With 20 years of experience in professional coaching and 15 years of experience in corporate environment, including management, I coached a rich variety of individuals from a broad range of industries and multiple countries. Professional coach is your thinking partner. Having a thinking partner can help you to make you aware of the different facets of who you are and better understand what is going on in and around you. If you just try hard to be something different without becoming aware of who you are, in the very next distress situation you will most probably relapse into your usual behaviour. Becoming aware of who you are may give you the key to the change you need. 

​

What to expect:

​

• Serious and profound work on yourself that takes time and efforts

• Thought-provoking and creative, non-judgmental and respectful

• Creating deep awareness, challenging assumptions, broadening perspectives

• With all of that, achieving a sustainable change

​

What not to expect:

​

• that I will train you to be somebody else

• that I will fix you

• that I will follow any kind of a hype

Coaching is helpful in enhancing self-awareness and achieving a sustainable change. Following the definition of the Korn Ferry global competency framework, demonstrating self-awareness is a use of a combination of feedback and reflection to gain productive insight into personal "strengths" and "weaknesses". 

​

Among these competencies, self-awareness is a blind spot in the organisations across the world. Organisations and individuals underestimate the importance of self-awareness, seeing it as a nice-to-have and a "soft" skill, whereas this "soft" skill directly influences organisational and individual success and impacts a higher return on investment of organisations. A study from the Korn Ferry Institute "A Better Return On Self-Awareness" shows that self-awareness correlates with corporate performance: companies with a higher rate of return also employ professionals who exhibit higher levels of self-awareness. ​
