With 25 years of experience in culture transformation, talent and leadership development in different industries, I support leaders by creating a safe space to ask courageous questions, to reflect on their leadership act and connect with inner and outer context they are in. I bring a participatory approach to create dialogue in diverse and multi-cultural settings. I love bringing my reflections into writing; my book ‘Grow Forward Manifesto’ provides a framework for personal and team growth and progress. Nowadays my creative focus is on Sustainability and Leadership, bringing nature’s systemic wisdom into Leadership.
Personal quote
“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” – Victor E. Frankl
