Business Growth Coaching

“I was stuck in a static position for a long time and knew I should already have something on the ‘table’, but didn’t dare to decide on things which were only starting to be articulated inside me.  I didn’t know how to proceed and progress, and whether I was heading in the right direction at all. During the Business Model You training Benedek held, I learned a lot about myself in a new way, and could understand the way to the ‘dream job’ finally.  Also, when we put down the basics to paper, my coach (Benedek) showed me several practical things to do to progress – such as my new LinkedIn profile, how to do my CV in an attractive way, etc., which all brought me closer to my goal.  I met a very direct, empathetic, yet highly rational person.  I thoroughly enjoyed working with Benedek.” – Dori

Benedek worked with me in the elaboration of a Business Plan to introduce TropicOiL’s products in Europe. Ben’s experience and knowledge of the European market, his ability to see the big picture and his marketing and strategy skills were decisive in the shaping of a (Winner) Business plan that was chosen by the University of Oxford to represent it at the Moot Corp Business plan competition in Austin (Texas). I am very happy to recommend Ben as I consider him to be a very pro-active, passionate/committed and result’s oriented team player. I hope I will work with him again in the future.– Jose Andres Diaz, Director at IC Fundacion

“I have found very useful and enjoyable working with Benedek. His open style and practical approach helped me open up and speak freely about my own feelings and experience in a situational context. These conversations made me understand my ‘focus areas’ in a deep and meaningful way, and helped me realise the importance of addressing them to avoid unnecessary stress and raise the ‘feel-good’ factor in work/private life. We have worked on topics such as perfectionism, assertive communications and open and inclusive approach with others. I particularly liked that we used LSI and Berne’s Transaction Analysis (TA) models quite frequently during the sessions. I have found especially Berne’s TA very interesting read into understanding certain attitudes and what needs to be done to change them.” – Peter

“I expressed my need for coaching, as I felt depressed and unsuccessful in my position. I had a feeling that I didn’t add value to the processes, just to do the requests. I had many conflicts with other departments, which were generated because of miscommunication. My main goal was to improve my communication skill and proactivity to make my cooperation smoother with other departments. After each session, I tried to apply new approaches, change my behaviour, step by step. After a while I felt slight changes in the communication of my counterparties which motivated me to keep up changing my behaviour. Nowadays, I feel more confident communicating and expressing my ideas in front of a wider audience. Besides communication, I set up project management as an additional goal – managing projects by advising solutions, influencing and motivating others to reach the projects’ goals. Thanks to Benedek and to the applied changes in my behaviour, I have more self-confidence expressing my views, ideas, motivating and working with co-workers to deliver projects and deliver presentations in front of a wider audience. Looking at mid-term, I hope that I will have opportunity to work together with Benedek and to develop further myself.” – George

“With his questions and observations, Benedek has allowed me to recognise some of my unconscious beliefs that were holding me back. He has helped me realize how to overcome those beliefs and move forward. ” – Fiona
