“We imagine a world in which the vast majority of people wake up inspired, feel safe wherever they are and end the day fulfilled by the work they do.”
Simon Sinek
Helping you set and achieve your professional goals
Birgit combines a master’s degree in psychology, over 20 years’ business experience and thousands of hours as an executive coach to help you set and achieve your professional goals. Life goals too. Her integral coaching style has helped successful executives resolve leadership challenges just as much as it has helped rising stars develop their fullest potential.
With a rare blend of international experience and local insight, Birgit has helped companies of all sizes develop their teams towards shared goals. Her deep understanding of people and behaviour is rooted in neuropsychology, one of the most powerful ways of working with the brain to enhance your personal growth and motivation to succeed – in business and in life.
Deep impact. Sustainable transformation.
Why coaching?
For your business to succeed in today’s marketplace, your people need to be as effective as your promotional and marketing campaigns. Birgit has focused passionately on the sustainable development of people and markets for over 20 years, with clients in southern Africa and internationally. Deep insights gained during her own corporate experience, much of which was at executive level, helps her support executives as they unlock processes that create new, more effective ways of thinking, working and engaging. Her formal psychology training, combined with her business experience, offers clients powerful development and transformation processes that set them up for success. Birgit focuses on leadership coaching with CEOs, executives, managers, as well as anyone who recognises that success – whatever that means – is a choice.
This is where coaching comes in.
Coaching has proven to be the most effective way of developing people for lasting behavioural change and transfer of learning. In a safe, confidential environment, your coach will help you to:
-
Develop your full potential through insight
-
Set ambitious but achievable goals
-
Develop a clear plan to reach these goals
-
Achieve enduring excellence through competence and fulfilment
-
Develop your ability to self-correct and self-generate.
"Coaching is making a real difference in leadership development, adding value to the coachee, company and country."
Industrial psychologist, university professor, South Africa
Executive coaching is a private, one-on-one (or virtual) process focused on developing insights and actions that help you become more satisfied and competent in your work environment. By being more effective and more fulfilled, you are better able to contribute to your business now and in future.
Coaching develops inspirational leaders – people who think deeply and reflect. People who use their understanding, self-awareness and belief in themselves and others to unite groups, accelerate action and fuel personal growth.
In essence, coaching ignites motivation, breaks down personal barriers, and sometimes heals, to reach your goals and deliver performance you might have considered impossible.
