspiration, motivation, clarity, planning skills and a kick start to achieving their goals, especially when life throws a few curve balls and diverts us from our chosen path. In addition, issues relating to core values, goal setting, focus, communication and relationships can be entwined in these areas, undermining further our confidence, motivation and growth.




If your inner voice is too loud to ignore any longer and it is telling you it is time for some positive change, I would love to have a conversation with it! I provide supportive life coaching skills and strategies blended with simple to use tools and resources, a dash of fun and focus to close the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.
I am a fully certificated Motivational & Life Coach with a wealth of knowledge in human resources and organization development . As an iMA practitioner, I use these simple but highly effective communication tools to not only deliver flexible, customized, personal support for individual clients in an impactful way, but I also teach them how to use iMA in their lives to improve relationships and communication for the better.

Meet iMA Practitioner Ruth Edwards


I have had the good fortune of working with highly talented and committed professionals from all over the world that have one thing in common. A burning desire to help people become better at what they are doing and a belief that iMA can help them to connect with others at every level of their lives.






“Your brand is human. Love it. Nurture it. Let it breathe. Treat it like your soul mate. Quite simply - it’s your greatest business asset.”





Created and built by human energy into an energy source of its own, with its own heart and pulse, your brand is driven by passions and purpose and guided by values to which it gives a voice. It can start and influence global conversations. It can create, lead and participate in communities and tribes, build strong teams, leave behind (digital) footprints. It could do all of this whilst ‘making a difference for good’ in our world.
Trouble is, just like humans, brands can lose their way - or fall at the first hurdle - or not even get off the starting block. No ‘mojo’.
Focus, guidance, motivation, teaching, coaxing, applauding, rewarding... it responds well and flourishes with all this kind of attention. It deserves it. After all, your brand is what connects your business emotionally with your customers and influences their buying decisions. At every touch point your brand is giving off signals - words, tone, visual clues, consistency, authenticity, congruency. Your customers are picking up on these and talking about you through the power of social media and impacting on your credibility and reputation. So before your brand reaches a crisis point and needs CPR, perhaps a small preventative check up may be in order. A Brand Pulse Check.
I am a Brand and Story Specialist and Founder and Editor of iMojo - Brilliant Brands begin with you! In my former life I have created and run a successful Marketing & Design Agency for 25 years. Today I focus on my experience and skill set that gives me the greatest buzz and delivers my own passion and purpose - helping other entrepreneurs to ignite their brilliance in a digital world.
Combined with the art and power of storytelling, I use iMA in my 1-1 coaching and workshops. Mostly, I teach the iMA to business teams so they can quickly and easily learn to communicate more effectively with each other and to deliver the brand message and brilliance of the company accurately and with impact to the outside world.
