I move founders from inside their business to above it. Twenty-five years as a CEO, two companies built and sold.
An accomplished founder, CEO or professional looking for a one-to-one approach? Discover Private Advisory →
You built a company that works. Clients who stay. People who are good at their jobs. Numbers that hold up in a bad quarter. By every measure from the outside, you won.
And every decision still comes back to you. Nothing closes without your name on it. You have good people who wait to be told. You hold the title of CEO, and most of your week goes on everyone else's work.
Maybe you feel that enough is enough.
Maybe you just came back from a holiday you could not switch off during. Maybe you noticed that decisions stall the moment you are not in the room. Or maybe you turned 40, 50 or 60, and the round number told you that something has to change in how you run your business and your life.
Wherever it comes from, it is a good moment. Take the more strategic path.
The operating side, where the work gets done. The executive side, where the company gets decided.
Most founders spend way too long on the operating side. They did not choose it. At the start there was nobody else, and somewhere along the way it stopped being temporary.
Nobody is going to promote you to the executive side. Take the seat yourself, and start executing from it this week.
From spinning the wheels to running the company from above it.
Every day and every week, your focus goes on what strategically matters, connected to your goals for the quarter and the year. Every second week, you account for it to a fellow member, and they account to you. Every month, group coaching with me.
From EUR 97 a month. Fourteen days free.
From your current role or identity to your next chapter.
Private work on the decisions that define your business, your life and your identity. You set the pace, every week or every second week, whatever moves you forward at the speed you need.
From EUR 2,800 a month.
Twenty-five years in the chair. I have made the calls my clients are trying to make, and I have made a good number of them the wrong way first.
Two companies built and sold. LIDO-LANG, grown from my father's one-person translation business into an international provider, sold to SeproTec in 2016. XTRF, management software used by more than four hundred companies in over thirty countries, sold to K1 Investment Management in 2021. Both times the sequence was the same: scale the business first, then build the structure, make the founder optional, and only then decide.
Certified High Performance Coach, certified through High Performance Institute. High performance has nothing to do with working more or faster. It means achieving above-average results over the long run, across every major area of your life, business, health and relationships included. Whatever your next chapter is, you have to become the person who can get there. That is what I am trained to help you with.
Ironman. You set a goal most people only think about. You accept that it is a long distance. You keep the discipline when nobody is watching, and you surround yourself with coaches who get you to the finish line. Building a company is the same race. I still have a coach myself.
Dolce vita. Joy and fulfilment belong in the life you are building, and in the road to it, not only at the end.
Fourteen days free. Then EUR 97 a month, or EUR 997 a year.
One email a week, from me. Sometimes a thought to start your week with. Sometimes a lesson that will challenge how you think. Sometimes something I lived through myself. Always about the job of the founder in the CEO seat, and from time to time, an invitation to something you can join.
