About me
Hi, I am Petra - and my passion is to connect and create relationships, and to support people in discovering and developing their full potential.
How did it come about? Over the last 20 years I have moved around in many different industries and worn many different hats. I haven't had what some would call a traditional corporate career. I started my first small business at the age of 18 and never even considered a corporate career. It seemed too "conventional" for me. And yet, opportunities kept coming my way, mostly in entrepreneurial and start-up situations, from very small to large global organizations in leadership positions. I discovered that I love the excitement, growth, challenges and learning that comes with it.
These experiences turned out to be the journey to becoming the coach and trainer I wanted to be. The stops along the way provided me with valuable lessons and knowledge, introduced me to incredible people and reinforced my love and enthusiasm for coaching and leadership, especially in a global and cross-cultural environment.
Today, as a coach, I am the catalyst for others to "break the deadlock", unlock their full potential, discover their purpose and passion, a cheerleader on journeys of transition and leadership.
I specialize in leadership and transition coaching.
