The Heart Behind Thrive360Connect

Bridging the Gap Between Degrees and Careers.

For over two decades, Coach Irene Nyaga has been at the forefront of educational leadership and professional development in Kenya. As the Managing Director of Hallmark Institute of Professionals, she witnessed the "unemployability gap"—where brilliant graduates lacked the soft skills to succeed.

Thrive360Connect was born out of a desire to provide a 360-degree approach to growth. As a certified ILO-SIYB trainer, Irene doesn't just teach business; she cultivates the mindset required to build a legacy.

Her approach combines the rigor of Competence-Based Education with the empathy of holistic wellness coaching, ensuring that her mentees don't just find jobs—they find their purpose.
