"I have had several very enjoyable meetings with Rutger during which he was able to distil the 'haze' of my thoughts into several main themes, without losing sight of the nuances! As typically occurs more frequently in personal interactions, the initial question was ultimately only a part of or a way of expressing what was really going on. Being able to make someone truly aware of this is evidence of a person's natural ability to sympathize and remain professional. One important aspect of Rutger's approach is that he immediately turns theory into concrete action, even if this is only to test the thoughts that have been discussed. This coaching program is a very effective way of making progress; Rutger is very good at opening people's minds to change."

"My reason to approach Rutger was to determine how I could best structure the change processes that would be necessary in my company over the coming years. The primary focus was on my own future role in the company, and recruiting new personnel. Rutger was able to get to the heart of the matter quickly, and made sure that after a few meetings, we had a format that we could use in the company. He is engaged, creates an atmosphere of trust quickly, and is creative. He continues to ask questions at the right times, forcing me to step out of my normal patterns and solutions. We agreed that we will insert short coaching projects during the upcoming implementation phase."

"On the Friday afternoon of the Art-Ist event, I was amazed at how Rutger was able to highlight the individual points about each person within a group context, and to bring these to the surface. This caused me to start thinking more about the best way for me to clearly communicate my services to people, without allowing my enthusiasm to distract me."

"Over the past few months, Rutger helped me to find a better balance between my professional and private life. By asking me the right questions, he has helped me to be more focused in thinking about how I handle the aspects of my day-to-day life. Mostly, Rutger gave me the insight I needed to view the situation from a different angle. He also taught me to convert my ideas into solid actions. Don't just think about it, do it! This really helped motivate me personally to achieve even more of my goals. Rutger is a really great coach, with a sense of humor and a great deal of compassion; he managed to help me gain a more positive image of myself."
