Actions

As an inclusive Workplace Wellness Advocate, I advise managers on how to keep their team members engaged, energized, and safe in a sustainable, manner.

A clearly defined Workplace Wellness strategy & implementation program fixes your hidden revenue losses along with missed opportunity revenues. It achieves this by improving talent retention, engagement, employer branding, and connection with diverse talent. It prevents your company from leaving money on the table. It also makes your organization a better place to work and be a part of.

Working with me means working towards sustainable employability in a holistic way: all elements of wellness and wellbeing are interconnected, including physical, mental, career, social, community, and financial wellness. I also purposefully incorporate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

What I do is make topics related to workplace wellness & DEI accessible to everyone. I provide people with the right tools at the right time to embrace inclusive changes. I encourage people to think consciously and inspire them to take action.

My services (in English + Dutch):
✪ Delivering keynotes + training and workshops on: mental + psychological wellbeing, career wellbeing, work + health (stress and burnout), financial wellbeing, diversity + inclusion
✪ Performing workplace audits (Workplace Wellness & DEI) to uncover existing stress points and identify workplace wins
✪ Determining strategy + developing programs: consulting on and strategizing the best steps to improve your organization’s Workplace Wellness - and then putting them into action

Give me a call when you're looking for:
✪ Uncommon Team Building sessions
✪ Stress Reduction in the workplace
✪ An inspiring keynote speaker

I also give the workshops, keynotes and training online.

Amplify Diversity Through Mentoring

Stop losing talent and leaving money on the table!

Diversity mentorship programs can empower a wide range of employees to share their experiences, ideas, knowledge, and opinions for equal opportunities. Through diversity initiatives, employees can learn cultural awareness to create an inclusive company culture.

Diversity mentorship programs create an environment of trust, belonging, understanding, encouragement, and support for diverse employees. It allows employees to voice their challenges, overcome obstacles, and find solutions.

This will result in inspiring employees to perform to infinity and beyond.

Unlocking Empathy With VR

According to Harvard Business Review, traditional Unconscious Bias training does not translate to the profound behavioral change you might expect.

In fact, only 10% of training programs gave attendees strategies for reducing bias.

In comparison to traditional methods, VR can also help people understand DEI concepts effectively.

Being able to live and feel someone else’s experience through their lens provides behavioral and cognitive learning, which is more effective in retention and that increases pro-social behaviors such as compassion and empathy more than both classroom and online learning.

VR training can help people experience the biases and behaviors that impact underrepresented populations and slowly dismantle the bias as empathy builds.
