coaching & advice for the creative industries

I am part of the Nonons coaching institute. If by any chance my agenda is fully booked I am happy to suggest other coaches. We have a divers group of top coaches so that we'll always find the perfect fit for you.

Is this recognizable?

The creative sector can demand a lot from you. Despite your passion and urgency, you can often experience setbacks, political mood swings and subsidy losses.This goes for individuals as well as institutes and organizations. There are uncertainties; you have to perform under pressure and in the spotlight; people are watching you... It is difficult to stay strong and flexible enough to survive.

  1. 1

    start

    We start with the defining your goal. A clear goal consists of four elements. It is: attractive, urgent, measurable and achievable.

  2. 2

    insights

    What are the obstacles standing in between you and your goal? Why is it that you haven't managed to reach the goal by yourself.

  3. 3

    strategy

    we explore the best strategy to reach your goal by approaching it from either a business or a personal point of view. spoiler alert... most of the time it's a combination of both.

  4. 4

    planning & control

    in between sessions is where the magic happens and were you put in most of the work. During the sessions we'll monitor that progress. What did you do, what did it bring you, does it have an effect on your goal, what is the next step?

  5. 5

    end

    A coaching trajectory ends when you've reached your goal or when you've built the foundations for you to achieve your goal yourself.

A passion for the creative industries
As a youngster I made music myself. Later, I became an artist manager. A little later than that and I worked as an artistic and business manager for many years before I made my transformation into a coach. Love for the creative sector runs through my veins. That is also why I like to coach artists, creative entrepreneurs and freelancers. I am also a member of the Amsterdam Art Council for music and music theatre.

an experienced sparring partner and coach
Through these years of work experience in the cultural and creative industry I understand and relate to complex questions and situations. Wether it's practical and business related or more on a personal level.
