A big thank you for your coaching sessions.
Sometimes the best lessons are within yourself but getting there is not easy. You have always been great at connecting, knowing when to listen and ask the right questions, drive me to deep thinking & reflection and provide direction where needed. There are not many rights or wrongs but mostly many options and choices, your approach and questions have always guided me to take the decisions which were best for me at that moment in time.
You’re a great motivator and your personality energizes others. Although your coaching sessions could be challenging they always built on the good to address any improvement areas. You have always recognized my potential and helped me discover and shape my talents. Your ability to create an environment based on trust and recognize my changing needs, as well as your flexibility and adaptability have made every single coaching session a success.

I really appreciate you have been my coach. Always being available when needed. Whether it was a face to face or virtual session, both were always stimulating. The journey was tough, confronting, still very full of learning and beneficial; I would not want to have missed this.
I like the time you reserve and never let a conversation not end. You are social and very knowledgeable and for every personal and professional challenge you have a tool or insight to support. You are both calm and enthusiastic at times. You have left a lot of room for me to define my own path by providing you many answers, that is your quality. Going forward I would encourage you to continue to enlighten many others with your coaching skills. Thanks!

Jan is GREAT in the profession of coaching and change!
He really knows how to make sure you’ll find out what really makes you tick. Conversations with him are open, comfortable and striking. By asking the right questions he’ll make sure you get the best insight in yourself. Coaching sessions with Jan activated me to dare doing things differently. It sometimes became a bit uncomfortable, which I really loved, as I believe this helps you to find out what your real boundaries are and to make the best suitable decisions for your future life. I’m very grateful for the opportunity I had to be coached by him and I wish you all to get the same experience as I’ve had!
Marina Elegeert – Senior Manager Operations (FedEx)
Jan designed a change program for the implementation of a new transport management system in our European organization. At the start we needed to integrate 12 country organizations with each their own culture and systems. Especially the way change was dealt with by these various country management teams, key stakeholders and user groups, as well as the practical approach of the program, made this a very successful implementation in just 2 years. Thanks Jan and we will come back for the next implementation we are planning.
Supply Chain Director Europe
Jan has been coaching me co-actively for the last 6 months as part of my leadership development program. I am thrilled with what this has brought me in terms of self-confidence, clarity on what I do well – which is far more compared to what I originally thought of myself – and balance in the things I do, the time I spend on them and the pleasure it delivers me. His ability to always have attention for the business and operational results I am responsible for and the leadership behavior I present to my team and the organization, has really created breakthroughs for myself. It was great working with Jan, even remotely. I will highly recommend Jan if you need to rebalance things in your life or want to deal with the things you always knew you had to deal with.

I have worked with Jan several times in his role as a team facilitator and coach. I always appreciated the result-driven approach and always got the feeling that he not only wanted to make the organization, but especially myself better and stronger. Tons of experience and the heart in the right place. top-notch tips and tricks. thanks Jan
