Why Coaching?
Coaching is about us supporting you in our change and transformation journey. We use a 6-step process to get you from where you are today to where you want to be. We spend time clarifying your career goals, identify strengths and weaknesses, develop a personalized career plan, and receive guidance and support to navigate career transitions, enhance job performance, and achieve their professional objectives. Were needed we use various personal tests to understand progress and make the journey as tangible as possible for you.
Some examples of your current situation:
The process
Our 6 steps are:
A "normal coaching process" consist of two conversations per month. In between these sessions, you will be working on exploring opportunities, thoughts, and ideas. Such could include what it is that other people in a desired role might have, what training they have, etc. Change does not come over night and a coaching engagement can therefore take anywhere between 3 to 12 months. Sessions are between 45 min and 1 hour.
Why Mentoring
We provide you with guidance, support, and advice how to navigate your life
or career path achieving professional or personal goals. We help you explore
what it is that is holding you back, what it will take to change or continue
your current progress and performance. We are you sounding board and advisor,
helping you reflect on decisions, thoughts, and status-que.
The guidance we provide you aim to contribute to your overall life and career
satisfaction. We help you explore and define realistic expectations and find
fulfillment in your chosen path.
We can provide support and encouragement to boost your confidence,
empowering you to take on challenges and pursue ambitious career goals.
The process
The contract between us is one of confidentiality. We must trust each-other to
ensure that you get value for money along your journey with us. Where coaching
is a step-by-step process, mentoring is more around conversations where we
talk, reflect, explore, reflect and talk. This loop continues each time we
speak and interact.
We speak one or two times per month twice a month and sessions are between 45 min to 1 hour.
Our Corporate Security Advisory offer a fresh perspectives and expert insights that can help clients drive strategic decision-making, help them succeed in their position or perhaps act as a sounding board for upcoming decisions. It aims at equipping clients with the tools to navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and foster relevance and value within their organizations. This guidance should not only enhance effectiveness but also significantly contributes to the organization's success and sustainability.
In an era where geopolitical uncertainty is a constant threat to global business operations, tailored security advice emerges as a critical tool for navigating these unpredictable waters. By providing companies with insights into regional stability, potential risks, and strategies for mitigation, security experts can help businesses protect their assets, ensure continuity, and maintain a competitive edge. This guidance is especially valuable for companies operating in or expanding into areas with volatile political climates or heightened security risks.
Effective security advice supports a company's value proposition by demonstrating a commitment to safeguarding operations, employees, and investments. It enables leaders to make informed decisions that align with their risk tolerance levels and strategic goals, thereby enhancing resilience against geopolitical shifts. For instance, by advising on the implementation of robust cybersecurity measures, we can help companies protect sensitive information and technology assets from the increasing threats of cyber espionage and sabotage, which are often exacerbated by geopolitical tensions.
Our services guide clients in making informed decisions on operating in new or current markets or regions with geopolitical tensions. Ultimately, incorporating our security advice into your strategic planning should empower you, your team. your board and your company to operate confidently and sustainably, even in volatile environments.
You are a in a transition right now
– perhaps moving from one job to another. Maybe this has been a desire for a
very long time, that something had to change…. your journey is about to start
but what now… Being doubtful around change is normal and so is a feeling of loneliness
if you are taking your change journey alone. Being honest about doubt or desire
can be difficult and make us feel vulnerable and this is where we can help and
support you by creating a safe space for failure, reflection, and development.
Neuroscience shows us that having emotional intelligence is the strongest
strategic tool that we have. Emotional intelligence can be explained by the
amount of self-awareness that we own. Knowing yourself, means knowing your
strengths and knowing your weakness. We help and guide you towards your
self-awareness by creating a deep grounded understanding for you so that you are
authentic to yourself and your surroundings.
The process
During our sessions we are going to talk about the importance of emotional
intelligence and the benefit of being able to regulate yourself. Changing
the environment and the title is not everything. We need to have a smart and
healthy mindset to work, learn and grow from. Sessions are normally 45 min to 1 hour.
Attending fireside chats can be a transformative experience for individuals looking to advance their careers. Our online gatherings, often featuring industry leaders sharing their insights and experiences, providing a unique platform for learning and networking. Unlike larger conferences, the informal setting of a fireside chat encourages open dialogue, allowing attendees to engage directly with speakers and ask questions that are pertinent to their career aspirations. This direct interaction can lead to valuable advice, mentorship opportunities, and even collaborations that might not have been possible in more formal settings.
Moreover, fireside chats offer attendees a chance to connect with like-minded professionals who share similar interests and career goals. This networking aspect is invaluable, as it can lead to job opportunities, partnerships, and the exchange of ideas that can propel one's career forward. The knowledge gained and the connections made during these events equip attendees with the tools and confidence needed to navigate their career paths more effectively, making fireside chats a worthwhile investment for professional growth.
The process
We arrange a number of fireside chats throughout the year. For any special interests do reach out to us as we can also arrange chats for smaller interest groups.
