My philosphy

Since I got to know the talent approach, I can't help looking for the talent in every person I meet. The fact that every person has a talent is promising and could make things work in every situation. At least as long as we learn to see how our undermining thoughts, behaviors and actions are prohibiting us to use our full potential.  This may sound complicated, but it doesn't have to be.   

 

I have worked internationally with this talent approach  (Europe, China and North America), and the wonderful thing is: no matter the nationality or level of education, everyone can use this as a tool for positive change.

 

 

 

My experience & education

- Over 15 yrs/3000 hrs experience as a 1-on-1 coach and as trainer in programs for talent development, (executive) leadership & coaching 

- 3 yr Pulsar Academy for Transformation and Change (certified coach)

- Master’s degree in Industrial Design Engineering at the Technical University of Delft (expertise in innovation, creativity and change management).

 

 

 

This Blog

I would like to inspire people to get to know their talent. Next to this: Wouldn't it be wonderful if we learn to see and acknowledge other people's (hidden) talents? I hope that I can contribute by telling stories about people who show their talent in a special way and by sharing knowledge about how to use your talent.

"I am thrilled when I see a person changing from a follower:

'The situation I am in makes me do or think...'

into an initiator:

'I, myself, can influence my situation'."

" I had the honor of working with Anke recently as she delicately, professionally and deliberately guided me through identifying my unique talent, and helped me understand how to leverage this talent in my professional and personal life.

The methodology Anke uses is efficient and effective, however, most importantly Anke's compassion, genuine warmth, and gentle but deliberate guidance is the backbone to the amazing work she does. My admiration for Anke and her talent, and appreciation for the opportunity to work with her runs so very deep.

Anke has an amazing ability to get to the heart of complex issues. She helped me through an especially difficult professional time, allowing me to see the challenges in a new light and tackle them in a new way. I had never had a coach and wasn’t sure what to expect, but Anke’s grounded, thoughtful and wonderfully warm nature immediately put me at ease. The insights we discovered together and the knowledge and ideas she shared were immensely helpful with my immediate challenges, and they are lessons I’ll be able to apply to many parts of my life, now and in the future.
