"Working with Fred has been an absolute pleasure and has provided me with invaluable insights. He is a unique blend of exceptional business acumen, an extraordinary ability to “read” people, and a deep understanding of complex team dynamics and power structures. His out-of-the-box thinking consistently challenges conventional approaches, providing fresh perspectives.
Fred has a rare talent for respectfully pushing me beyond my comfort zone and offering viewpoints that have often been eye-opening. His sense of humor adds a touch of lightness, making every coaching session enjoyable and engaging.
I am deeply grateful for the value Fred has brought to me in a variety of circumstances—whether it was during personal transitions, such as changing jobs, or in professional contexts involving team challenges, business opportunities, or long-term strategic thinking for my Division. Fred has consistently helped me navigate these diverse situations with clarity and insight.
I wholeheartedly recommend Fred as a coach to even the most demanding individuals. His expertise, emotional intelligence, and ability to provide lasting value make him an outstanding choice for anyone seeking growth, both personally and professionally."

Fred has been coach, advisor and mentor to me through 15 years of my career from starting out as a Consultant in Deloitte to my current role as a Chairman of the Board in Tech.
Fred combines business acumen and experience (you name it, he has done it) with an extraordinary ability to understand people's strengths and weaknesses and what they mean in terms of your career path and possible futures.
Throughout the years Fred has helped me solve complex organisational issues, clarify company strategy and helped me make sound decisions on my own career path. I recommend Fred in the highest terms.

"The intelligence of Fred has no limits and, combined with his passion, it turns each conversation with him into a journey - I can easily spend hours talking to him and never notice the time pass by. The real master of all human interactions, he is an eternal source of insights, and is the only one I know able to systemise this complicated field.
Each of the precious conversations with Fred would bring new vision on myself, my personal and work life’s. It’s been a privilege to be accompanied by you over past few years and I hope to continue lifelong."

“Fred has had a profoundly positive influence on my professional and personal life over the many years he has mentored and coached me.
His incredibly quick understanding of complex issues and his ability to cut straight through to the fundamentals of seemingly any challenge continue to amaze me.
Our discussions range from day-to-day tactical matters to high-level, long-term strategy, and they are always both enjoyable and deeply insightful. The topics we have covered are too numerous to list here, but they have included personal and professional relationships, career movements, and commercial and technical challenges, to name just a few.
Fred’s influence has been pivotal in both my life and career. Having progressed through an unconventional consulting career path to becoming a trusted advisor to executives at some of the world’s most successful companies, I am confident that I would not be in this position had I not met him.
I highly recommend Fred as a coach and feel very fortunate to be able to do so”

“For someone of a sensing and feeling disposition that I know myself to have, Fred’s analytical observations on how I see the world through my camera lens, has been eye opening. Seemingly simple enough, Fred’s ability to succinctly verbalise my point of view, has had a profound effect on me knowing my strengths and weaknesses - my USP and where to improve. This is extremely valuable and I would argue, very hard to do on your own.
A conversation with Fred is always illuminating and intriguing, sometimes thought provoking, as he invites you to see things from an unfamiliar vantage point. With warmth and humour, he’s able to offer up a bird’s eye view of a situation while drilling down to details and coming up with tangible suggestions to what you can do! I can’t recommend Fred highly enough for coaching that can actually make a difference!”

"I can only be eternally grateful for the journey we’ve made together. All your advice has helped me better orient myself in the world of work, but also discover myself, and find a form of peace with the value of work.
You made me ask myself all the right questions, and above find the right elements of response. To reconcile myself with work, with which I was a little angry. And to find a certain inner peace, as well as a form of confidence in what I accomplish.
You have been my coach, a captain and compass in times of storm, and a yoga master to seek a certain zenitude and fulfillment in what I accomplish both professionally and in everything that fits me. Fred, I look forward to facing these next work challenges and continuing our discussions together”
