A broad interest in people, cultures & talents

Years of experience in multinationals and innovative cultures such as LyondellBasell, Terumo BCT and Orange in a variety of jobs from Marketing & Congress Coordinator to Executive Committee Assistant. Since 2009 she has been thoroughly trained in business coaching, emotional management and other communication techniques. 

Passionate about Africa, she travelled and lived for a while in Togo where she spent a lot of time building a network to exchange experiences and to develop new collaborations. In 2004 she followed a specialization Afrika at CIMIC, the Center for Intercultural Management and Intercultural Communication. During the summer of 2018, she participated in a movie with young talented people to fight against old traditions such as polygamy. In December 2018 she finished a training on ‘Social Entrepreneurship’. 

Expertise in motivational analysis of individuals and teams

In 2014 she obtained her accreditation in Profile Dynamics in Almere, based on Dr. Clare Graves philosophy. Research by David McClelland shows that intelligence and school results have little predictive value when it comes to performance. Motivation appears to be the determining factor for better performances (assuming a comparable basic level of required knowledge and skills).

Nancy offers her clients insight into their driving factors, provides them self-insight to reveal what they really find important in their work and encourages their development. Because what drives people deep inside creates motivation, energy and enthusiasm. This makes the difference between an employee who provides good work at a sufficient basic level and an employee who is enthusiastic. Her team trainings are to improve the communication within or between teams. She uses the driving factors to connect people to their organization.

Nancy is member of VESB, the Association for recognized burnout coaches. In March 2017, the VESB | ACSB was established as a quality mark for qualitative guidance in stress and burnout.

She trained consultants and employees in Europe and Africa in the pharma industry, in sales, in the hotel industry etc. The goal of these trainings is to develop a good knowledge of the basics of body language, how to interpret body language and how to build a good rapport or contact during conversations by learning to read the 7 universal micro-expressions.
