Maximizer and Learner are two of my top talents, which make me always looking for new skills and knowledge.
Since the moment I decided to help organizations be the best they can, I’ve spent a lot of time on the Clifton Strengths Gallup® method. The positive results in practice have made me more and more enthusiastic. I see people blossom and grow from their talents. I wish that for everyone!
I am goal-oriented by nature and focused on a persons’ growth. I like to bring out all the benefits of working from talents. I integrate the personal wishes of the individual into the long-term strategy of both the organization and the individual in a natural way.
Tremendous goals take time. And I like to use that time, with patience and expertise to motivate people and organizations to flourish and grow to a so-called Strengths Based Culture.

I have always been curious about what drives people and where their behavior comes from. I discovered that I could perfectly apply this curiosity as a researcher. Meanwhile, I’ve been doing research on all kinds of people, such as employees, managers, but also parents, youth, etc. for more than 10 years now. Thanks to my talent Relator, I like to make personal, long-term connections that are based on trust and commitment. I enjoy helping clients to define and achieve their goals. I think research is pointless if its results don't lead to action. I am happy when insights and advice I give are translated into concrete actions. Fortunately, my energy and positivity are often contagious.
In collaboration with Trailblazing People, my research forms the start and evaluation for the Strengths Based trajectories.

I've been interested in human behavior from an early age. I enjoy the differences between people. I want to know how the other person works, what drives that person and where someone's talents lie. In addition, I am constantly working on development and growth. For myself and for the people I work with. That's where my passion and energy for the work as a coach come from. As a talent coach, I am a catalyst who, based on genuine enthusiasm, encourages others to get the most out of themselves and the situation. I achieve this through the use of my most important talents: with my Empathy, Relator and Woo I connect with the other and create the basis for a great collaboration. I use my Maximizer, Positivity, Developer and Futuristic to continue to pursue continuous growth together. And where necessary I make adjustments along the way with my talents Strategic, Input and Command.

"Act first, think later." Activator, my number one talent, has brought me tremendous benefits and continues to do so. It took me a while to realize that this was a talent and not a pitfall. With a good dose of positivity and an eye for your talents, together we will ensure that we bring out the best in you. I truly believe that when we collectively focus on what we are naturally good at, everything else falls into place. More happiness, increased productivity, and a more enjoyable environment for everyone. We make a great match if you want me to provoke your thoughts and inspire you to take action.

Every person is unique and has a unique set of qualities. Developing these into strengths requires inspiring stimulation and the right circumstances that support this. As a coach, I encourage you to get to know, appreciate and develop yourself. I achieve this
by using my most important talents. With Adaptability and Empathy, I am calm and easily connect with the other and have a keen awareness to also hear what isn’t said. Learner, Strategic and Connectedness give me the ability to quickly see relevant patterns. Well-designed talent management provides benefits for both employees and organizations. With Connectedness I look for common ground to achieve objectives that contribute to the growth of both.
