Success is all about you

Coaching offers the unique setting to reflecting one’s personal challenges, turn them into strengths and create a growth mindset.

In my work as coach, I combine the experience of leadership in technical and business roles with my passion to bring out the best in people: identify strengths, overcome obstacles and foster personal growth.

My Why

I thrive when

I see people flourish in their role and tasks and make their world and that of their colleagues a better place.
I create useful, well-designed products and services that truly help people and the planet.

… and my How

My broad technical background in technology allows me to tap into serendipity for exploring new possibilities in manufacturing and product development in Electronics manufacturing and health tech, and building business strategies.

My professional education in Executive Coaching provides the tool box to support in manifold settings, as in 1-on-1 Executive coaching or team coaching, facilitating communication, and exploring new paths towards cultural and organizational growth.

20+ years of experience in Management and Operations allows me to pull all the strings needed to form a successful strategy and put it into action.
