About me
Een beetje achtergrond over mij
̌
Good to meet you here
As a transformation coach, I inspire and guide organisations and teams to work together more consciously and effectively, based on equivalence and shared leadership and ownership. I help organisations become a living system that harnesses collective wisdom, embraces a culture of trust and openness and a clear organisational structure that can handle continuous change and knows how to navigate via tension.
To do this, I use Sociocracy 3.0, Deep Democracy, Agile and Teal principles, non-violent communication, systemic work, ancient wisdom and rituals in the workplace to mark moments and create movement and transformation in teams and organisations. I inspire with dynamic formats and tools that invite all perspectives and promote cocreation, and I look systemically and holistically, both above and below the waterline. You can ask me to facilitate an organisational or team coaching trajectory, as well as a longer-term process, for workshops, training, facilitation and keynotes, as well as online and offline coaching.
In addition to working in organisations, I am a personal leadership coach, women's circle facilitator and ritual facilitator. In my coaching practice, Voice Dialogue, non-violent communication, body- and systemic work are important tools because they are very effective, quick and healthy ways to create wholeness and balance in your personal system. I facilitate you in waking up, being more in charge of yourself and living your true purpose. To live from your personal wisdom.
I love to meet you, share my experiences and knowledge with a lot of love and, together with others, organise regular Sociocracy 3.0 Meetups where we exchange and gain experience and expertise.
With Love,
Dette
Feedback from clients
“‘Over a year, Dette assisted Namahn in reshaping its governance towards sociocracy.
By being both insightful and caring, she gained the trust of all stakeholders. Today,
our governance is better than ever, and we are running it by ourselves.’”
“’Your dedication and investment in preparations with my team lead to what I consider a very successful gathering of all colleagues under my care, with very useful takeaways for all of us. It is not only me saying so, the positive feedback that I am receiving from colleagues is possibly not entirely but nearly unanimous.’ ”
“’Dette adapts her style to the team at hand and always creates a program focused on the specific needs of the situation. The preparing talks are very useful for this, where she listens carefully to the problems and proposes working angles of attack. Every time I called upon her services, she succeeded in obtaining the goal for the team. From motivating and building trust, to uprooting hidden frustrations, which can be cathartic and healing, creating a better group dynamic with more attention and understanding for each other and in the end, resulting in a more effective and solid team. Me and my coworkers cannot thank her enough for this.’”
“Many thanks for everything. It was a perfect team building event, with lots of engagement, active contribution, and positive feedback from colleagues. The programme was an excellent fit, with a good flow and vibe, and we also have quite a number of takeaways to build on.
”
“‘Many thanks, for the presentation but especially for the teambuilding day. The feedback has been great, and I only wish it could have been a longer session (It lasted the whole day). We will be in touch concerning the next steps.’
”
“‘A truly innovative practice. We are definitely open to doing more with this in the future.
’Thank you all, it was a rich experience! The foundation stone has been laid.... and in my opinion also the most important stone...because the concept of the organisational ritual has been accepted within the Federal Public Service at all levels....’ ”
“Dette actively puts out her feelers and thus works in a very focused way. What do you need or have energy for right now? In this way, she also steers during the session. You can also feel her extensive experience with smaller teams and mission-driven organisations. Ideal for us as a self-managing organisation in full development.
”
“‘Much respect for the way Dette takes her audience with her.’ ‘Dette inspires us to look very differently at our own role in collaboration.’ ‘Humility is the word that comes to mind.’ ‘We are going to start this tomorrow.’ ‘A breath of fresh air to learn how to decide like this’. ‘Haunting.’”
“In a calm, positive, inspiring and safe way, with space for emotions, Dette guided us to open ourselves to the exciting change process that is now ahead of us.”
“‘I felt safe’. ‘I was heard’, ‘That we had opposite ideas was not a problem’.... ”
