My Practice
I help organisations build the relational and systemic capabilities that make transformation stick. My approach weaves creative strategy, systems thinking, and experiential practice, working with leadership teams to surface patterns, navigate tensions, and open new possibilities for aligned action amidst complexity and change.
Three Interconnected areas:
When leadership, team dynamics, and culture work are in concert, organisations build the adaptive capacity to navigate complexity, embrace productive tension, and cultivate inclusive, feedback-rich cultures where change is deeply embedded and enduring.
Leadership Development
Cultivating the social, emotional and collective intelligence leaders need to navigate uncertainty, hold complexity, and lead from clarity and purpose.
Team Coaching
Strengthening the relational field within teams to unlock collective intelligence, deepen collaboration, and amplify shared impact.
Purpose & Culture Evolution
Aligning organisational purpose with operations in practice, fostering cultures of trust, learning and continuous adaptation where change is deeply embedded, effective and enduring.
‘Relationships are everything, and everything is in relationship.’

How I Work:
I partner with organisations, leaders and their teams, and design customised development pathways.
My approach typically unfolds as follows:
-
I begin with an assessment through 1-on-1 conversations, diagnostic tools, stakeholder interviews, and questionnaires, where I learn more about the team and the organisation. This phase is focused on building connection, rapport, and psychological safety, while also recognising the system’s needs, strengths, and challenges within its current context. I aim to uncover leadership, team, and organisational dynamics, challenges, hopes, and aspirations, and set a path and scope for change.
-
Based on insights and topics gathered during the Meet phase, I design custom workshops and coaching sessions, drawing from a multi-method approach (see more on the tools I use below). I stay true to the organisation's context, meeting the team and leaders where they are, creating meaningful spaces that support both inner and outer development, experiential learning, and deep and embodied transformation. Here, I uncover underlying dynamics, hidden assumptions, and systemic patterns within the team or organisation. This stage is about inquiring into the present reality and becoming aware of the action logic that guides decisions.
Together, we experiment and expand in an iterative process, bringing diverse and divergent perspectives to the room to explore purpose and change on both an individual and collective level.
-
Once we have worked together with your leaders and teams to uncover existing relationship dynamics and explore new perspectives and possibilities together, we focus on aligning individual and collective goals, values, and strategies to foster cohesion and forward momentum.
The goal is to design a strong team and leadership culture that moves from reactive to creative, enabling the organisation to support change implementation, navigate conflict, and build strong interpersonal relationships. This requires an awareness to self-correct and adapt as needed, ensuring that all voices are heard and that the group moves forward with clarity and shared purpose. -
I support the integration of new rituals, practices, behaviours, and frameworks into the organisation's daily operations. This phase is about taking intentional, aligned actions based on the insights gained in earlier stages. The outcomes of these actions are observed and used as feedback for ongoing inquiry, creating a continuous loop of action, reflection, and learning.
I help to equip leaders and their teams to embody, sustain, and evolve these practices independently, carrying forward the skills and insights needed for continued adaptation, appropriation and learning.
Tools & Approaches:
I blend business consultancy and creative practice with living systems principles and cutting-edge organisational science.
Depending on the need, I draw from:
Organisational Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC): Team coaching and group facilitation
Co-Active Coaching (CTI): Individual leadership development
Process Work & Deep Democracy: Navigating diversity, power dynamics and conflict
Regenerative Leadership & Development: Building adaptive, purposeful leadership and organisations
Theory U and Social Presencing Theatre: Accessing deeper levels of awareness to sense and shape emerging futures, individually and collectively.
Systems Thinking, Edge & Change Theory: Understanding the dynamics and process of change, patterns, emergence and working with them over time.
Embodied & Arts-Based Methods: Somatic approaches, creative collage, and experiential practices that access deep insight beyond the cognitive.
Experiential Learning Design: Embedding creative and systems capabilities as continuous skill and capacity building.
For complex transformations, I often partner with other specialists in areas like AI, regenerative business, or design as needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Systems coaching works with teams and organisations as whole systems, not just individuals.
I help teams and organisations see the patterns, dynamics and structures that shape how they work together, using a hybrid of coaching and consulting.
As a coach, I hold space for you to see your system clearly - surfacing tensions and what's actually at stake.
As a consultant, I bring tools, frameworks and content expertise to support the change you're working toward.
My expertise draws from creative and impact strategy, sustainability and technology transitions, systems thinking, and organisational dynamics.
For complex transformations, I collaborate with other practitioners - bringing in specialists in areas like AI, regenerative business, or design as needed.
We work together to understand root causes (not just symptoms), define what success looks like, moving from insights to deep and lasting behavioural change.and creating pathways to tangible outcomes and results. -
Executive coaching is 1-on-1 work with individual leaders to develop their leadership capacity, navigate challenges, and achieve their goals. Team coaching works with an intact team as a system - the whole team is the client. I help the team improve how they work together, surface dynamics, build trust, and strengthen their collective intelligence and performance together.
-
Both. I work online for ongoing coaching and virtual facilitation, in-person for workshops and offsites across Europe, and in hybrid formats that blend both. Based in Amsterdam, I regularly travel for in-person engagements and work virtually with international teams across time zones.
-
I bring together systems thinking, learning design, and creative strategy - not just coaching or consulting. I focus on building internal capacity, not creating dependency. My work emphasises developing systems literacy and fluency so teams and organisations can continue evolving after our engagement ends. I also bring deep cross-cultural capacity and the ability to work across languages and contexts.
-
That's completely normal. Book a free 30-minute introduction call and we can explore your situation together. I'll help you get clarity on what kind of support would be most valuable - whether that's coaching, facilitation, a learning program, or something else entirely.
-
Both. For individual coaching, team coaching, and facilitation work, I typically work directly with clients.
For more complex organisational transformations or specialised programmes, I often partner with other change-makers, strategists, facilitators, coaches, consultants and subject-matter experts depending on the topic or need. I also design and deliver workshops, guest lectures, and learning programmes for academic institutions and executive education programmes, particularly on systems thinking, regenerative leadership, power dynamics, and navigating transformation.
For academic institutions, I can support both programme delivery and internal change capacity work
