Instructeur
Coaching en leiderschapsontwikkeling is mijn passie en ik combineer dit met verandermanagement en het leiden van transformaties in profit en non-profit organisaties. Omdat ik zelf operationeel manager ben geweest, begrijp ik de implicaties op de werkvloer bij grootschalige transformaties. Ik heb 35+ jaar ervaring, heb in wereldwijde bedrijven gewerkt en heb verschillende leiderschapsposities gehad, waaronder C-Suite niveau. Ik heb in de praktijk gebracht wat ik predik, en voeg ook hedendaagse inzichten uit het laatste onderzoek toe. Ik ben lid van de adviesraad van HBR.
This course was an eye-opener for me. I always struggled big time with some of these difficult types in my team and they often made me sweaty nervous. Through applying what I learned with the help of some coaching sessions of the trainer (Jan) I really managed to become almost comfortable with all of my team members and am able to take one approach without having to think about some individuals' derailing capabilities. I now understand them better, the driving forces behind their behaviors and they now function as fully rewarded team members in my team. They still behave different, but I know what to do in most situations. A course every manager should take to have no more sleepless nights.
