Purposeful Growth for Organisations
People are the heart of your organisation. You want them to thrive, so the organisation can thrive.
There is also nothing so complex as human beings. I love that word, because it acknowledges our “being” – our presence that separates us from machines. Machines come with a manual, but people have their own individual needs and ways to thrive. That’s why coaching and coach minded facilitation is effective for organisations that aim to grow in a smart, people centric way.

The Impact of Coaching
Training equips people, coaching empowers them.
Training builds knowledge and skills. But this alone is not enough to get the best out of human beings. Impact and results are depending on the capability of people to turn their knowledge and skills into positive inspired action – f.e. through creativity, energy and confidence.
Only positive action will lead to extraordinary results. Action that is coming from a place of negativity – f.e. obligation, exhaustion or insecurity, will reciprocate that and leads to uninspired and mediocre results at best.
Nurture a balanced, happy and high performing organisation!
My Approach
A balanced, happy and high performing organisation.
My holistic approach to coaching focuses on three cornerstones of purposeful growth. Privacy and Personality are the two fundamental cornerstones of how people are being. They support the third cornerstone Performance, how people are doing. My coaching empowers inside-out. By connecting people to their natural strength and authentic motivation, I help them to focus their time and energy on the right things in the right way. Focussing on all three cornerstones will help to create a high performing organisation.

Why Coaching Works
The benefits of coaching in organisations
Coaching empowers people to take steps forward on their growth journey, because coaching…
- …creates a safe space to develop awareness on thoughts or behaviours that help or hinder progress.
- …encourages people to take responsibility for their own growth.
- …connects personal values and purpose to a way of showing up at work, sparking motivation and passion.
- …improves individual goal attainment and performance through active goal setting and accountability.
- …increases employee engagement & retention and demonstrates the organisation’s commitment to personal development.
As a result, your organisation will see an increase in productivity and performance to support your business growth.
The proof - show me the numbers!
The International Coaching Federation, the global authority in coaching, found that:
- over 70% of individuals who receive coaching benefited from improved work performance, relationships and more effective communication skills.
- 86% of companies reported a positive ROI on coaching services
- 96% of those who have been coached said they would repeat the process again.
This empirical study shows that coaching is effective at reducing procrastination and facilitating goal attainment.
Coaching facilitates goal achievement, says this study .
Coaching supports the development of female leaders in particular (researched here within a global organisation).

New ideas about work
Purpose matters
You hire talented and motivated people to commit to the success of your organisation. If this is what you ask, then set your people up for succes.
People perform well when they have the right capabilities for the job, and are fairly recognised and compensated for their efforts. I would say this is the old attitude towards employment. Work is what you do it to make a living. When you leave the office, a new world opens which is called “private life”.
People perform outstanding when their job brings them a sense of personal fulfilment, a bigger why, and when the way they deliver on their job doesn’t compromise but positively integrates with other important aspects of their life, like family and time off to recharge. This opens up a new idea about work. It’s not just something you do only for money. It’s part of who you are or who you want to be.
The separation between private and professional life has never been so thin. The Covid crisis highlighted this. And this is a trend that is likely to continue towards the future.
If your organisation is looking for outstanding performance, then create a company culture in which purpose is leading. Attract talent with intrinsic passion and conviction to support that purpose. Contact me directly to discuss opportunities for collaboration.
