Hello. I'm Kirsten

Infinite possibilities exist in the combination of good people and good companies. When we’re intentional about it, work is our service to humanity, transforming how we live, work and experience our world. 

I’m deeply committed to those who lead…the curious, courageous change-makers who accept their invitation to craft a new path. I coach leaders across globe who are equally committed to consciously and purposefully finding better ways of being…human.

I believe we’re all capable of extraordinary things. If you're ready to create your next chapter, then so am I.

WHAT MATTERS TO ME

ABOUT COACHING

Work with me

“Yesterday I was clever so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise so I am changing myself.” Rumi

Coaching, for your business, team or self, is the fastest way to bridge the space between where you are and what you want to create. 

I’ve been coaching professionally since 2010, partnering with leaders in a variety of contexts and phases of growth to liberate their potential in alignment a greater sense of purpose.   I work with motivated clients who are hungry for personal growth, increased awareness and a desire to show up in the strength of their authenticity, using their powers for good.  Each client is unique, which calls for a bespoke approach on my part, merging expertise and experiences that facilitate client’s directing and realising their own transformation, and more importantly, sustaining it.

 "I have had the privilege of working with some incredible mentors in my 20 years of management. Kirsten is the best, by far. Her ability to cut through the noise, find the signal and offer insight and workable models to tackle development and growth areas is incredible.”

 “Kirsten has been a constant source of positive energy, driving behavioral changes by asking difficult questions as well as being supportive when needed. Kirsten has the right balance between being a coach and a business partner - she asks powerful questions, gets to the core issue quickly and works with you on building an action plan to address it.

Kirsten radiates warmth and positive energy. After each session, I felt empowered and ready for the next challenge. Kirsten is a highly skilled communicator, with a particular talent for identifying and understanding the most pressing issue in any situation. She always provides 1) personal feedback, clearly identifying strengths and opportunities and 2) an action plan with clear, practical steps to implement and move forward with immediately.  Kirsten has helped me create the clarity and perspective that I needed.

Head of Operations: Tech Start-up (Berlin, DE)

Bright, warm and versatile are words that come to mind when I think of Kirsten. Having worked with her for a number of years while she was a senior leader at Nike and now a savvy executive coach, my respect for and trust in her are deep. Kirsten quickly assesses the situation, making connections and seeking solutions of the highest integrity. Her strong and supportive character make her a business partner of the highest caliber.

Business Owner: Professionally Services Global SMME (Hilversum, NL)

I’ve worked with a number of well-known business coaches but none matched my style, until I met Kirsten.  She quickly grasped the nuances of the business and became a trusted sounding board to discuss the most difficult and important decisions that have enabled exponential growth in all areas of the business. I feel like she has become a silent partner in the business.
