Your team is working hard, but it's struggling. It gets stuck in islands, responsibility gets passed around, and with every problem you hear phrases like:
"That's not my job."
"I'm already at my hours."
"That's not part of my job."
Or people say yes, but do no.
Everyone wants to be a champion at the table. In the job interview, there is motivation enough. But when things get exciting, when something is really being asked ... only then do you see who is a topper and who is not.
These are signs of a team that is moving but not moving forward. That confuses cooperation with working side by side. Where separate achievements are more important than the common goal. And yes: the attitude and energy of the manager are all determining factors in this.
In my sessions, I help teams to change course. From wait-and-see to proactive. From pushing to ownership. From safe excuses to supported results.
Because fair is fair: what does it really take to be the best?
I take with me everything I have learned and seen in top sport. As an Olympic champion, coach and Chef de Mission, I have experienced what makes the difference between winning and losing. Not only talent, but above all: mentality,
behavior and guts.
I work with teams that want to move forward. Who dare to look at what can be done better. Who understand that real growth only begins when people take responsibility, even when it is difficult, outside their job description, or inconvenient.
Do you want a team with top people? Then it starts here.

Marianne had very strong content, exactly what we had in mind. She managed to engage the audience in a fun way and all present were very impressed.

Marianne told a fantastic story. The request from our organization was based on our current vitality program. Marianne did a great job by telling a very personal story, which in a fun way made it very clear to everyone where both short and long term gains can be made regarding the fitness of people. Both physically and mentally! We do try to make this clear to people more often, but as it turns out, this is accepted more quickly from one of the greatest and nicest sports heroes we have in NL :-)

Very inspiring story of successes and setbacks. Both in top sports and in everyday life. Well worth the effort!

Marianne recently gave an inspiring talk at our Business Partner Event. An incredible story, a brilliant career, but also setbacks and low points alongside the many highs. But it wasn’t just the talk. Marianne was our guest throughout the evening and an integral part of the whole experience. She sought to connect with our guests—not only at the dinner table but also during the reception and after the formal portion of the event. In our journey to build a community within the process industry, this is incredibly valuable. She was warm, approachable, and eager to engage with our vision. Even during the preliminary discussion a few months before the event, the vibe was already right, and we knew we’d made the right choice in bringing Marianne on board for our business partner event. I’m already looking forward to the follow-up to the event, which we’ll be doing together soon!
