I was able to implement changes in my routine, organization, planning, and decision-making to enhance workflow and optimize the distribution of management responsibilities. It's had an impact on the way we can lead the organization, but also on identifying what we're getting right as leaders. Realizing that we are more advanced than we imagined in some areas was very important.

I learned to balance my empathetic approach and being a very transparent and outspoken manager, with my inner nature as an introvert. I also realized the need for help in challenging moments, explaining the situation to my team and making them be an active part of alleviating the transition phase. It improved trust-building, without jeopardising the leadership role.

Something sustainably changes in you after this program. It was a great experience. My coach was patient, always actively listening and the questions she used to ask were on point. This program gives you personal growth in a professional environment, which (in the best way) reflects again on your personal life. Alongside gaining the trust needed and the ability to actually delegate, I also developed goals targeting time management, strategic thinking, choosing where to put my effort and much more. I reached and surpassed these coaching goals.

I was surprised by how fast I progressed from being scared to being able to step into my leadership more fully, owning and even enjoying the more challenging aspects of it.
