Ik coach people and teams to get the best out of themselves.

From time to time, we all need space and time to get things straight. So that we can move on, new and improved. Mostly, I don’t have the answers you are looking for. But if you get in the right headspace, you probably do. It’s my goal to help you get there.

With a wide range of techniques, methods and exercises, we work to go beyond your everyday thoughts and dig deeper into who you are and what you long for. There, you can truly learn about yourself, make better decisions and tackle the challenges you are dealing with.

  • Coaching on complex leadership challenges. Learn how to be authentic and flexible as a leader so you can get your team or organisation on the right path.

  • Supporting teams through difficult dynamics and towards excellence. I love to work with mission driven teams.

  • Individual coaching on complex work challenges. I love to work with professionals with a public functions. Often presentation skills and exploring public communication styles is part of the coaching.

It’s my speciality to facilitate others to be more honest, to do justice to what is and what isn’t and to create real opportunities to learn and grow.

I’ve been trained by Aleid Tiemersma (Greep) and Executive Team Coaching (VU).

Refining your leadership style.

The world needs new kinds of leaders. Leaders that don’t rely on hierarchy and traditional structures to take the lead. Leaders that stand for what they believe in without being divisive and polarising. Leaders that can stay level-headed when needed and vocalise their emotions when necessary. Leaders that stay true to their expertise and perspective and act inclusive to others. Leaders that understand and respect the structures we have built and are willing to improve them. How to get there? Becoming the leader you want to be starts with creating the kind of self- and world-awareness that drives you forward. It’s about knowing yourself well, having an understanding of how you come across and learning to adapt truthfully to different situations. And it’s about understanding where the worlds stands, what is needed and what to look out for. We’ll work on self-reflection and we’ll get into all the hot topics of the world of today.

Balancing different qualities in work.

The expectations we lay on ourselves and each other at work are higher and more diverse than ever. We want to combine qualities in work and life that don’t come easy. We want to feel passionate about our work and also be practical and pragmatic to get things done. We want to come across professional and collected and also be authentic and able to show vulnerability. We want to stand for injustice and be able to work within a system. We want to be empathetic and able to make the though decisions. We want to be the best at work and at home. We will focus on training flexibility to move between all these different qualities in a way that feels true to you and fitting to your context. So that you have the freedom to employ any quality needed in a situation.

Wat zeggen de mensen?

 

“Het coachingstraject bij Monte is een aanrader voor een ieder die zich als professional en mens wil en durft te ontwikkelen. Door de doortastende vragen, reflectieve oefeningen en kundige voorbereiding van Monte voorafgaand en tijdens iedere sessie, ben ik in relatief korte tijd tot waardevolle inzichten gekomen die zonder de diepgang in deze coachingssessies naar alle waarschijnlijkheid onder de oppervlakte verborgen waren gebleven.”

— Senior strateeg.

“Scherp en met een warm hart. Monte ziet mensen echt. Ik voelde me uitgedaagd en heb meer overzicht gekregen door zijn coaching. Onze gesprekken hebben me een breed en open beeld gegeven van mijn motivaties en obstakels.”

— Maaike Koorman, creative director.
