Management Consulting

Over the past year, my work role has shifted from individual contributor to a management-focused role. My biggest challenge in this transition was a colleague who went from peer to subordinate, and her negative response to this change. It was challenging to adjust to her rapid degradation in attitude in combination with encouraging the performance necessary to the team’s success.

Pieter helped me to see the challenge through a management lens that I’d never been exposed to before. In addition, he understood how much of a personal toll my colleague’s negativity took, and coached me through the personal growth required to face the problem with maturity. I continue to see Pieter’s guidance as I develop myself into a stronger manager and leader.

Business Coaching

It’s so refreshing to speak with someone who actively listens and genuinely wants to help improve the situation. Pieter has a natural ability to break down the barriers and will work alongside you to help identify the problem and form resolutions. One of the things I like most about working with Pieter is that he boosts morale, helps you identify your strengths, and form a plan for growth. Side note, I always appreciate the suggested readings he provides for personal development.

Private Practice

Jennifer has been extremely helpful in guiding me through the transition of group practice into my own LLC individual practice.

After working with Jennifer, I feel more secure and confident in what I’m doing, have grown my referral sources, and clarified values in my business and my personal life. I’m growing my practice and have someone I can turn to with questions.

Jennifer is understanding, genuine, and flexible, meets you where you’re at, and is a trouble shooter and cheerleader. She cares about me as a human and a business owner—and that makes all the difference. She was someone who I could turn to at any point and discuss something in depth or run an idea by. She’s been a strong motivator both as a peer and as a coach.

Management Consulting

Pieter was instrumental during a recent career shift I have gone through. His ability to listen, strategize, and relate to the situations and decisions was exactly what I needed at the time. He has a unique skill set that evokes you to truly think through your actions and leadership approach without just making the decisions for you. If you are looking for an executive coach who is in it to support you through your development while pushing you to be a better leader, then Pieter is the right person for you!

Business Coaching

Although I am still early in my career, Pieter’s coaching has encouraged me to set goals for several years into the future. He has helped me see how to utilize my personal strengths to shape a career that will suit me. Keeping this career path in mind has driven me to become much more motivated in my work.

Private Practice

Jennifer has been instrumental in getting my private practice up and running strong. Starting a private practice was a dream of mine that I would not have been capable of making a reality without her advice in marketing, business plan development, and accounting. She has been patient and understanding with all my questions and has given me resources that have been beneficial in this process. The direction and encouragement Jennifer has helped grow my business to full time in less than a year. Without her contributions, I would not have been as successful in this risky and challenging endeavor.
