Frau Christensen hat durch ihr fundiertes und durchdachtes Coaching massgeblich dazu beigetragen mein Berufsprofil zu schärfen. Ihr konstruktive und überzeugende Art hat mich perfekt durch diesen Transformationsprozess geführt.

Frau Christensen, war ein sehr guter Sparring Partner für meine Anliegen im Bewerbungsprozess. Es wurde auf meine individuellen Wünsche und Anregungen eingegangen. So konnte ich maximal von der Standortbestimmung und der Laufbahnberatung profitieren.

Frau Christensen ist eine sehr angenehme und empathische Person, bei der ich mich sehr gut aufgehoen gefühlt habe. Sie hat sowohl die Themen berücksichtigt, die vom RAV für das Coaching vorgegeben wurden und doch sehr passend auf meine Kenntnisse, meine Bedürfnisse und meine Situation zugeschnitten. Ihre grosse Erfahrung hat sie mir weitergegeben, so dass ich meine Bewerbungsunterlagen und -gespräche noch deutlich verfeinern kann.

Sandra has coached me in the last six months and it has been a wonderful, enriching experience. She supported me a lot to align my values to the work I am doing, to manage my time properly, to be able to say ‘no’ to things – and to become more confident. Sandra was an important source for all kinds of questions and contexts, she was always very well prepared for the sessions, and gave me a lot of strength and belief to continue my journey. Thank you so much, Sandra!

Sandra was my coach for six months as part of The Coaching Fellowship Programm. I really valued the journey Sandra took me on.

Sandra was very responsive to my needs. She struck an excellent balance between challenging me to set my own agenda, and keeping me focused on developing in key areas. I learnt some great tools to help me navigate my life as a whole.
Under Sandra’s guidance, I also learnt some key strategies to combat unhelpful habits that I hadn’t even picked up on before my coaching experience.
I deeply recommend working with Sandra, particularly if you are a driven individual – you may be surprised what you learn (and what you may have to un-learn!).

Sandra has been my constant source of inspiration in the last five months, as she and I embarked on a coaching relationship together. She is extremely professional, creative and empathetic to your needs, concerns and troubles. She came to every session with utmost preparation and always found a way to motivate me, push me to ask unasked questions and dig deeper into my personality. I wish her the best!

I was coached by Sandra over the course of 5 months in the context of a coaching program available via my organisation. It was a real pleasure to work with Sandra on various topics which have enabled me to gain clarity on my goals and the steps I need to take to reach them. Additionally, I am now better equipped to deal with my workload, tasks and responsibilities in a wiser and more balanced way.

Sandra is an exceptionally good listener. She came prepared to each session and using various tools such as visualisation exercises, she offered me a very interesting and refreshing perspective to challenges I faced. Thanks to Sandra, I was able to have an “aha” moment which has drastically improved my life, both at work and at home. Thank you Sandra for everything!

Meeting Sandra and working together was a pleasure! She is a very nice person, multilingual (German, English and Spanish), very flexible and always ready to hear you. She helped in the process of going back to work after a period at home with my family. I needed to know I was doing the right thing and she gave me the tools and the good way to know I was in the right direction. Her personality and being able to speak in Spanish helped a lot. I knew what I was asking was not a normal coaching, but she managed to understand me and build a nice plan to get what I was looking for. I will of course recommended her.

Sandra was an wonderful coach! She helped me push my boundaries, guided me in handling difficult situations, and made me realize that I can reach any goal I want by believing in myself. I feel I’ve become a more balanced and more confident person, and am better prepared for future challenges.
The coaching sessions were fun and interesting (I am still amazed by how much I learned about by self) and I was looking forward to every single one of them.
Thank you!

It has been a pleasure to work with Sandra as my coach for the past six months. She has been a source of guidance and a confidant, helping me to reach beyond my potential and meet goals I have set for myself. During my coaching I have worked with Sandra on improving my managerial/leadership skills and qualities as well as focusing on work/life balance and ensuring I focus on my personal development as well. Sandra has provided me with invaluable advice and tools such as relationship building and conflict management that I will take with me throughout my personal and professional life. I am grateful for the time, care and support Sandra has given me during my coaching.

May 2016, Coryell (Chief Operating Office at One Degree Solar, Kenya)

It is a pleasure – and an honor – to work with Sandra as my coach. I have been working with her for almost one year and she continues to give me the guidance, support, and confidence to improve as a leader and manager. Whether providing a new perspective, asking tough questions, or providing valuable insights, she pushes me to do better and be better. I have grown personally and professionally since I started working with Sandra – and I look forward to continuing to grow with Sandra as my coach!
