EXECUTIVE COACHING
“In my own leadership as well as personal development, Claudia has been an invaluable help. In what feels like an easygoing conversation, Claudia knows when to zoom in and ask those deeper questions which lead to personal insight. She is able to create and hold a space where I can work through new solutions, new and better approaches to my leadership. On a team level, Claudia’s facilitation skills build trust and courage which made us able to talk more openly and be more constructive in our cooperation and problem-solving. I think I am a more grounded leader, and more effective in dealing with other people – somehow, daily performance becomes more human as well. I recommend Claudia without hesitation if you are looking for an executive coach and facilitator to grow yourself and your team”.
– Susanne Bugge, Head of IT Operations, Ministry of Foreign Affairs Denmark
”The fantastic thing about a session with Claudia is that I can start out with a concrete problem or a challenge that I have in relation to other people – a situation that drains away my energy – and then I suddenly experience being lifted beyond it, away from being part of the problem. Throughout the conversation, Claudia asks those sharp questions, helping me shed a light on the situation and get to clear insight. She leads me through a process to the point where the problem is no longer there – or at least to where it looks so different from before that I can much more easily figure out how to deal with the situation.”
Anita Hoff, Project Secretary, Maersk Drilling – Technical Organisation – New Building Department
”You have been such an inspiration to me and I am looking very much forward to meeting you again and be able to learn and develop thanks to your brilliant coaching.
Very best Regards,
Lise Mikkelsen, Project Secretary, Maersk Drilling – Technical Organization
”I benefitted enormously from working together with Claudia in the context of a significant change of our organization during which I was promoted one level up and had to find the ”super leader” within myself to be able to lead the department through the changes we were facing.
I have now succeeded in getting all of us – myself included – safe and sound through the changes, with ownership and energy intact. I got the managers involved and truly engaged in the change initiatives we decided to implement and even the most critical managers have understood that our decisions were right. This has given them overview and more energy in their daily work. Some of them look like new leaders, indeed…!
We now have even more engaged and dedicated employees and managers. The benefits are measurable, for instance, we see in our Mystery reports that managers have taken more time to train and motivate employees.
My dialogue with Claudia was open and honest, she knows what this is about and I was able to be 100 % myself throughout the entire program.”
Charlotte Baisgaard Mogensen, Section Manager, F&B, Tivoli A/S
Claudia quickly creates a comfortable and trusting atmosphere which makes the coaching process very easy. She has a great deal of practical experience working in big corporations and was able to share relevant and practical insights into the professional challenges I was experiencing. I had no experience of coaching before I started working with Claudia but consider it to be a great business investment
Peder Bjellekjaer, Area Manager Nordics, PPG Coatings Danmark A/S
”She’s a ninja! – she sees everything, reacts immediately, and supports me in implementing changes in a deeply result-oriented way, while helping me feel confident about it.” This is how a store manager described his cooperation with Claudia.
Claudia’s messages come across clearly, they resonate, and inspire deeper reflection!
This is how I’ve experienced Claudia in different contexts – as a business coach, as a facilitator of High Performance networks, as a trainer, and as a speaker.
Simply put, I experience Claudia as an elegant and effective change maker who has deep knowledge of her subjects; she manages to be totally present to what’s happening in the moment, and seemingly simply comes up with even better and bigger gears to unleash potential and accelerate change.”
– Rune Rehlund, Retail Sales Manager
“My sessions with Claudia over the last 4 years have not only been a help for me to become more efficient in my daily work but have also been energizing breaks in a busy schedule, where I can discuss both professional and personal challenges and issues on “neutral” ground.
Claudia has been a fantastic help for me to structure my time management and an inspiration to improve my meeting management making my team meetings more efficient and constructive. This structure has furthermore helped me prioritizing my work tasks and becoming more efficient in my daily work.
I see my sessions with Claudia as “Inspiration Breaks”, a break from the daily routines where I can take a more objective and holistic view on my management challenges. As Claudia’s advice always are based on a good balance between theory and practice, it is easy to implement which has be very valuable to me.
The support and inspiration from Claudia has been, and continues to be, an important factor for me to develop as a manager and leader”.
Peder Bjellekjaer, Area Manager Nordics, PPG Coatings Danmark A/S
”Claudia is an empathetic and open-minded person with whom you easily and immediately experience trust, which is so important for getting real value out of coaching.

“I realized early on that working with Claudia was going to be a great experience. I worked with Claudia in her role as Network Director with a number of groups and found her to be very professional. Claudia thoroughly researched, planned and facilitated a large number of networking events. Her experience means that she is equally comfortable in a one-to-one coaching session as she is facilitating big groups. She understands how to engage, connect, and inspire conversation – about professional issues as well as deeper, more personal issues”.
Leon Voss, Head of Member Experience and Product Development, F5 Networking
