WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT ME.
"Kim's coachingstyle is to use her intuition and test her hypotheses which works extremely well for me"
Many thanks for our coaching session last Friday. I feel very positive about the session and came home extremely energized. At the start of the session you shared that your style is to use your intuition and at times test your hypotheses with me. I realized that is exactly what you did and I can only acknowledge how well this works for me.

"For me it was valuable that you have experience within professional services and therefore know the context"
In short my coaching sessions with you were: extremely clarifying, pleasant, open, we got to the point relatively quickly given the complexity of the issue, good balance between "confronting" and "self discovery", relevant exercises in between the sessions, and the use of simple and effective frameworks during the sessions. For me it was valuable that you have (coaching) experience within professional services and therefore know the context. Besides this, I noticed that you have a good memory and connect the dots quickly enabling us to pick up where we left off very smoothly.

"She unties knots at a deeper level which sub-consciously you’ve always suspected to be there"
Kim's capacity to quickly read into complex social situations and pick up on cues to derive the core issue at hand is remarkable. She unties knots at a deeper level which sub-consciously you’ve always suspected to be there and known to have held you back in reaching your full potential, but somehow never ended up fully unpicking and addressing. Kim has made me reflect more meaningfully about certain topics which would have otherwise continued to sit in a big unopened box with the word “ambiguous” on it”

"She always asks that extra question in the right moment to truly find out what needs to be heard and seen"
It was a long-time-wish to have Kim facilitate a team learning session with my team of 17. It was key to create a constructive atmosphere where we could reflect, discuss the challenges we face and look ahead with positive energy and commitment to achieve our goals for the years to come. I felt Kim was perfect for the job as she is smart, creative and empathetic and what makes her special is her strong intuition. She has a natural sensor for people and issues that need specific care and attention - and always asks that extra question in the right moment to truly find out what needs to be heard and seen. Thanks to Kim we had an inspiring day where we connected as a team and became aware of our collective and individual contributions to the bigger picture.
