Is this you?
You got promoted because you were great at your job. Then the job changed completely, and nobody handed you a manual.
Maybe it looks like this:
-
You're managing people but nobody taught you how
-
You're navigating organizational politics and it's draining you
-
You've got a team that isn't performing and you're not sure why
-
You're stuck between what your team needs and what the business demands
-
You're a senior leader who feels isolated because it's lonely at the top
-
You've moved to a new country and Dutch directness is throwing you off
-
You're wondering whether leadership is even the right path for you
If you're nodding, you're not failing. You're leading without support. That's fixable.
This isn't textbook leadership theory
It's coaching grounded in a decade of actually building and leading teams in fast-growing organizations.
Insider perspective
I've hired, managed, developed, and sometimes let go of people across multiple organizations. When I coach you on team dynamics, stakeholder management, or having difficult conversations, it's because I've been in your seat.
Scenario-based
We work with your actual challenges, not hypothetical case studies. Your team conflict, your difficult stakeholder, your promotion conversation. Every session is built around what you're facing right now.
Leadership assessment
We start with a clear picture of where you are as a leader: your strengths, your blind spots, and where the biggest opportunities for growth sit. No generic questionnaires. A real assessment based on how you show up in your specific context.
The Leader Elevate Programme

What Our Clients Say

I've had coaching sessions with Christina and it was super insightful in helping me navigate my career and improve some of my leadership skills. As a natural people leader, I find Christina quite easy to work with and someone who has a lot of knowledge in dealing with a variety of people issues

She is very approachable, friendly, perceptive, patient, has a great sense of humour, asks the right questions, and holds the mirror to you when you need to find yourself. I could visibly see the positive changes in my work mindset after her coaching.

We started from a career coaching perspective and very quickly she was able to link things I said during different conversations and ask the right questions to help me get more clarity. For more ad hoc cases, she's also very hands on and able to come up with the right techniques to apply.

Common questions
I'm a first-time manager. Is this for me?
Absolutely. Many first-time managers get promoted because they were great at their previous job, not because they were trained to lead. Leadership Elevate is built to close that gap: practical skills for managing people, giving feedback, handling conflict, and building a team, grounded in real scenarios.
I'm already a senior leader. Will this still be relevant?
Yes. Senior leadership brings different challenges: organizational politics, influencing without authority, executive presence, managing through ambiguity. We tailor every session to your level and your specific context. This is not a one-size-fits-all programme.
How is this different from executive coaching?
Most executive coaching is abstract and reflective. This is concrete and action-oriented. We work with your actual challenges, not theoretical frameworks. You leave every session with something specific to do differently.
Can this help with team conflict?
Yes. Team dynamics are one of the most common reasons leaders seek coaching. We work through the root causes, not just the symptoms, and build strategies you can implement immediately.
Can my organization sponsor this?
Yes. Many organizations fund coaching for their leaders as part of development budgets. I can provide documentation, invoicing, or a conversation with your HR team to support the business case.
Do I need to be based in the Netherlands?
No. I work with leaders across Europe, the United States, and Canada. Sessions are online, so location isn't a barrier.
