"Big fat kudos to Bas and Louise. Together they organized our annual culture day that was all about yourself and getting to know each other better. The day consisted of inspiring and stimulating workshops that were well supervised. Great how safety was created and how the response was to individual issues. In collaboration with Stach, we will continue to strengthen our culture and team development."

“I have rarely met someone with an empathetic capacity like Louise has. When you open up to her approach you can achieve unprecedented results. Every person knows milestones on his or her path in which people stand by you who help you to enter the next phase of your life. Louise understands that art. During that journey, she provides space when necessary, but delineates when necessary.”

“I went from unconscious to conscious during the coaching and got to know myself better. The pieces of the puzzle fell into place during the process and it became clear to me why I do / did things the way I do them. Before the coaching I felt like a fly that just keeps flying into a window to go outside in the summer, but the coaching has opened the window and so I could continue. I am now bubbling with energy again and making more conscious choices based on my values.

The coaching was exactly what I needed. All the steps I have taken have contributed to the result in their entirety. Louise is really a tour guide and has let me find my path myself and let me discover why I do things the way I do them. Now I'm back at the steering wheel. A big 10!”

“I have rediscovered an important part of myself and I am very grateful for that. I am also glad that I came to fundamental insights so quickly. The coaching has been very enriching. I have learned to solve my 'issues' myself, from within. Thanks!”

“I followed the Leadership from a Coaching Approach training by Louise. Louise's qualities came to light right from the start. Within one morning she managed to transform a group of 7 participants who did not know each other, into a trusted team, where everyone felt safe in the new training environment. In the further course of the training I admired her expertise, coaching qualities, empathy and inspiring ability, but above all her warm personality that brought out the very best in all students. The training has further shaped me and is still a valuable experience in my work life but also in my private life. I hope to cross Louise's path once more.”

"We got to know each other better as a person, and as colleagues. The coaching has led to many more exchanges on a human level. We now understand each other better, and feel more trust. We are more open and we dare to share more with each other, also matters we are uncertain about. Most importantly, we can now express our criticism towards each other more easily, and we have the confidence that we can handle any conflict together. We operate more as one team inwards and outwards. Within our collaboration there is room for diversity and the experience thereof, while we still appear as a unity. All this while retaining a lot of humor and fun."

“The coaching has given me insight. In my thinking process, in my saboteurs, in my abilities. For me, my breakthrough was the realization that I am at the steering wheel of my own life and therefore, I can go as fast or slow as I want and need. And I can’t express in words how happy I am with what it has brought me.
It is good to stand still when you are having a hard time, instead of running faster. Stand still, look at what is happening in and with you and what is important to you. Act from your values ​​instead of from beliefs about 'what should be'.
The cycle of self-criticism and worry has been broken within me. I have been given the tools to move forward. Thus, my thinking process has changed.
It was nice and good to determine the flight path together, great that Louise can do that like this, she listens really well and is very sharp in a very pleasant way.
What I find very impressive is the fact that the coaching was more than just gaining insight. Louise has taught me very practical exercises that ensure that I can continue with those insights in a daily practice. That's great, and it gives me a grip to hold onto and strength.
I rarely give a 10, but I can't ignore it. It is one of the best things I have ever done / experienced in the context of my own development.
If you want to be coached by Louise: she is a very warm and cordial person, but meanwhile very smart and very experienced. Vulnerability and openness are a plus for her. You can take a good look with her at what it is that you get stuck on. Such a trajectory is not something vague and woolly, but very down to earth and realistic.”
