LEADERSHIP COACH AMSTERDAM
LEADERSHIP COACHING FOR THOUGHTFUL HUMANS WHO ARE REDEFINING WHAT LEADERSHIP REALLY MEANS, FEELS AND LOOKS LIKE IN WORK & LIFE
Hi, I'm Hannah - a leadership coach in Amsterdam and online.
I partner as a coach for leaders, founders, professionals, expats who want to work on their self-leadership or inner-leadership.
I believe that leadership is largely about how we lead ourselves.
How do I make choices? How do I show up? Can I stay connected to myself as I navigate challenge or growth? How does my story influence or shape my style of leadership? The answers to those questions determine how you can show up as a leader for yourself and others.
As an experienced coach, I hold space and guide you to deepen your self trust, sense of identity and success, and deeply connect you to an aligned and embodied version of leadership.
Leadership coaching is for career, business, life... But most importantly, it's for you.
WHAT IS LEADERSHIP COACHING?
My approach is to partner with you and hold space to work through the ups and downs of knowing and leading yourself - alongside the realities of being a leader in whatever position you hold.
It's a collaborative process. Together we explore your relationship with yourself and your sense of leadership. That might be defining your vision and objectives, regulating stress, creating space to level up and grow, communicating in new, different or difficult dynamics, or finding consistent motivation when the to-do list is winning.
What makes my approach different is that it's personal, with a therapeutic touch. It isn't surface-level leadership performance coaching. It's deeper - about your sense of self and identity, your self-trust, your self-belief, your courage and how you embody all of it. I hold the space and offer the tools for you to create your own conditions to succeed - because I firmly believe you already have what you need inside you. It's about drawing it out and using it in the way that works for you.
QUICK FIND
WHO IS LEADERSHIP COACHING FOR?
You might be:
-
A leader or manager who's realised the job is less about the org chart than about how you hold yourself
-
A founder or small business owner navigating the particular rollercoaster of managing yourself and the inner baggage that you realise you have to confront when running your own business
-
A professional stepping into more responsibility and feeling the gap between the title and how that responsibility feels the inside
-
An expat working out how to lead in a new or mixed culture
-
Someone who's doing well on paper but privately feeling like they are performing, and wondering who or what they're performing for
If you want someone who'll hold space without jumping to conclusions, without judging and without expectation, we'll probably work well together.
Working with Hannah (TAKE Coaching) is a shining example of how skillful coaching can be a catalyst for positive change. Hannah's ability to listen deeply, provide insightful suggestions, and hold space for deep reflection created a supportive and empowering environment. I emerged with not only a clearer sense of my goals but also new tools to help navigate the challenges ahead. I highly recommend Hannah to anyone seeking a transformative and enriching coaching experience.

WHY WORK WITH ME AS YOUR LEADERSHIP COACH IN AMSTERDAM OR ONLINE?
My career, business and life experience, as well as professional training, has put me in a natural position to be a leadership coach.
I have worked as a senior strategist for corporate businesses like eBay, Google, Tinder, adidas + Danone - so I get commercial pressures and needs, like numbers, profit, KPIs and growth.
I have experience holding space for the stuff you can't put numbers to in my yoga teaching and coaching training.
I have my own personal lived experience of imagining, creating, and growing my own small business. I did my own concepting, business planning. branding and website, and am continuously re-exploring how I can support myself and find support around me.
I can fully relate to the various professional and personal influences and challenges that leading something or someone deals with. However, I strongly believe that success looks different to everyone, so I am a good fit for you if you want to work with someone who will hold space for you to find your own version of it.
I offer discounted try out sessions. So if you're interested, let's have a chat and see if we're a good match.
WHen WOULD someone CONSIDER A LEADERSHIP COACH?
Running your own team or business can be liberating, fun and personally challenging.
In many cases, it can become tricky to separate yourself from what the business needs, or, the other way round, to find and bring more of yourself in to how you lead.
You might want to find a leadership coach if you want support with:
-
Navigating the rollercoaster of leading a business
-
Developing greater self-belief and self-esteem
-
Managing anxiety and stress
-
Setting + managing boundaries
-
Replenishing sense of wellbeing, energy and balance
-
Articulating your vision and setting goals
-
Connecting with your creativity
-
Creating strategies, structures + frameworks for (sustainable!) growth or action
-
Making plans, and sticking to them
HOW LEADERSHIP COACHING WITH ME WORKS
1/ Say hello: book a discounted try-out session. We meet, you ask your questions, we work out if it's a fit.
2/ Deep-dive kick-off (2hr): a reflective worksheet beforehand, then a session to explore everything that's going on. This sets the groundwork.
3/ Regular sessions: 75-minute sessions every two weeks, tailored to you. Interactive tools, journalling between sessions, or simply talking.
4/ Wrap up or keep going: at the end of your block you can close it out, book a holding session, or continue the layers of building and integrating for another block or container.
Sessions can be in person, online, or a blend. Whatever you prefer and are most comfortable with.
I take on a limited number of clients, so if we work together you get my full attention.
