"Life is too short to sit around with no prospects."

Paula Kager

Coach / Second track programme counsellor / TMA talent professional

Has your future become unclear? Do you hesitate to make choices and do you feel insecure? Because you know what you´ve got and don’t know what you will get?

I can relate to that very well. My life is one great journey of discovery. Ten years ago, I would not have believed that I would enjoy working as a coach now. Since the 1980s, I have worked in various professions and industries. Learning is my great passion. Throw me in the deep end and I’ll come floating to the surface. When people ask about my background, I say: experienced career switcher.

I started as a physiotherapist. After seven years, the routine struck. That’s why I went to college. Getting started as a tax consultant. Later, I specialized as a compensation consultant and obtained ancillary positions as a supervisor at health care institutions. As of 2017, I am an independent consultant – and even more recently career coach for experienced professionals and reintegration coach. Would I have wanted to take a different path? No,
because I learned an awful lot from each step.

As a physical therapist, I learned to take a holistic view of people and their problems. To combine working with head, heart and hands. As a tax consultant, I learned to advise, coordinate and train and mentor younger colleagues. All that in large, international organizations. As an independent entrepreneur, I discovered things like networking, working together, capturing the market and promoting your services. As chairman and member of supervisory boards, my strengths proved to be: connecting, listening, probing, gaining trust and quickly getting to the heart of the matter. These steps allowed me to explore and develop myself broadly. That is what I can offer you as a coach at Dynamisch Bureau.

Have you dropped out due to illness, disability or misfortune? I love working with you to discover who you are, what your heart is telling you, what you can do and what you want. So that you can take steps toward recovery and work that is right for you.
