This seat is for youLet’s schedule a meeting. I’d like to hear what’s going on—not the polished version, but the messy truth. I’ll respond personally within 48 hours, and we can spend half an hour seeing if I’m the right person to help with your situation. No strings attached, no sales pitch. By phone, via video call, or in person—I’m happy to come to you.

About my fees
I am not the cheapest, and that is no accident. A forty-five-minute keynote holds two to three days of work: a conversation beforehand about what needs to be on the table in your room, stories made to measure, film, and the day itself. A workshop holds three half-days, a building we furnish together, colleagues from Rotterdam who have done it before, and a product you can show afterwards. That is what you pay for, not the minutes on stage.
How I charge:
-
a keynote or masterclass is one fixed fee, preparation included.
-
A workshop is one fixed price per programme, for two to ten participants.
-
The outsider-insider is a programme price with a defined assignment.
-
Coaching and peer supervision are packages with a fixed number of sessions. No hours added afterwards, no surprises.
Education, non-profits and conferences without a commercial budget pay a lower rate. Everything I offer fits within the single-source threshold of most public organisations.
You hear the fee in our first conversation, once I know what you need. That conversation is free and commits you to nothing, except a few uncomfortable questions.
