Do you recognize yourself in this?
These are issues that (almost) everyone encounters at some point in their career. You get all kinds of ideas or sometimes conflicting advice from the people around you. Or, you do apply, but this is really nothing more than shooting with hail. So, where and how?

Martin is a fantastic personal coach for transitioning. He excels at combining and varying coaching philosophies and techniques, finding what suits you and your situation. I rediscovered my passion and personal leadership as a director.
"Martin Thoolen is a great coach, with a clear approach and plenty of room for genuine deepening. The book "Spirites Personal Leadership" has given me valuable tools for further personal development, I write with a big smile! Thanks, Martin".
Martin has reconnected my head, heart and soul. This automatically resulted in me rediscovering my own strength. I also learned to handle (emotional) manipulation, confrontation and overcome my fears. I am extremely grateful to Martin for rediscovering myself and would like everyone to have this experience. In short: I highly recommend Martin's coaching!!!
I can recommend it to absolutely everyone. I felt more comfortable from the first session. The coaches' years of experience with peace, friendliness, wisdom and integrity is a great positive point.
"Martin gives me advice on my career and life. He inspires me and gives clarity face-to-face, by audio and video call".
Martin is a true and intellectual professional, who is an expert in guiding people to approach business content with authenticity. This transformation allows them to come in their own strength, resulting in an increase of confidence and a successful performance.
"I have experienced Martin as a sincere and expert coach who knows how to make crystal clear analyses that are useful to P&O consultants - clear, development-focused and realistic. He is also pleasant in conversation and has a passion for his work".
With my more than thirty years of experience, I (re)recognize the opportunities and the pitfalls in career change in practice.
In addition, through my many years of trainer experience, I master proven theoretical models and exercises. As a result, you will return to work in a whistling manner and that you will have a position in which you feel good and in which your qualities emerge optimally.
I help you clarify what you really want in your career and that you see what is required of you now to move forward.
In addition to these opportunities that I can offer you, you increase the chance of having more fun and energy in your job if you go out on your own. I encourage you to get started with the insights gained and to keep working with exercises and practical assignments. You are pointed out the possibilities and impossibilities and you learn to see how you can become a co-architect of your own career again.

There is no question of a standard trajectory for me, just as no use is made of only models. Customization is provided, tailored to your reality. This is because everyone is unique and therefore different. If you opt for career coaching with me, the chance that you will find a nice and suitable job is simply a lot greater.
Each coaching session normally lasts 1.5 hours. This allows us to really go deep and tackle your issues at the core. The number of sessions for the majority of issues is often 3, and a maximum of 6.
The first three coaching sessions follow each other in rapid succession (every week or two weeks), so that you really make progress with what you have been given. After a verbal interim evaluation, we examine whether the desired development has come about. If we continue the process you will act increasingly on the basis of your own strength. The remaining sessions will be every 2, 3 or 4 weeks. Then you always have a back-up to look forward to.
I use three methods of arranging the intake and coaching sessions:
Intake interviews are free of charge, regardless of whether they lead to further coaching. Average amount of sessions; 6 till 8 of 1,5 hours. The number of sessions is dependent on the number of questions and the rate of development. Below you can see the current costs per coaching session.
The price for a Coaching session, paid by companies of 1.5 hours is € 275,= and of 1 hour € 200,= excl. 21% VAT, when requested by an organisation. If you have to pay for this from your own business as a freelancer (and not by the organisation), you will receive a 15% discount. A discount of 15% also applies to NGO’s. If you pay for it entirely out of your own private pocket, the rate is € 175,= for 1.5 hours (incl. 21% VAT) and for 1 hour € 125,= (incl. 21% VAT).
For additional consultation with your manager, HRM employee, company doctor or employer, the time will be charged in accordance with the above rates.
