Conflict of Interests vs. Synergy of Interests
Several years ago, I was asked by the founder of a medium-sized company to coach one of his senior consultants. At the end of the session, my only recommendation for this consultant was to take her Christmas holidays, take time off, enjoy time with her family and see what unfolded. A few months after, sheContinue reading “Conflict of Interests vs. Synergy of Interests”
Freedom vs. Liberation
Buddha Image by DuongNgoc1987 from Pixabay External Freedom Most of us living in the western world are free: We have a tremendous amount of wealth (compared to most human beings on this planet), we live in democratic societies (maybe not as democratic as we are taught at school, but all in all quite free), andContinue reading “Freedom vs. Liberation”
Playing Big vs. Playing True
In the world of coaching, we are often encouraged to “go bigger”, and “dream bigger.” Sometimes, that’s what we need.

External Circumstances Matter
If you’ve worked with me as a coach, or if you are in the Personal Development community, you’ll often hear how you can empower yourself by working on your limiting beliefs, and how you can create your work and your life from the Inside-Out. If you’re not familiar with that, or need an important reminder,Continue reading “External Circumstances Matter”
On Creating a Lovely Default Future
In The Prosperous Coach, Steve Chandler and Rich Litvin explain one of the powers of great coaching: It helps the client shift from their Default Future (what would happen in their life and business without coaching), to a Created Future. Recently, I’ve been thinking that this is great, as we can create phenomenal (and Impossible)Continue reading “On Creating a Lovely Default Future”
Circles of Responsibility
In previous articles, I explained the power of taking responsibility (Responsibility, Leadership and Integrity in Challenging times, and Conscious Leadership).
