Strategic partnerships for professionals ready to pivot with clarity. Built on 25+ years of cross-sector executive experience across three continents — and a proprietary 6-step methodology proven to transform careers.
Twenty-five years ago, I walked into an interview shaking with desperation — on my eighth consecutive temporary contract, with no coach, no guide, and no framework. I was a fresh graduate who believed the dream of a stable job had begun to fade.
What followed was a career spanning retail, government, NGO, private sector, and now IT — across Eswatini, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand. A trajectory from entry-level roles to executive and board-level positions, earned through deliberate pivots, rigorous learning, and the methodology I now teach.
I founded Pivot with Shibz because I've sat on the other side of the hiring table hundreds of times — and it breaks my heart to watch brilliant professionals lose opportunities they deserve simply because they don't have access to the right guidance. That changes now.

Voices from those I've had the privilege of partnering with across my career.
"Sethembile became my coach during a very challenging period. She prepared me for the interview and I nailed it.
