​

Their careers as Senior Managers in WHO and the United Nations mainly focussed on coaching and facilitating senior management, the development and implementation of strategy, planning, donor reporting, administration, human resources, management, finance and KPI reporting.  Much of their focus of the management role over the past two decades has been on restructuring and defining new and more effective strategies and structures.

 

Over their long careers it became evident to them that many everyday negative aspects of conflicts are reduced when individuals feel appreciated and healthy and are enabled to use their potential to add value for themselves, their team and their environment. Similarly, in a business context, that the daily challenge of management is facilitated though recognition and use of team members’ strengths, cultural potential and constant nurturing of emotional intelligence as well as leveraging the positive aspects of team conflict.

 

They are convinced of the positive impact of coaching for everyone, and are aware that many people think that only other people can have access to coaching. WJP Coaching Partners aims to lower these perceived barriers to coaching and make coaching, mentoring and supervision accessible for everyone.
