Testimonials
“I have had the chance to work with Steve for a few months at a particular time of my career and life, and his highly engaging and knowledgeable coaching skills made it a unique, totally fruitful and eye-opening experience.
Steve’s energy and positivity are contagious. I always left each session eager to put to practice our findings and create the change I was longing for.
I feel he adapted to the way I progress and learn, listening and welcoming all topics and emotions while challenging, and remaining focused on results and concrete pragmatic tools to drive change. I was impressed by how the different sessions successfully dealt with specific topics, but at the end all connected back to my very first initial pain point, unlocking for me the door to the next stage and giving me the tools for the transformation.
I also felt that the communication was much more efficient thanks to his own leadership experience in international business and different countries.
He made of this experience a turning point in my journey as a leader, and of course I will also be using many of the learnings in my personal life too. I can only recommend him!”

He is an extremely conscientious coach who helped me through some hurdles, was always available and shared many models to understand the neuroscience of coaching, which in turn allowed me to support my clients. He is a wealth of knowledge, very compassionate, flexible and responsible with our time together. Hands down I would recommend Steve for your coaching prep or general coaching needs.”
“Steve is such an engaging and encouraging coach! Every session was interesting and motivating. He and I got along well from the start, and I have the feeling that’s how it is for most people.

Now that I have done more training and some coaching myself, I’m even more appreciative of how darn good a coach Steve is.”

“Steve was a godsend. He helped me prioritize what was important to me professionally. He introduced me to the concepts of being focused, present and making space. Thanks to him I now can identify when I am being active and when I am being passive. Which is one of the many tools he gave me to improve my productivity. I will never be able to stop turning to him for continuous career advice and support.”
“5 years ago, I decided to become a partner in a start-up company. My passion to grow the company and make a mark, coupled with my enthusiasm to maximize and enjoy moments with my then 2-year-old left me feeling drained. Through his various sessions and visualization exercises (which I really enjoy), Steve identified with me key bottle necks and guided me on how to work through these. I am proud to say that it freed up almost 25% of my time to focus on those aspects of my life that I had been neglecting. The transformation he is able to bring about and inspire me to push my boundaries is phenomenal. Thanks Steve for this incredible self-discovery journey.”
“… what happened to me under Steve’s watchful eye was a profound transformation. This resulted in a balance and a sense of purpose in my life to the extent I have never experienced before. I will be eternally grateful to Steve for coming with me on this incredible journey!”
“More than recovering myself, I rediscovered a “new self” in me. I discovered a wonderful world of positivity where I learned to develop “new muscles” and to fight old self-defeating habits I had unconsciously developed. In short, your coaching allowed me to take control of my thoughts and take back “my power”. Every session with you has given me at least one “aha-moment” about myself and my environment. As a result, I just won a huge project; would this have been possible before coaching with you? NO! ”
“Steve brings a powerful combination of leadership experience (as a former CEO) and insightful coaching expertise to his coaching conversation with clients. I highly recommend Steve to anyone seeking to reach their full leadership potential to become a truly transformational leader.”
“If I had to describe Steve as a business coach in one word, I would choose “Inspirational”. He is one of the rare gems when it comes to business, professionalism and motivation.

Steve is a great mentor and I look forward to co-operating with him again in the future.”

He helped me clarify my vision so that I was able to focus and prioritise with military discipline, provided great perspectives for creating strategic and emotional alignment in the company, and most importantly, challenged me to “Play Big”; where now I am taking marketing share from global consultancies! I would highly recommend Steve as a trusted advisor, and coach.”
“Steve is an outstanding business leader with great people development skills. He provided the thought leadership and played the honest arbiter between the client and the account team. His strategic and fresh perspective always moved the business forward, while his passion, dedication and openness are an inspiration and I was lucky to learn from him.”

He brings an extensive toolbox along with an elastic readiness to explore whatever is up in the moment, and he reminds me to stop and celebrate the milestones and victories, so easy to forget as we strive for excellence. During my journey we have crossed deep rivers, faced storms and reached mountaintops and I am forever grateful to have him by my side as my business coach.”
“It’s hard to find true leadership talent, Steve has it. How to define? Integrity: he does it because it is in him; flair: he gets hot blooded about a good idea; intelligent: he sees what’s coming early and shares it, but lets others enjoy cudos…”
