Why you need a business mentor

Are more happiness, more peace, more balance or more freedom not attainable for you? When you are in balance, you can achieve success both in business and in life without paying a high price. When you are in balance, you are able to make the right choices.

As a business mentor, I focus on business people, including entrepreneurs and executives. As a business mentor, I focus on guiding and supporting entrepreneurs on a business and personal level. Personal problems are bottlenecks that will hinder you both privately and within your entrepreneurship. My goal as a business mentor is to increase your life happiness on all levels. Both business success and personal happiness.

5 reasons to work with me as a business mentor

Mentoring is all about you. As a business mentor, I help you clarify what your mission is, what your goals are and how you can achieve them with guidance.
As a mentor, I remain neutral. I bring you inspiration to realize goals. The goals you achieve with willpower, perseverance and by making conscious choices.
Mentoring represents a safe, defined environment. Mentoring is all about focusing on issues that are important to you as a person. In doing so, we not only look at the cause of your problem, we proactively seek a solution.
As a business mentor, I am your confidant who really listens to you, takes your interests into account and gives you the attention you need. Only then can you truly achieve your goals. The information remains between us at all times.
As a business mentor, I am the stick. No more excuses, but time for actions that fit your personal goals. So you too can experience happiness and success.

Who is Eelco?

Getting people to do what they are made for. So that you do what you are meant to do. That's what drives me. In fact, I've been doing that for as long as I can remember. Having experienced many high peaks and deep valleys myself, both personally and professionally.

Over 20 years ago I started in the due diligence practice at Deloitte, then as a Corporate Acquisition Consultant at KPMG Corporate Finance. I have been self-employed since 2000: via a detour as a commodity broker in London and a period in Mexico, since 2004 I have been a professional Business Coach for entrepreneurs and executives, who want to get the most out of themselves.

As an entrepreneur or executive, business and personal are not separable. As an entrepreneur, husband and father myself, I know all about that. That's why you can spar with me about business challenges and relevant private matters. Because that's who I am: a sounding board, strategist and confidant all in one.

In the meantime, I have coached hundreds of entrepreneurs and executives in more than a thousand conversations, which has helped them achieve the results you probably have in mind.

In addition to my work as a Business Coach, for more than 20 years I have been assisting entrepreneurs as a Business Acquisition Advisor with selling their business.

I am a certified NLP Practitioner, a member of the Dutch Association of Professional Coaches (NOBCO) and also of the International Coach Federation (ICF).

BUSINESS COACH

Head in the sand and continue to plod on alone

1. You are not in your natural flow
You are stuck and not getting everything out of your life. You are not experiencing optimal happiness. While you so desperately want to be yourself.

2. You are on your own and keep going in circles
You miss a sparring partner who speaks your language. Someone who mirrors you, gives you insights and helps you make decisions.

3. You are out of balance
You lack focus, sleep poorly and often feel restless. In short, you're out of balance. While you know that your personal happiness and business success go hand in hand.

I help you make your life happier, more meaningful and successful. If not, I will take full responsibility for the entire coaching session. That's a promise.
