I Have a Passion for YOUR:

GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT

As a coach, I help individuals, teams and organisations unlock their full potential by focusing on their development and growth. My clients come to me with a variety of goals, from advancing their careers to improving their (team or individual) performance to achieving personal, team or organisational milestones.

Through active listening and powerful questioning, I support individuals as they clarify their thinking, gain insights, build the skills and confidence they need to succeed. For teams and organisations I offer different packages to support them on their journey to high performance.

Whether you're looking to take your organisation, team or individual career to the next level, unleash your inner potential or achieve a lifelong dream, I'm here to help you make it happen.

You can start by scheduling a 45 min FREE session down below.

INDIVIDUAL COACHING

One of my clients was feeling overwhelmed and stuck in her career. She had lost sight of her passions and didn't know what direction to take.

Throughout my coaching I used the cornerstones of Co-Active coaching, meaning that we are all naturally creative, resourceful and whole, in other words, people have the natural ability to resolve the challenges they face.

​Throughout  a series of sessions I listened, supported her to identify values and strengths & understand what kept her from taking next steps. We worked together to set realistic goals and develop an action plan.

​Coaching taught her to adopt a growth mindset, and with my guidance, she gained the confidence to take calculated risks and pursue her dreams.

​The coaching journey led her to discover purpose and reclaim her passion, and she now feels energized and fulfilled in her career.

Professional & Personal Focus 

A client in his early mid-career felt lost and uncertain about his future. He was overwhelmed between reality (earning his daily bread and providing for his family) and his personal needs.

He reached out to me for guidance. I listened attentively and encouraged him to delve deep within himself to discover his passions, values and most of all his strengths.

Through various exercises and coaching sessions, he discovered what his ideal professional environment was - one where he would not feel overloaded, be able to apply his strengths and live in perfect balance with his personal needs as a father of 3 young children. 

​With my support, he found the confidence to pursue a different career from the one he used to have in consulting.

​He now leads a fulfilling and purposeful life, grateful for the coach who helped him on his journey of self-discovery, personal and professional growth.

Career & Development Focus 

A successful businesswoman I have coached was looking for the next step in her career. She sought the support of a career coach and I helped her discover & develop her true passions and strengths.

Through our sessions, she learned to focus on her gifts and pursued a career in a field she was truly passionate about.

She left her job to further focus on a next step that initially allowed her to bring in her exceptional commercial and leadership skills. Her next decision was to fully go for a job where she could even focus more on her leadership skills and lead a team from her heart.

​The coach played a crucial role in guiding on a journey towards self-discovery and career development growth.

TEAM COACHING

A sales team of a company I worked with felt disconnected and uninspired. They lacked clear direction and were struggling to hit their targets.

I facilitated a team development journey over 3 months. With their input, openness and direction, we co-created an experience (virtual and face2face) that allowed them to identify their strengths and weaknesses as individuals and as a  team.  

It was key for them to improve their work balance and define what that looked like for each of them individually and as a team. The team discovered there were more options than they imagined upfront.

​With my help, they clarified and aligned on their Purpose (why are we here), set collective goals, improved trust and communication, and developed a plan to work cohesively with the ultimate goal to increase results and engagement.

The result was a renewed sense of purpose, increased motivation, and better performance. The team was able to achieve their goals, exceed their sales targets and become a more cohesive and high-performing group.​

CO-ACTIVE COACHING |CLIFTONSTRENGTHS  | MBTI (MYERS-BRIGGS TYPE INDICATOR) 

​One of my individual coaching clients was feeling stumped in his career and didn't know what his next steps should be.

In the Co-Active (coaching) philosophy,  we believe that everyone knows him/herself the answers to his/her important questions in life and as a coach one supports & guides the journey to discover and appreciate these. 

After having discovered together what was really important for him through a series of coaching sessions with the Co-Active philosophy focused on understanding his values, emotions and barriers,  I  introduced my client to CliftonStrengths (+29 million people have taken this assessment), which helped him understand his unique natural talents, how he could leverage them and turn them into strengths and competitive advantage in his professional and personal life.

Additionally, we built his MBTI personality type through an assessment, which gave him insight into his preferences, communication, decision-making  and conflict style. With this newfound self-awareness, my client was able to set more meaningful goals, communicate more effectively with his colleagues, and feel more fulfilled in his career.

Based on individual results, I was asked to extend these assessments to his team, fostering a better understanding of each team member's unique strengths and working styles. The result was improved collaboration, a more harmonious work environment and better results.

Another type of client that  highly  benefits from learning about their Clifton Strengths and/or MBTI profiles are students. 

​One of my clients, a seventeen year old high school student, was feeling quite insecure about who she really was and she did not really know what was driving her and how she made her choices. I suggested we would work with Clifton Strengths as a start. This start helped her understand her strengths better and also deal better with her ingrained perfectionism. Additionally, she became more aware of what her Competition (one of her top 5 strengths) brings her in combination with her other strengths and how to manage herself if this strength is overused.

She learned how to manage her strengths better, set more realistic goals and feel more confident. A great start at a young age.

I have had the privilege to be coached to by Annemarie.
She has a warm and caring approach, is fully present and created a trusted atmosphere in which it felt safe to be open and explore within myself. Her curiosity helped me to go deeper and to a better self-understanding. I am happy to recommend Annemarie as a coach to help you grow and develop.

I really enjoyed working together with Annemarie!
Her very structured and experienced approach and facilitation on building high performing teams is extraordinary, stimulating people to think out of their personal box. I really admire her enthusiasm for working every day with diverse teams on personal and team development.
John Vande Sype

I worked with Annemarie on my personal development. 
She provided me with and coached me on an MBTI profile analysis. 
I would certainly recommend working with her. 
She is a great listener with a rare capability to ask challenging questions.
Simone Lamberti

It has been great to work with Annemarie. She coached our team in smaller groups with different needs. She could adopt her approach per team & was also flexible during the session. This created great sessions which really helped us forward as a team
