About me
My passion – My coaching business
I am deeply passionate about assisting individuals, whether they are private individuals, managers, or employees, in achieving their significant goals.
My fervent desire is to build a company where clients entrust me as their personal reflective partner. I aspire to cultivate long-term partnerships.
In the role of your coach, I aim to be the person you turn to when facing substantial or minor professional and personal obstacles. Additionally, I am here to guide you when you seek to realign your focus and recalibrate your direction.
The establishment and growth of my coaching business seamlessly align with my extensive leadership experience. Over decades, I have supported and nurtured the success of employees while navigating various life phases as a mother of young children, a single mother, and a career-driven woman.
Embarking on the journey of establishing my own company is a natural progression. Though uncharted territory for me, an inner drive assures me that I am on the right path.
Drawing from my diverse background, including experiences as a mother and a professional, I use this as a framework when attentively listening and posing questions. My aim is to facilitate your self-discovery and help you chart your course.
My Training and the International Coach Federation
I am an Associate Certified Coach (ACC), an accreditation under the International Coach Federation (ICF).
To get there I have:
- Completed basic training and extension (levels 1 and 2) on a coach training, accredited by the International Coach Federation (ICF).
- Passed an oral exam demonstrating that my coaching qualifications correspond to the Professional Certified Coach (PCC) level.
- Passed a written exam demonstrating that I assess and make decisions in accordance with the ICF Core Competencies.
Because I have passed the oral exam at the PCC level, I just need to accumulate enough coaching hours to achieve this next level of certification. Read more about ICF accreditation on my blog Do you have a skilled coach?
Being a certified coach under the ICF requires continuous further training to maintain the skills. I am proud to be an active member of the International Coach Federation (ICF).
When you as a client choose an ICF certified coach, you are assured of receiving good coaching.
My Career Journey
I am a qualified pharmacist with over 25 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry, having worked in Denmark, Switzerland, and England. Since 1997, I have taken on leadership roles, overseeing both larger and smaller teams. My primary focus has been in the realm of global drug registration, where my expertise lies.
Throughout my career, my passion has centered around effective management, with a keen emphasis on supporting employees in achieving success in their respective roles. In addition to managerial responsibilities, I have successfully enhanced the business orientation of my units. This includes the formulation of innovative business strategies, challenging conventional norms, and fostering the development of cross-organizational, multicultural, and high-functioning teams.
Over the course of my extensive career, I have navigated shifts in my own professional roles, progressing from an individual contributor to a Leader, and subsequently to a Leader overseeing other Leaders. I have been a witness to numerous organizational changes, including mergers, acquisitions, and divestments of business areas or companies.
Having lived and worked in diverse countries, my journey culminated in a recent transition from the pharmaceutical industry to the pharmacy sector.
My Personal Life
I am the proud mother of two accomplished adult sons who are carving out their paths in life, and I am fortunate to have embraced the role of a grandmother. Motherhood, a substantial and beautiful journey of transformation, intertwines harmoniously with my role as the companion of a wonderful man, providing fertile ground for continuous personal growth.
My diverse array of interests reflects my zest for life. Reading books and frequenting cinemas have always held a special place in my heart. My passion for creativity knows no bounds, whether it be through drawing, painting, singing, or engaging in various garden projects, albeit often on a smaller scale. The essence lies in the process for me, and I cherish the opportunity to constantly learn and embrace new skills. I firmly believe that change serves as a gateway to unlocking positive possibilities.
Nature holds a special allure for me, and I find solace in hiking, with my latest endeavor being orienteering. Alongside these pursuits, I have immersed myself in yoga for many years, a practice that not only invigorates me but also serves as a wellspring of fresh energy and innovative ideas.
