About Us

The profile development, workshops, and training of facilitators who present these materials are the brainchild of Hettie Brittz and Annatjie van Zyl. Annatjie and Hettie met while they were training together to become DISC consultants. They share a passion for people and believe that they have a calling to equip individuals with self-knowledge and understanding of others, enabling them to grow in all their relationships. Under Hettie's and Annatjie's leadership, a growing number of trained facilitators present the Tall Trees workshops. With their specialist knowledge, this passionate team transforms relationships and leadership in every sphere.

OUR APPROACH

The reference to Tall Trees stems from the idiom that tall trees catch the most wind. Tall Trees equips each teenager and adult to become a tall tree that will remain standing even during the worst wind storm.
