Such expertise will not be found in Groningen; it resides in Amsterdam. I serve as the Business Coach for the top 1% of entrepreneurs in the Netherlands.
Because you not only aspire to earn substantial income, but also to maintain a healthy physique and cultivate strong relationships with individuals who invigorate you.
Are you merely improvising in your entrepreneurial endeavors? Are both your energy levels and personal financial reserves falling short of expectations? Do you find yourself managing your team like a kindergarten teacher rather than leading as a valued entrepreneur? In essence: are you not the entrepreneur you aspire to be? It's time for decisive action. As a professional Business Coach, I have successfully assisted numerous entrepreneurs from Groningen in achieving increased revenue, enhanced profitability, and greater personal fulfillment. When will you take this crucial step?
1. You are constrained and are currently not maximizing your potential in life and/or your enterprise. Your energy levels could be significantly higher, as could the balance in your personal bank account.
2. You lack focus, a clear mission in life, and seek to uncover your true motivations. Alternatively, you experience poor sleep and frequently feel restless.
3. Outwardly, you are successful, yet you lack enthusiasm in your work and occasionally feel bored and unfulfilled internally.
4. While your business performance is satisfactory, your relationship has become stagnant or you find yourself in frequent disagreements. There is an insufficient degree of freedom and independence.
5. You need to make several critical decisions and wish to deliberate your dilemma with an independent sounding board.
6. You have received a substantial sum from the sale of your enterprise or for other reasons, and you are contemplating: what next?
7. Should you further scale your business or is now the opportune moment to divest your company? Have you found yourself operating more as a manager or facilitator than an entrepreneur?
8. You have reached your limit with your business partner(s), and the time is opportune to address this. However, how do you approach such a situation?
You aspire to growth: in revenue, in profitability, and in cultivating superior client relationships. As an experienced Business Coach, I facilitate your achievement of strategic, operational, and organizational objectives. Through incisive questioning, we ascertain whether your current vision and mission remain congruent with your entrepreneurial aspirations. Our focus encompasses both professional and personal development, ensuring that professional success is not achieved at the expense of personal well-being. My coaching methodology is transparent and results-oriented. The outcomes of my coaching engagements are consistently quantifiable. No further justifications. It's time for transformation. It's time for decisive action. Hundreds of entrepreneurs from Groningen have already embarked on this journey.
Coaching sessions are conducted at my practice in Amsterdam. Digital coaching sessions are also available, allowing for interaction with you in Groningen while I am in Amsterdam, should that arrangement be more convenient. Whether online or in-person, I guarantee the same transformative impact essential for your growth.
For years, you have observed with admiration your competitors operating locally within the municipality of Groningen, nationally, or even internationally. Why do they consistently achieve success while you do not? The answer is straightforward: they invest in professional Business Coaches, a step you have yet to take. This hesitation may stem from a reluctance to commit to the investment in an effective Business Coach, a fear of an honest sparring partner who will confront you with unvarnished truths, or an unpreparedness for personal development. Yet, this is precisely what you require, as your enterprise will only expand as you develop.
During an initial consultation with me as your Business Coach, the scope of our engagement will be immediately clarified. My approach is consistently personalized and bespoke; I do not adhere to a generic, predetermined roadmap. My objective is to empower you to cultivate a more fulfilling, purposeful, and successful life. Should this not be achieved, I will fully absorb the cost of the entire coaching session. This is my commitment.
My core impetus is to empower individuals to fulfill their inherent potential, thereby enabling you to execute your essential responsibilities. This commitment has been intrinsic to my professional ethos for as long as I can recall, stemming from my own extensive experiences navigating both significant triumphs and profound challenges, across personal and professional spheres.
Over two decades ago, I commenced my career in the due diligence practice at Deloitte, subsequently serving as a Mergers & Acquisitions Advisor at KPMG Corporate Finance. Since 2000, I have operated as an independent entrepreneur: following a trajectory that included a tenure as a commodity broker in London and a period in Mexico, since 2004, I have served as a professional Business Coach for entrepreneurs and executives committed to maximizing their potential.
For entrepreneurs and executives, the demarcation between professional and personal life is often indistinct. As an entrepreneur, husband, and father, I possess firsthand understanding of this dynamic. Consequently, I offer a platform for discourse on both business challenges and pertinent personal affairs. This integrated approach reflects my intrinsic identity: serving as a sounding board, a strategic advisor, and a trusted confidant, all in one capacity.
Through over a thousand engagements, I have coached hundreds of entrepreneurs and executives, enabling them to achieve the results you likely aspire to.
In addition to my role as a Business Coach, I have over two decades of experience guiding entrepreneurs as a Business Acquisition Advisor through the divestment process of their companies.
I am a certified NLP Practitioner and a member of both the Dutch Association of Professional Coaches (NOBCO) and the International Coach Federation (ICF).

Whether you are 25 or 45, an employee or an entrepreneur, every man can benefit from enhanced decisiveness, adventure, and enjoyment in his life. If you are committed to making a significant impact and refuse to succumb to procrastination, monotony, and compromise, then this book is for you.
‘Book for MEN is groundbreaking.’
– Eugene Roorda of BNR Nieuwsradio on the bestseller Book for MEN
Life is simple, yet not easy. It can be perceived as a board game. The more proficient you are with its rules, the more effectively you can focus on substantive matters. The sole path to both success and happiness lies in Conscious Awareness.
‘Smit adeptly bridges the gap between spirituality and the corporate world.’
– Het Financieele Dagblad on The Rules of the Game
My approach is consistently personalized and bespoke, eschewing standardized step-by-step plans or rigid methodologies. The caliber of communication with oneself and with others dictates the extent of success and contentment in one's life, as no individual exists in isolation. Consequently, my approach is characterized by depth and an integrated perspective on life and business operations, free from superficial tactics or abstract theorizing.
The solution for you is straightforward, yet far from facile: to cultivate a genuinely more conscious life by establishing clear, meaningful objectives and making authentic choices.
In a concise video interview with Peter Gielissen, I provide further elucidation on my methodology Insight Action Harvest ©.
Successful entrepreneurs in Groningen engage a coach, driven by their desire for rapid, tangible, and sustainable results.
1. You Establish Motivating Objectives
A coach assists you in clarifying, formulating, and charting your objectives, ensuring alignment with your personal values.
2. You prioritize and make authentic choices
A coach provides insights and tools to facilitate prioritization and decision-making, thereby fostering greater success in both your professional and personal life.
3. You possess focus and equilibrium
As a coach, serving as a mirror, sounding board, and trusted advisor, I guide you in taking targeted action to realize your strategic objectives.
1. You are not operating within your natural flow
You feel stagnant and are not fully realizing your potential, despite a strong desire to live authentically and in alignment with your core values.
2. You are isolated and caught in a cycle of stagnation
You are surrounded by sycophants. You lack a strategic sparring partner who understands your specific context, provides objective reflection, and facilitates decisive decision-making.
3. You are experiencing disequilibrium
You lack strategic focus, suffer from sleep deprivation, and often feel restless, despite recognizing that personal well-being and professional success are intrinsically linked.
My commitment is to empower you to cultivate a more fulfilling, purposeful, and successful life. Should this objective not be met, the entirety of the coaching session will be complimentary. This is my unwavering pledge.
