"I strongly recommend this Quest to anyone in a consulting or advisory role"
After 26 years of overwhelming clients with technical advice, Anja discovered a coaching approach that transformed her consulting work. Now her clients think independently and take ownership, while she feels calmer and more impactful in both professional and personal relationships.
Before this Quest, I spent over 26 years advising thousands of businesses in their international development, particularly in the Middle East. My role as a public sector consultant requires me to work across all industries with limited time per client, which often means overwhelming them with strategies and technical advice. It is stressful, high-pressure, and exhausting.
This Quest was a turning point. In just a few months, I noticed that my clients began integrating the information better, thinking for themselves, and taking real ownership of their decisions. I, in turn, feel calmer, less pressured, and more impactful. The coaching approach has also helped me handle tricky professional situations with greater ease — and even improved how I support my loved ones.
I strongly recommend this Quest to anyone in a consulting or advisory role. It transforms the way you work with others, shifting from giving answers to creating growth — and in the process, it changes you too.
