A lifelong passion for learning led to studies in various fields: Philosophy, Psychology, Theatre, Business Communication, and Business Management, all of which naturally flowed into business coaching. For twenty-five years, I have worked in corporate change management, partnering with leaders and their teams to implement and actualize innovative strategies across various layers of the business.
I build tailor-made programs ranging from one year to eighteen months to facilitate the whole process to successful completion.
Because I hold the confidential space of the leader right down to the man on the ground, I become the collective voice and strategy conduit for the organization. This enables us to use a systems thinking model to create and manage a healthy, flourishing organization.
The success of change management lies in the ability to be holistic by incorporating the outer (visible and concrete) and inner works (subjective and intangible) of an organization.
The subjective content, causes of outer symptoms in a system that is neither understood nor acknowledged becomes an underground resistance and hijacks strategy. The underlying issues and emotional content need to be identified, diffused, and neutralized. Afterward, they must be reframed and aligned into the covert strategy.
A phenomenology study does exactly this, measuring and displaying the subjective paradigms into themes enabling management to build corrective strategies upon.
This is not only for strategy design but is crucial as part of the Due Diligence process in acquisitions and mergers in order to know exactly what is being bought.
I have coached high-level leaders and teams for the last 25 years. It has been my absolute pride to watch those I work with thrive and rise.
The process unclutters and unearths old hijacking patterns and thinking, replacing it with conscious concrete mental models and selected behavior.
The work is underpinned by systems thinking, a holistic methodology building on self-development, continuous learning, and organizational expansion.
Further to this, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Logotherapy, and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) are used.Insights personality diagnostic is used to start the process and forms the foundation of the coaching program.
Furthermore, raising business acumen competence is a core component, and coachees often refer to their process as their mini MBA.
