With our expertise in start-up and scale-up environments, we strengthen structure, culture, and leadership within your organization. This allows you to grow sustainably and effectively—on your terms. We also inspire established companies with a touch of “start-up dust” through workshops on innovation, creativity, collaboration, and leadership. Together, we build future-proof organizations.

Our organization scan provides you with a clear picture of where your internal organization stands today and where you want to go. We uncover hidden bottlenecks that hinder growth and efficiency and offer targeted advice and concrete action plans to address them.

“Safety and openness to embrace ”

“Ann, Tine, and Kim have guided quite a few individual in-house coaching programs. Their coaching programs are experienced by our employees as valuable time to dig deeper into themselves, their values, and beliefs, and where those come from. Captain & Stoker’s coaches are at the same time warm and straightforward. They create safety and openness to embrace the growth that is offered. Each time, they provide great methods, tips, and tricks. Above all, they offer support and encourage self-reflection that stays close to the coachee.”

‘A bunch of tools and tips for the future’

“The ‘New Manager Assimilation Program’ that Kim supervised with us, was a great concept for me as a new manager to get to know my team on multiple levels. The various perspectives gave me a clear understanding of the direction the team wants to move in, and what they found important. By using one-on-one conversations for this purpose, I got valuable input from everyone, both on a personal and a professional level. Everyone could freely express their concerns and formulate their expectations. The report that Kim gave me afterwards, clearly summarized all these things, which makes me re-read it regularly to keep the right focus. I now have a bunch of tools and tips for the future. And it was also a very nice coaching day in a pleasant atmosphere, not unimportant! ;-)”

“Attentive to the undercurrent in an organization”

“Kim is our strategic sparring partner for everything that involves people. Among other things, she carries out HR tasks concerning recruitment, the start-up and follow-up of new employees. I would describe her style as no-nonsense. She is attentive to the undercurrent in an organization and is very committed to our people. Her HR advice comes from within the group, not from some ivory tower. She’s attentive to the way people fit in an organization and detects potential tensions before they are actually visible. She can bring peace of mind to a group, helps people to feel heard, and creates perspective by showing a different way of looking at things.”

‘A real eye-opener in learning about myself with the online platform’’

“I got to work with Captain & Stoker’s online coaching concept ‘Host Your Career’. That consists of several online exercises and a 90-minute online coaching session. I found it a very engaging environment to work in, that gave me food for thought. The specific questions that were asked, offered much depth. The exercises worked a bit like a funnel: you start out broadly and eventually reach the essence. I found it a real eye-opener in learning about myself. The exercises and the conversation made me think about what exactly I want and what the possibilities are in my future career.”

“She sees us without judgment”

“Hilde of Captain & Stoker is our ‘in-house coach’. She is warm but critical, and genuinely curious about how we want to approach things. She sees us without judgment. She keeps on asking (and asking) and makes us think. She shows the possibilities and pitfalls, she inspires and challenges. And she always does so in a clear way. Oh yes, and she is incredibly nice too! ;-)””

‘Lots of new enthusiasm thanks to interactive Solution lab’

“Thanks to the tools provided to us by Kim from Captain & Stoker, and the accompanying support and guidance, our team considered the challenges that we face as a company. Both the FourSight assessment about the different styles of thinking within our team, and the ‘solution lab’ from challenge to realistic solution were eye-openers. We reached solutions that we would have never thought of before. This interactive and team-building way of working has given us tons of material to take on new challenges with lots of enthusiasm in 2023!””

Growing toward "becoming even more ourselves”

“As an organization, you are always changing. You grow, expand your offer, new people with different skill sets join, and there you go; suddenly you notice that you need an external perspective to go to the next level. That’s the moment to turn to a coach. And that’s how we did it at MMBSY, together with Ann Piessens. Her clear view and approach offer added value in a process of ‘becoming your true self even more’. And that rebellious side fits us like a glove!”

“A great framework to further build our corporate culture”

“Kim led a Lego Serious Play workshop at Juyo Analytics, on behalf of Ouzia, and that truly was a spot-on workshop! The Lego exercise was fantastic, we were very impressed with the results! The workshop has helped us to concretely define our values and to get everyone on the same page when it comes to which behavior now fits those values. This provided us with a great framework to further build our corporate culture. Kim perfectly senses what is needed at every step of our journey together and was very committed to the team. That’s why we asked her back to help us support the continued growth of our team. We did a FourSight workshop to get to know ourselves and each other even better, and we were given tools to face and solve the current challenges as a team.”
