I am an independent management consultant, coach and leadership trainer. For more than twenty years I have been supporting organizations on themes like leadershap, vision and strategy, inspiration, creativity and innovation. I design leadership development programmes and coach management teams to take a next step in realising their vision & values. I help individuals in finding their purpose and what it is that inspires them in life. This I do from a background in Andragology, Business Administration, Philosophy and Spirituality.
I see leadershap as consciously giving direction to your own behaviour and that of people around you. To do that authentically, a vision that is lived and acted upon is crucial. I coach leaders to find their passion and inspiration, so they can connect people for a meaningful cause. I help organizations to develop programmes for a new generation of leaders, who reconcile spirit and business.
I regularly give presentations and workshops on paradoxes in leadership, spirited business, the magic of creativity and innovation and on new ways of shaping organizations.
My motto:
Don’t ask yourself what the world needs
Ask yourself what makes you come alive
and bring that to the world.
Cause what the world needs
are people who have come alive.
Writing is one of my passions.
