Where do you come in?
Most leadership advice tells you to push harder.
My work starts from the opposite direction.
It comes from two places: years spent inside organisations building self-organisation from the ground up – first as an employee and watching it collapse without the right conditions, later driving a Holacracy implementation from the HR seat – and a decade of embodiment and somatic training since, learning to trust the body as a source of wisdom, not something to manage or override.
I bring both into how organisations shape their culture and grow their leaders. Change that lasts doesn’t come from pushing harder. It comes from recognising what’s already trying to happen, in a person or in the system around them.
“There is intelligence in every person and every system. I help you tap into it.”
What others say
I have been working with Annemieke for more than five years. We don’t talk to each other every day, but when we do work together, it always feels intimate from the get go. Maybe that’s because Annemieke listens so well and is just that personally connected to her work. Either way, she brings great quality – which creates a collaboration that always goes a little deeper than usual.
Annemieke is my first line of support when it comes to HR issues in the context of self-organization. There are plenty of people out there who have ideas about this, and very few who have actually worked and lived in organizations like this their whole working lives – for whom it is actually totally normal. That makes Annemieke one of the few coaches I regularly recommend to my own customers.
Annemieke is open, honest and has a great feel for the human side of organizations, as well as the developmental needs of people and teams. She helped us take the next step beyond Holacracy.
Annemieke works with a lot of compassion and a lot of clarity. She knows how to properly hold up a mirror that will make you discover your new insights. She invites you to explore and go deeper – creating clarity together.
Collaborating with Annemieke really is awesome. She has helped me several times, during periods when my thoughts seemed completely chaotic. Annemieke provides clarity, structure and knows how to get you back on track.
