    Results I help my clients achieve

    High impact CFO

    I coached a CFO client to step up in his leadership impact and made a significant change in the structure and profitability of the 800M family owned company.

    Dream CEO role

    I coached my client to create an exit from a SVP corporate role. After a sabbatical my client created himself the ideal CEO role within a family owned business and reshaped it from 30M to 100M profitable business.

    EXIT, WALK and CREATE MY DREAM

    I guided several of my clients to create win-win exit agreements with the former employers and after a sabbatical period (often taking to time to walking long distance hikes or pilgrimages) to create a new fulfilling second career opportunities in their zone-of-genius afterwards.

    Family business transition

    I have coached a family owned business through the generational handover from the founder generation to the next generation. Focussing on grooming of the young leaders for the future roles and the management team to be prepared for the leadership transition.

    Kill-my-Darling or focus on a handful 100X clients

    I coached my client through a reinvention of his business, a kill-my-darling. Instead of adding more people to his consultancy business, he killed-his former standard business and focussed on the few 100X clients. As a consequence he downsized his team to a small group of experts. Now he is serving a handful of 100X clients in a very profitable setup. He values his freedom, especially time, money, relationship and purpose!

Martin’s coaching was pivotal in helping me navigate these transformations and achieve success at every stage.
