The preeminent Business Coach is not to be found in Haarlem; rather, their expertise resides in Amsterdam.
I facilitate not only the attainment of substantial financial prosperity but also the cultivation of robust physical well-being and meaningful relationships with individuals who provide you with vitality.
Do you experience a sense of stagnation or aimlessness in your entrepreneurial journey? Is there a need to elevate your energy levels, commensurate with the desired growth in your personal financial portfolio? Do you perceive yourself more as a facilitator of rudimentary tasks than as a highly valued entrepreneur? In essence, are you falling short of the entrepreneurial archetype you aspire to be? It is time for decisive action. As a seasoned Business Coach, I have successfully guided numerous entrepreneurs in Haarlem towards augmented revenue, enhanced profitability, and increased personal fulfillment. These tangible outcomes are equally attainable for your enterprise.
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, profitability, enhanced client relationships, and team efficacy. However, this professional expansion should not come at the expense of personal well-being. As an experienced Business Coach, I provide strategic guidance to achieve your tactical, operational, and organizational objectives. Through incisive questioning, we critically assess the alignment of your current vision and mission with your entrepreneurial identity. The outcomes of my Business Coaching are consistently quantifiable. Eliminate all pretexts for inaction. Hundreds of entrepreneurs from Haarlem have already leveraged this approach to their advantage.
Coaching sessions are conducted at my practice located in Amsterdam. Digital coaching sessions are also available. Whether you are situated in Haarlem and I in Amsterdam, online or in-person, I guarantee to deliver the transformative impact essential for your growth.
Entrepreneurs in Haarlem are consistently outperforming you. The disparity in outcomes is straightforward: they strategically invest in professional Business Coaches—a commitment you have yet to undertake. This reluctance may stem from apprehension regarding the investment, fear of an candid sparring partner who will confront you with unvarnished truths, or perhaps an unwillingness to embark on personal development. Nevertheless, this is precisely the catalyst required for your advancement, as your enterprise's growth is inextricably linked to your personal evolution.
During an initial consultation with me as your Business Coach, the scope of our engagement will be immediately clarified. My methodology is consistently personalized and bespoke; I do not adhere to a generic, pre-defined 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 commitment is my guarantee.
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).

‘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 Haarlem engage a coach because they demand rapid, tangible, and sustainable outcomes.
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.
