"I have known Johan Hopkins and worked with HopkinsCoetzee for many years, and I can honestly say that their experience, professionalism, and personal approach are invaluable.

What has always impressed me is Johan’s continued passion and hands-on involvement in the business, even after so many years in the industry. His wisdom, integrity and practical advice are qualities I have come to trust and value enormously.

I have no hesitation in recommending HopkinsCoetzee to any company looking for trusted HR support and, above all, a partner who genuinely cares."

''Dear Johan, Karen and team

This is just a short note to express our sincere appreciation for the impact HopkinsCoetzee has had on our company over the last 3 years.

Your Free to Grow Lead Q programme provided our middle management team with invaluable insight into the world of managers and practical exposure on how to handle difficult managerial challenges. Most importantly though, you created a strong foundation for our management team to grow from and face the future with confidence.

Your Free to Grow Work Q programme had a profound effect on our employees. Many of our staff members testified how they not only applied the principles of Work Q at work but even used it in their private lives as well. Work Q restores dignity, it challenges perceptions and it provides hope for a brighter future. Every organisation should consider embarking on this journey. Work Q creates the energy, understanding and newfound commitment so often missing in organisations.

Thank you for the difference you have made to the lives of our management and employees alike.''

    I attended a course with this company and had a great experience. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and very supportive. Communication before, during, and after the training was excellent, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

    Ek wil graag my opregte waardering uitspreek teenoor Hopkins Coetzee vir die uitstekende opleiding wat ek ontvang het. Die opleiding was baie leersaam, professioneel en goed aangebied. Die kennis, leiding en praktiese insig wat gedeel is, het die ervaring vir my baie waardevol gemaak. Ek waardeer die moeite, toewyding en kundigheid waarmee die opleiding aangebied is. Dit het my kennis uitgebrei en my met meer selfvertroue en ’n beter begrip toegerus. Ek sal die opleiding beslis aanbeveel vir enigeen wat hul kennis en vaardighede wil verbeter!

    I had a fantastic experience participating in the HR Power Hour sessions with Wynand at Hopkins Coetzee over the past 9 weeks. The sessions were informative, engaging, and incredibly valuable. I learned a lot and gained practical knowledge that I can apply in my current role. Thank you to Wynand and the Hopkins Coetzee team for sharing your expertise and making the sessions such a great experience. Highly recommended!

    Over the past 10 weeks, my colleague and I have gained invaluable knowledge through Hopcal’s weekly HR Power Hours. The content was insightful, practical and directly applicable to the workplace. Despite the complexities of the execution of South African labour law, Hopcal offers clarity, guidance and a refreshing sense of hope. Their team answered our questions exceptionally well, and every session felt like a mini masterclass in labour law. I highly recommend Hopcal, especially to anyone with limited experience in the legal aspects of HR.
