There are no costs associated with an initial online discovery call, regardless of whether it leads to a coaching program. The average number of sessions is 4 to 8, each lasting 1.5 hours. The number of sessions depends on the number of questions and the level of development achieved during the coaching program. It is also possible to schedule a single coaching session at a time.
During the process we work at 3 levels, namely: 1) behaviour and skills, 2) personality/ego and 3) soul/spiritual experiences. Why? Because only working on behaviour and skills will not enable you to deal with your own foundation, which means that old (work) behaviour can reoccur easily.
We map out your behaviour and choices using your practical situations and feedback from me, in my capacity as coach, and others. And the effect they have on you and your surroundings. Theoretical models and accompanying hand-outs give you more insight into your behaviour and the alternatives that are much more productive. I can also coach you in communication or management skills that support your learning goals. My extensive experience enables me to help you with practical perspectives and exercises in the fields of coaching, conflict management, negotiations and enhancing your personal profile.
You can mow the grass (‘behaviour’), but if you don’t deal with the roots it will just come back. This is why my coaching increases your awareness of the origin and effect of your personality on your learning goals. I use the Psychology of Selves and Voice Dialogue, a method I was trained in by the founders Hal & Sidra Stone. This leads you to new self-generated choices that fundamentally stimulate and support your development.
Some experiences can deeply affect you. Think of conflicts or lawsuits that don't do you justice, being sidelined by the Supervisory Board, the loss of tasks, authority, or responsibilities, or even the loss of your position or job. Or other personal experiences in your private life that influence your attitude, behavior and choices at work. In those cases, it's important to carefully examine these and see how you can approach them differently from now on
Sometimes you want more peace of mind, and I can support you with various short theoretical insights and exercises. Moreover, I can help you rediscover passion and meaning in what inspires you and put it into practice. You'll immediately experience renewed energy and vitality.
The Discovery meeting will be online. The coaching sessions themselves will generally also take place online.
You can, of course, also schedule in-person appointments if I'm in your area or in the Netherlands. However, I do charge a 30% premium over the current rates for these appointments. This is due to the additional logistics and travel time (often an average of two 1-hour extra travel times; fuel and maintenance costs, and room rental for coaching sessions).
I provide coaching in three ways:
I also provide Team Coaching for Executive Boards, and Management Teams, optimizing collaboration and leading to greater organizational success. For more information, see: here.

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?
Met mijn ruim dertig jaar ervaring ken ik naast allerlei theoretische modellen en oefeningen, de kansen en de valkuilen bij loopbaanverandering in de praktijk. Het resultaat? Dat je vooral weer fluitend naar jouw werk gaat en dat jij een functie hebt waarin jij je goed voelt en waarbinnen jouw kwaliteiten optimaal naar voren komen.
Omdat je dan duidelijk kunt krijgen wat jij in je loopbaan nou eigenlijk écht wilt en dat je ziet wat er nú van je gevraagd wordt om vooruit te gaan.
Om er voor te zorgen dat je fundamenteel een goede keuze maakt bij jouw loopbaanontwikkeling zijn een aantal vragen van belang. Wie ben ik? Wat kan ik en wat wil ik eigenlijk precies? Wat durf ik, en wat niet? Het zijn essentiële vragen die onder andere een concrete visie opleveren over jouw toekomstige baan of functie. Een optimale baan komt als je iets vindt wat je kan, wat je wilt en durft. En als je je baan dreigt te verliezen of verloren hebt, is het belangrijk om dat verlies eerst altijd een plaats te geven. Zodat je met positieve energie verder de toekomst ingaat.
Wat kun je verwachten bij loopbaancoaching bij mij?
• (Toekomstig) baanverlies een plek geven, indien van toepassing
• Positieve energie genereren voor nieuwe ideeën
• Meer zicht ontwikkelen op: wie ben ik, wat kan ik, wat wil ik, wat durf ik?
• Een individuele professionele visie ontwikkelen op je toekomstige loopbaan
• Ontwikkelen van diverse loopbaan-scenario’s
• Een strategische kalender ontwikkelen en/of acties ondernemen
• Strategische keuzes maken om de kans te vergroten in het realiseren van je nieuwe functie
• Praktische ondersteuning bij brief, CV en sollicitaties, indien van toepassing
• Zicht vergroten op eigen kansen en valkuilen bij het zoeken en vinden van ander werk
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.
‘Je moet het werk vieren, maar dan moet je daar zelf wel de slingers voor ophangen’.
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.
Er zijn geen kosten verbonden aan een eerste online verkenningsgesprek ongeacht of daar een coachingstraject uit voortkomt of niet. Gemiddeld aantal sessies is: 4 tot 8 van 1,5 uur. Hierdoor kunnen we ook echt de diepte ingaan en je vragen bij de kern aanpakken. Het aantal sessies is mede afhankelijk van het aantal vragen en de mate van ontwikkeling tijdens het coachingstraject.
If both parties feel comfortable working together, I will prepare a quote outlining your objectives, the terms and conditions, and the costs we discussed verbally at the end of the meeting.
De eerste drie coachings volgen elkaar snel op (elke week of om de week), zodat je echt merkbare stappen in je loopbaanontwikkeling maakt van wat je aangereikt wordt. Na een mondelinge tussentijdse evaluatie kijken we of er daadwerkelijke een gewenste ontwikkeling is. Als we het traject voortzetten ga je steeds meer op eigen kracht verder en zijn de overige coachings om de 2, 3 of 4 weken. Dan heb je altijd een backup in de tijd om naar uit te kijken.
Om vrijblijvend te kijken of ik je echt van dienst kan zijn, kun je een gratis online verkenningsgesprek aanvragen. Daarbij maken we kennis met elkaar om te kijken of er een klik is. Er is alle ruimte voor je om je verhaal te doen en de aanleiding voor jouw loopbaancoaching toe te lichten. Ik help je om concrete doelstellingen af te spreken aan de hand waarvan we je ontwikkeling kunnen monitoren. Daarnaast geef ik concreet aan hoe ik je met inzichten, oefeningen en opdrachten je daadwerkelijk verder kan brengen. Zo weet je waar je aan toe bent als je met mij een coachingstraject instapt.
Als er van beiden een goed gevoel is om met elkaar in zee te gaan, stel ik een offerte op waarin jouw doelstellingen, de voorwaarden en kosten verwoord staan die we aan het eind van gesprek overlegd hebben.
The Discovery meeting will be online. The coaching sessions themselves will generally also take place online.

I use three methods of arranging the intake and coaching sessions:
Coachhouse
Bij face-to-face coachings in het Coachhuis vlakbij Station CS in Den Haag, Alphen aan den Rijn en Alkmaar, Amsterdam (vlakbij Olympisch Stadion) en Utrecht (afhankelijk wat vrij is). Uiteraard word je vooraf geïnformeerd waar dat is.
On site
In the Hague, Amsterdam or Utrecht I come to your room if you can reserve a suitable coaching room there.

As an internationally experienced and expert business and life coach, you have come to the right place with these questions. Simply because of my extensive experience and proven results with an average score of 9 on evaluations of international training and coaching in the field of personal development, leadership and professional effectiveness. In addition, I have made many trips and visited many cultures over the past 30 years, which means that I can empathize with the differences you will encounter. I give you in-depth insights and practical 'tools' that you can apply immediately and see results quickly.
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 to 6 (maximum of 8).
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.
During the process we work at 3 levels, namely: 1) behaviour and skills, 2) personality/ego and 3) soul/spiritual experiences. Why? Because only working on behaviour and skills will not enable you to deal with your own foundation, which means that old (work) behaviour can reoccur easily.

I use the Psychology of Selves and Voice Dialogue, a method I was trained in by the founders Hal & Sidra Stone. This leads you to new self-generated choices that fundamentally stimulate and support your development.
Sometimes you are asked to write a short and focused autobiography to better map your ego patterns.
Some experiences can touch your soul deeply. For example, failure to achieve the promised promotion, demotion, loss of tasks, authorities or responsibilities, or even losing your job. There may be other personal experiences in your private life that affect your attitude at work. Then it is essential to examine these events carefully and determine how you can handle them differently in future. Sometimes you want more tranquillity in your soul, and I can support you in this with exercises, including visualisation and mindfulness. Moreover, you can rediscover your passion and the meaning of what inspires you. A sequence of insights and exercises enables you to build a personal and professional vision for yourself. This gives you a compass to redirect your work and career.
The Discovery meeting will be online. The coaching sessions themselves will generally also take place online.
You can, of course, also schedule in-person appointments if I'm in your area or in the Netherlands. However, I do charge a 30% premium over the current rates for these appointments.

Totdat je doodmoe bent of het licht uitgaat en je ’even’ overspannen of met burn out klachten huis komt te zitten. Duurzame inzetbaarheid en vitaliteit vragen in deze tijd van verhoogde werkdruk steeds meer aandacht, want ziekteverzuim is een ‘energydrain’ voor jou en je organisatie die klauwen geld en plezier kost. Dus hoe mooi is het als je je geestelijk vitaal maakt en bovenal houdt!
Met mijn ruim dertig jaar ervaring ken ik naast allerlei theoretische modellen en oefeningen, de kansen en de valkuilen bij overspannenheid, burnout, vitaliteit en duurzame inzetbaarheid in de praktijk. Het resultaat? Dat je vooral weer fluitend naar jouw werk gaat en duurzaam inzetbaar blijft.
Je persoonlijk veerkracht wordt beïnvloedt door werk- én privéomstandigheden en is nooit exact hetzelfde. Dus beiden verdienen de nodige aandacht aan bewustwording. Verder vraagt het van je dat je glashard en oprecht je stress-signalen leert herkennen, erkennen en optimaal weet te gaan hanteren. Die heilzame route vraagt dat je eerlijk naar jezelf gaat kijken, naar zowel je kracht als kwetsbaarheid. Ik bied je daarvoor veiligheid en inzichten.
Naast jouw eigen gedragskeuzes krijg je inzichten en tools om de balans in jezelf te verbeteren. Niet alleen door tips en trucs zozeer, als wel dat door nieuwe besturing van de ‘aard van het beeste’ (je ego). Want je kan wel gedrag veranderen, net als dat je onkruid wiet, maar als je het niet bij de wortel aanpakt komt het terug.
Zo geef ik inzichten en tips over stress- en timemanagement waar ik jarenlange trainers-ervaring mee heb. Echter, dat kan makkelijk ontoereikend blijken, als je onbewust blijft van de kracht van je ego en bezieling die het voeden. Uit mijn ervaring blijkt dat de meeste mensen die burn out raken, een sterke ego-identificatie kennen met hun innerlijk pleaser, pusher en/of perfectionist. Als je die niet in balans brengt, kun je makkelijk een tweede keer overspannen raken. En da’s niet altijd makkelijk te voorkomen, zeker als je ego soms hardnekkig op jacht is naar blijvende erkenning of goedkeuring van buiten, totdat je lichaam je lam legt.
‘Wie niet horen wil, moet voelen’
Bovendien is je basisenergie niet op peil als je iets structureel doet waar je niet bezield over bent. In dat geval wordt ook gekeken naar hoe je dát kunt herstellen.
Because my approach is very practical on the one hand, but also in-depth as a clinical and organizational psychologist, the effects are more fundamental and you remain more vital and sustainable for longer.
Wat kun je verwachten bij vitaliteitscoaching bij mij?
• Herkennen, erkennen van en omgaan met stress-signalen
• Erkennen van signalen door bewustwording van eigen ego-defensiemechanismen
• Praktisch omgaan met negatieve (werk)druk
• Timemanagement-tools
• Stressmanagement-tools
• Grenzen stellen en bewaken
• Mindfulness praktiseren
• Zicht krijgen op de werking van je egobus en welke kanten negatieve stress veroorzaken
• Het zelf effectiever managen van je pleaser, perfectionist en pusher
• De voedingsbron van je egopassagiers verhelderen
• Je bezieling herijken
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 energy balance 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 vitality coaching with me, there is a fair chance that you will continue to work with pleasure and energy.
If both parties feel comfortable working together, we'll discuss a suitable proposal for the number of coaching sessions and the associated current costs. If desired, I'll prepare a quote outlining your objectives, terms, and current costs that we discussed verbally at the end of the meeting. A vitality coaching program typically consists of 4 to 8 sessions, each lasting 1.5 hours. This allows us to delve deeper and address your core issues. verbally at the end of the meeting.
The first four 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.

Team coaching sessions that I organise can be for 2 to 60 participants. For departments, management teams, Board teams, project teams, or starting teams.
My vision is that team-building programs are most effective when all team members are involved and motivated to take action. A common pitfall is that team members are primarily exposed to theoretical knowledge and models without having to truly commit themselves. In my experience, team coaching works when there are multiple moments throughout the team's journey where they consciously examine their own attitudes and behavior, both externally and during their work.
The demands and complexity of a team sometimes require a different approach, such as with Supervisory Boards, Executive Boards and Management Teams. In these cases, exploratory conversations are held to map out the history, current situation, and desired situation, identify objectives, and then offer a customized program.
In regular team applications, the four-phase approach below often proves effective. After each phase, it is assessed whether it makes sense to continue the process.
Interviews are conducted with relevant managers and several team members in order to get the best possible impression of existing wishes and potential obstructions. During the interviews we list which areas need extra attention in the team coaching sessions according to the Team Empowerment model™ (Thoolen). The interviews are face-to-face and last approximately 60 minutes. The information obtained in the preparation phase is also input for the creation of a phased plan for the kick-off meeting and a programme and exercises for one or more team coaching sessions. Naturally, all interviews are confidential.
During the interviews we list which areas need extra attention in the team coaching sessions according to the Team Empowerment model™ (Thoolen). The interviews are face-to-face and last approximately 60 minutes. The information obtained in the preparation phase is also input for the creation of a phased plan for the kick-off meeting and a programme and exercises for one or more team coaching sessions. Naturally, all interviews are confidential.

To get to know more about the context and history of the team we would like, if possible, to receive written material If available, such as the year plan with a detailed vision and strategy, the previously formulated rules of behaviour, the current/desired job profiles, information on consultation structures, possibly an organisation chart and other useful documents.
A kick-off meeting is then held that is attended by all team members. The findings of the inventory phase are shared anonymously, and all team members are actively involved in the discussion on what is desirable in order to achieve the goals of this process. This means that beside a short presentation, team members are (inter)actively put to work to see what they think is necessary for this, which activates personal responsibility and creates a base of support for the rest of the process.
The results of the kick-off meeting are used to first examine whether it is really useful to continue this process. If not, a recommendation is made on what is needed to achieve the goals. If the answer is positive, the results provide (on the basis of the Team Empowerment Model) input for a programme to be decided later that is sent prior to the team coaching sessions.
Team sessions are often one or half a day, increasing the likelihood that all team members will actually be present and allowing regular work to proceed smoothly. Moreover, you can better monitor actual team development with multiple team coaching days over time.
During on-the-job team coaching sessions one or more coaches are present during normal meetings, in which time-outs are used to feed observations and suggestions back to the participants. The progress of the collective and individual agreements that were made earlier during the external team coaching sessions is also examined in the interim.
To increase the chance of a successful process we ask the manager (and several team members if desired) to provide interim input on actual developments in the workplace. The content of the external team coaching sessions is determined on the basis of the inventory phase, the kick-off meeting and the interim evaluation in on-the-job team coaching sessions. Where extra attention will be devoted in the programming and exercises is partly determined on the basis of the Team Empowerment Model created by Thoolen.
It is very possible that some team members, including the manager, may have some individual coaching sessions if this actually increases the likelihood of achieving the goals. This will be based on the inventory phase or kick-off meeting or be prompted during the team coaching process. These individual coaching sessions will, in principle, only be provided by Martin Thoolen as senior coach, and will therefore be available during the team coaching process.
A final meeting is held in which the entire team process and the individual contributions of all team members are evaluated. At the end, a written evaluation is returned to the principal as a free-of-charge anonymous report that functions as quality assurance for the complete team process. There are also discussions on how all team members, including the manager, can best further encourage and secure the positive development, what the pitfalls are and how to handle them.
During the supervision phase the focus will be on the practical situations, coaching and team questions. We often use different perspectives and methods with which we have years of professional experience and expertise as support:
Naturally, the choice of methodology is harmonised with the issue and the wishes of the prfincipal. Between the in-companytrainins sessions we ask all participants to execute several assignments to enhance the transfer to daily practice.
Depending on the client's wishes and budget, we identify a suitable solution, which is then presented in a quote with accompanying objectives, conditions, and costs for the entire team process.
As a Team Coach, I have extensive experience As a team coach, I have extensive experience in the supervision of teams and groups. For example, I gave courses in Group Dynamics at Utrecht University for 4 years. I also organised different indoor and outdoor team building courses for various organisations for 8 years at Boertien&Partners and 20 years at Circumference. I include several client reviews below. For groups larger than 10 team members I often call in an experienced co-trainer from my network. It is also possible to cooperate with co-trainers in the organisation.

During a a half or one-day seminar of two to four hours you will gain new insights and exercises related to the required topics. My experience includes seminars in the areas of:
You will gain insights om how three forces in everyone will determine how they deal with these issues. You will also get interactive exercises so you can experience how tools can help you with this.
At the masterclasses recognisable examples from your work are used in 2 or 4-hour session to reveal how three deep-rooted strengths can help or hinder your life. Armed with this new knowledge you are ready to take new steps.
Response to an interactive workshop on Spirited Personal Leadership:
“Martin Thoolens Spirited Personal Leadership Masterclass was a valuable experience for us at GetForward. His ability to make beliefs concrete made the content immediately applicable, and the focus on team reflection promoted deeper understanding and collaboration. In short, highly recommended for those looking for tangible improvements in leadership.”

This way you gain insight into how three strengths determine everything in your work and life. All your behaviour and choices. The first strength is your ego, which you get to know better with the ego-bus based on the Psychology of Selves & Voice Dialogue by Hal & Sidra Stone, who trained me in the USA. You are given an explanation of how your ego was formed over the years and how you can use it now in a controlled and effective manner. The second strength is your soul. You learn to recognise when it is on the pilot light and how you can activate it to make your life more meaningful and passionate. The third strength is spirit or consciousness. A strength that can clearly see through your entire being, makes you self-aware and gives you new choices. More about this you can see here.
You will see how much these strengths determine your vitality, work/life balance, leadership, personal leadership/self-management, talent development teamspirit and transformation. Besides insights, you are given tips and techniques that enrich your life.

Resultaat na deze Mastercourse is dat je:
Why spirited?
Waarom die toevoeging ‘inspirerend’ (in het Engels: ’spirited’)? Omdat je in deze module inhoudelijk letterlijk uitleg krijgt over wat ‘spirit’ omvat, waaronder universeel bewustzijn. En ook leer je hoe je dit praktisch en concreet toepast in je eigen dagelijkse werk. Want als je zinvol en vreedzaam met alle zakelijke relaties om je heen wilt werken, ben je er niet met ‘gewoon persoonlijk leiderschap’. Laat staan dat je dan bijdraagt aan een betere wereld.
Your behaviour is tackled at the roots for fundamental results
Al je gedragingen en keuzes komen voort uit drie universele krachten die in ieder van ons huizen, namelijk je ego, je ziel en bewustzijn (spirit). De meeste trainingen over persoonlijk leiderschap definiëren dit begrip als het verkrijgen van meer regie over eigen werk en leven. ‘Persoonlijk Inspirerend Leiderschap’ zoals hier omschreven zorgt hier óók voor, maar biedt je meer. Het laat zien hoe je enerzijds fundamenteel meer grip op je leven en werk krijgt, niet zozeer door tips en trucs, maar door management en dosering van je ego. Wanneer je de wortels van je gedrag aanpakt, zijn de effecten langduriger dan wanneer je voornamelijk alleen tips en trucs ontvangt. Daarnaast activeert Persoonlijk Inspirerend Leiderschap je ziel, waardoor je meer vitaliteit, enthousiasme en zingeving ervaart. En er is nog meer wat dit type leiderschap jezelf biedt: universeel bewustzijn dat leidt tot een beter, waarachtig en vreedzaam leven en werk. Bovendien raak je zelf niet alleen geïnspireerd, maar inspireer je ook je directe omgeving met je nieuwe gedrag en keuzes. Vandaar: Persoonlijk Inspirerend Leiderschap.
De hele Mastercourse bestaat uit drie modules in groepsverband én drie individuele coachings. Deze combinatie heeft in het verleden gouden ogen gegooid bij vele andere deelnemers.
Three group modules
This Mastercourse consists of 3 times 2 days with an evening program. Experience has shown that these in-depth modules lead to more effect if you are away from home for 2 days with an evening (overnight stay).
Drie Individuele Coachings na elke groepsmodule
After each module you have individual coaching of 1.5 hours to optimize the development of what you have learned in practice. However, there is first an intake interview with one of the trainers.
Intake
Prior to this there is an intake interview to determine the individual learning goals on which you can monitor your development over time. Mutual expectations are discussed as well. You will also receive a specific autobiography assignment in preparation for the first of the three modules.
Module 1 – Ego-management
In this first module you will first see what ego actually means and how it influences your work behavior and choices. You find out when you're selling yourself short by displaying too little ego. But you also see what happens when your ego is structurally out of control. You will find out what undesirable, ineffective or sometimes destructive consequences this has. You also learn how to recognize this and how to adjust it yourself: through ego-management. You will be enriched with the model of the inner 'Ego-bus' and how to manage this yourself using Voice Dialogue (from the theory of the 'Psychology of Selves').
Individuele Coaching 1
Module 2 – Bezieling activeren en doseren
In the second module you will encounter the pitfalls of too little, but also of too much inspiration! You learn to recognize faster when you have too little or too much of it, but also when the dose of inspiration is right so that you can achieve optimal growth. You will be given five paths that help you to experience more meaning, passion, perseverance and pleasure: by showing color, increasing your independence, healing your soul pain, activating your soul joy, using your original talents and bringing your dreams to life to bring.
Individuele Coaching 2
Module 3 – Spirit verrijking (bewustzijn)
In this last module you will see how you will experience more peace and connection and in your work in all your business relationships. With your customers, your clients, your colleagues, your managers and your shareholders. Really everyone around you. You will receive insights and exercises that help you realize this, namely by taking one or more of ten possible 'actions'. Examples of this are the practice of 'heartfulness', the experience and use of synchronicity and the admission of intuition and hunches. You will also see how you can increase your contribution to a better world, no matter how small or large. Part of this is that you make and test an individual professional vision from inspiration and spirit, instead of ego. You will also see what your pitfalls are to actually realize this and who or what you can support in this process.
Individuele Coaching 3
'It's not about the institute but the facilitator what provides quality'
Topkwaliteit van trainingen wordt niet zozeer bepaald door het instituut, maar voornamelijk door de rijke professionele ervaring en deskundigheid met bewezen resultaat van de trainers in kwestie. Met deze Master Module ben je daarvan verzekerd. Ik kijk er daarom naar uit om deze unieke Mastercourse samen met Jhr. Bert-Jan van der Mieden te verzorgen, die zijn sporen verdiend heeft (zie ook: https://www.pyramide.nl/#over-pyramide).).
De kosten voor deelname zijn €. 5.500 excl. 21% BTW per persoon. Bij deelname ontvang je een gratis exemplaar van het luxe hardcopy-boek met ruim 300 bladzijden met inspiratie: ‘Persoonlijk Inspirerend Leiderschap’. Voor NGO’s geldt een korting van 15% op de deelnamekosten.

Why is this Mastercourse being developed?
Martin Thoolen: “How the world has become is close to my heart. My desire to experience a better world together has always been a lasting torch in my life. How is it possible that we wage wars, small and large? At work with our colleagues, customers or suppliers, privately with our neighbours, family or partner? Or with each other as nations? What actually drives every person? And if we know that, how can we make things more beautiful together at work and in our private life? Since childhood I have been interested in what all of us actually drives: individually, collectively and then both in the present and throughout the years of history. What is it beyond behavior that actually defines all our behavior and choices? Imagine finding out, or maybe even get to know a reason for existence! And how nice it is to receive pointers that actually contribute to a better world! All this and more can be found in this Master Module. However, something has happened before that.
What have been the resources of my research?
Thirty years ago I have been discovering as a mental explorer op zoek gegaan naar wat ons werkelijk drijft. Daarvoor was ik als tiener al bezig met astrologie en ook koos ik op de middelbare school drie jaar lang filosofie als bijvak. Ik ben vervolgens verder gaan graven en heb in 1990 mijn master in de klinische en organisatiepsychologie gehaald. Daarnaast heb ik me verdiept in de metafysica en aan de universiteit van Utrecht als bijvak parapsychologie gestudeerd.
However, the various existing psychological schools, including behavioral psychology and models, are not enough. When it comes to answering life questions and guiding questions from my clients and clients, the current psychology appears to have limits, which means that you cannot achieve an optimal result. So I continued the search and looked into what else drives us. Because what about the age-old wisdom and healing methods of the various indigenous peoples on the earth? What is it that all religions have in common, and how does that influence our behavior? Why is there war, and why peace?
Life, and therefore abroad, beckoned me with these and many other questions. I went out looking for answers in literature, but also at conferences and podcasts about leadership, psychology, philosophy, religions, physics, metaphysics and spirituality. I have followed dozens of national and international conferences, workshops and courses in the field of personality development, mindfulness, spirituality, non-dualism and more. These were provided by drs. Hal & Sidra Stone, dr. Deepak Chopra, Eckhart Tolle, Almaas, Jadthen Jewall, dr. Olga Kharitidi, Jeff Foster and Gangaji, to name but a few.
Doordat ik de afgelopen dertig jaar zowel in mijn persoonlijk leven als professioneel dagelijks met deze levensvragen bezig ben geweest, ontving ik veel nieuwe inzichten. Daaronder waren professionele ervaringen met duizenden klanten/opdrachtgevers en leiders in het bedrijfsleven, bij rijks-, provinciale en gemeentelijke overheden, in de zorg, het onderwijs, de wetenschap en vele andere branches. Ook heb ik veel geleerd door het ontwikkelen en uitvoeren, acht jaar lang, van weekretraites ‘Inner Nature’ in het buitenland, van meer dan dertig open leergangen ‘Personal Empowerment’, van de training ‘Nieuw Perspectief’ voor de Rijksoverheid en van de opleiding van trainers hiervoor. Daarnaast heb ik internationale in-companytrainingen Persoonlijk Leiderschap (zelfmanagement) gegeven, alsmede duizenden professionele coachings en tientallen teambuildings verzorgd, en nog veel meer. Maar ook kreeg ik inzichten uit dromen en visioenen, die inspiratie gaven voor nieuwe inzichten in deze Master Course.
Ik ging echter ook letterlijk jarenlang ‘op pad in de wereld’ om tot nieuwe antwoorden te komen. De afgelopen decennia heb ik ook veel ervaringen en inzichten opgedaan tijdens mijn ontmoetingen met inheemse leiders, chiefs, genezers, spirituele leraren en de natuur over de hele wereld. Als je het leuk vindt, kun je hier in vogelvlucht in 2 minuten zien wat ik daarvoor zoal ontmoet heb: https://lnkd.in/eeyUD6AM
These contacts brought clarity to me about the natural heritage that many of us have forgotten, namely universal consciousness, often referred to as "spirit". That awareness fundamentally influences our existence, and therefore also our (work) behavior and choices. I see it as one of my tasks to bring all that knowledge and experience together into something that really matters and that you can use practically. And then both at work and in your private life, while it can also contribute to a better world. Universal knowledge is bundled in this book in a clear, well-arranged and at the same time profound and practically applicable way.
I sincerely hope that this Master Module inspires you to give your work a spin that will benefit you and the world around you.”

For Leaders, Directors, HR-managers/ professionals, HRM department staff, professionals and other managers who want the following for the people in their organisation:
In the last 30 years I have provided a multitude of in-company training courses and workshops for a wide range of companies. For example, I provided the Selfmanagement Training of the Middle Management Course (MMC) at DSM and Sabic for 7 years. In both Dutch and English for professionals/managers overseas, from the U.S. to China average evaluation score: 9,0)
And the in-company Personal Empowerment training course and Personal Leadership workshop for the Rabo Bank and Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment.
And the development and implementation of the New Perspective Transition Training for the government, dealing with effectively coping with (potential) redundancy and the training of internal career coaches for this purpose.
And the Work Pressure and Self-Management workshop for 30 Solicitor Generals and Secretaries in the jurisdictional region of The Public Prosecutor’s Office in the Hague. Naturally, references are available.
And my contributions to enhancing Service Excellence throughout whole the organisation, like with the Schuurman Group, a wholesale organisation in Electrical Engineering and Consumer electronics amongst other things. My contributions were mainly qualitive to increase base support in all of the organisation and gathering and sharing significant input and output for continuation over the Service Excellence Process by:
Depending on demand, these themes can be developed into a customised programme and implemented where your organisation needs it. I would be happy to visit you for an orientation interview. This and possibly a supplementary discussion will serve as the basis of my customised proposal. It will include the agreed goals, applied methods, programme and costs so that you know what you are getting. Quality assurance consists of a written evaluation at the end of each training course. We use this to generate an evaluation report that is sent to the principal for perusal.
I provided various in-company training courses for a wide range of organisations for 19 years at Circumference, for 10 years as a freelancer of Publiek Domein and for 8 years at Boertien & Partners. You can read about clients’ experiences with me up above.
I frequently hire in an experienced co-trainer from my network for groups larger than 6 participants. Cooperation with co-trainers from within the organisation is also an option.
Naturally, the choice of methodology is harmonised with the issue and the wishes of the principal. Between the in-companytraining sessions we ask all participants to execute several assignments to enhance the transfer to daily practice.
