Professionalism and Experience
Coracle is headed up by Tim Bishop, who has been living and working in Ho Chi Minh City since 2011, and who brings 20+ years of facilitation experience across Asia-Pacific, to ensure a calm, structured, and highly interactive approach to building stronger teams and workplace culture.
Workshops are practical, energising, and immediately usable - not simply theoretical lectures.

Tim worked with the Ethical Tea Partnership over a few months to guide us on a "gender transformative" approach to all our work. He engaged professionally with our private sector stakeholders, he was friendly a accessible to ETP's global team, and he was very reliable. With Tim's guidance, we've reviewed and refreshed our approach to support women in tea. (July, 2021).

We have worked with Tim for over 10 years during his time at CARE International. CARE in Sri Lanka and now Chrysalis has benefited greatly from his technical advise, coaching and mentoring. Very specifically Tim has supported our engagement with the private sector by enabling us to develop a clear strategy and engage with Sri Lankan and global corporate sector. He was a member of Chrysalis's advisory team that helped the start-up. He was directly involved in the business strategy development process and supported us to navigate numerous organizational processes within CARE International. Since then he has continued to support our strategy review processes and coaching the senior leadership on organizational change management processes. He now serves as a Board Member. Tim is great at strategy formulation, facilitation and engaging people in a process of change. Absolutely great to work with. (Feb, 2020).

Tim facilitated a Save the Children event on Economic Resilience bringing together Food Security and Livelihoods experts from multiple countries. Having Tim was such an added value as his facilitation style is very engaging and everyone felt at ease in contributing to the discussions. In addition, Tim introduced creative challenges which motivated participants to bond, innovate and made the event extremely enjoyable. One of the attendees said this was the best event they ever participated in and I think a lot had to do with Tim's energy and professionalism.
