He started his career at an executive search firm, after which he cut his teeth in the training and coaching business at Krauthammer International. “What fascinates me, is how the values that an organization pursues are reflected in the behaviour of the people in that organization. Work with me and you’ll get more grip on this.” Values that are important to himself: development, freedom and responsibility. Jeroen earned his MA in cultural studies at the University of Amsterdam, and more recently completed a Change Management course at the VU University Amsterdam. Partner and father.

Wat typeert onze werkwijze?
Persoonlijk
Wij geloven niet in anoniem massaal. Wel in persoonlijk. We zetten graag onze handtekening onder ons werk, en stimuleren anderen dat ook te doen.
Interactief & Activerend
Action Learning, van praten naar doen. Liever confronterend dan onduidelijk. Plannen op 1A4. Simpel, visueel, overzichtelijk. ‘Agile‘ bijsturen. Mensen betrekken. Van monoloog of dovemansgesprek naar dialoog. Wij hebben graag plezier in ons werk. U toch ook?
Maatwerk & Co-Design
Onze jarenlange ervaring en ‘best practices‘ maken geen impact als ze niet aansluiten op úw realiteit. Samen met u nemen wij de verantwoordelijkheid goed passend maatwerk te leveren. Wat we ontwikkelen is gericht op het resultaat dat u wilt neerzetten.
Impact
Wij springen samen met u in het diepe. Van high impact trainings- coachings- en workshopsessies om uw team weer op scherp te zetten tot eerlijke gesprekken in de vergaderzaal en bij de koffieautomaat.
