I founded 4U2GROW Coaching & Training in 2010, based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. I help leaders and international teams build bridges across cultures so they spend less time lost in translation and more time focused on their jobs and roles with clarity and confidence. Having built a life across Belgium, China and the Netherlands myself, I know firsthand what it takes to bridge cultures, not just professionally but also personally. That is the lens I bring to every program I deliver. I work in Dutch, English, French and Mandarin Chinese and deliver programs worldwide and online. I have a large network of trainers/coaches I collaborate with regularly so I can accommodate larger requests or bigger projects.
