Open en Eerlijk Coaching (OEEC) provides customized coaching to achieve in-depth personal insight and structural change among employees. From a national network of certified coaches. Does an employee experience powerlessness and stress at work, in private or in relationships? Does this hinder the employee from functioning? Then support from a coach offers the opportunity to take concrete steps in this. This leads to an energetic, motivated and resilient employee.

With individual mental coaching, our coaches achieve structural change by going beyond the demand for help and focusing on underlying themes, core beliefs, frameworks and patterns.
