A talk with international Coach, Trainer and Consultant Karen Nanninga

041: Karen Nanninga is an expe­ri­en­ced trai­ner and con­sul­tant in the field of manage­ment sup­port, as well as a busi­ness and life coach for pro­fes­sio­nals. She is pas­sio­na­te about accom­pany­ing peop­le on their per­so­nal deve­lop­ment paths: when deli­ver­ing trai­ning to a group or when coa­ching indi­vi­du­als. Her objec­tive is always to deve­lop and mobi­li­ze per­so­nal poten­ti­al and inner wis­dom, to encou­ra­ge peop­le to take steps, to empower them to set and reach goals, to inspi­re them to live the life they want. She stron­gly belie­ves that each indi­vi­dual can make a dif­fe­ren­ce in his/her own envi­ron­ment, no mat­ter what posi­ti­on (s)he holds. Each person’s role goes bey­ond his/her job descrip­ti­on, as we all bring uni­que per­so­nal com­pe­ten­ce, talents and inte­rests to the work­pla­ce. Leadership is her moti­va­ti­on and mes­sa­ge in all her pro­fes­sio­nal are­as and activi­ties. Karen and her company KN manage­ment sup­port stands for many years of expe­ri­en­ce in the area of manage­ment sup­port, with tailor-made trai­ning and semi­nars, com­pe­tent advice, goal-oriented coa­ching for pro­fes­sio­nals and a broad varie­ty of assi­gn­ments for the manage­ment assis­tant pro­fes­si­on. To deve­lop, to be open to new things, to grow, and that life-long: That’s what Karen wants to inspi­re peop­le to do. Optimizing one’s per­so­nal poten­ti­al is the­re­fo­re her grea­test con­cern as a trai­ner, lec­turer and coach, becau­se pro­fes­sio­nal and per­so­nal deve­lop­ment go hand in hand.

Enjoy this talk, everybody, and get to know the wonderful Karen. Diana xoxo
