Founder and Master trainer - Training Lab

Corinne McDevitt

Corinne McDevitt is the founder of Training Lab and is a master trainer in the Emotional Assertiveness ® program and a senior facilitator of the world leading communication, conflict and well-being programs that have been used by companies such as NASA, IBM, Coca Cola, General Finance and Audi and movie producers.

The programs aim to reduce stress, improve individual and team performance and increase the ability for people to effectively communicate and work more collaboratively. 

Her focus is to support companies and individual’s performance through powerful communication and resilience training. This helps to manage stress and to help people enjoy their work and home life more.

As well as training, she has also spoken at summits and on radio in Australia to raise awareness of this important issue and offers ways to address mental wellbeing.

Corinne completed a Bachelor of Arts/Business in three different countries, Australia, America and Japan. She is a social Sydney Manly beach ocean swimmer. She loves all outdoor activities and enjoys exploring Australia and the world. She currently lives in Sydney and has lived and worked in America, Japan and Britain.  

Corinne is an excellent facilitator, she created and maintained an atmosphere of trust and respect throughout the course. She demonstrated high emotional intelligence and engages participants in a meaningful manner. Sensing how people are feeling and understanding how to respond to a particular situation is a critical skill of facilitation – and one, which Corinne excels in.
