CTL Leadership Coaching for Leaders in Education

Drs. Alies Zijlstra MME is a committed and incisive leadership coach, mediator and consultant with over 20 years of experience in higher education.

"During one or more individual conversations, I like to support you in the (further) development of your leadership, where there is room for all your questions on the professional as well as the personal level. About 8 years ago I founded the network organization AcademicVision. At the VU I have developed and supervised the SKO program and I am currently providing leadership coaching for the Educational Leadership Course. I look forward to meeting you!"

Drs. Allard Gerritsen, from his mediation/core reflection background, is involved in individual coaching of teachers and in leadership projects. He is also a trainer and educational consultant at the Centre for Teaching & Learning.

"From your professional identity, it is pleasant and important to map the 'playing field in which you move on a daily basis.' To discuss the pros and cons of possible choices. And then to look at your considerations and interests. Content, from the organization, the relationship with your team, your vision of leadership and your own circumstances. I address your strengths and possible challenges. I look forward to meeting you!"

As a registered supervisor, Drs. Jessy la Faille is involved in individual coaching/supervision and peer supervision within leadership programs.

"Be your own leader" (Cohn) I find a beautiful principle when it comes to learning. As a leader in education, just like teachers, you learn from yourself and others every day. You relate from your own identity, values and vision to the people you work with and to the organization. Important components here include autonomy, interdependence, place, individuality and strategy. In our conversations, you explore who you are as a leader, among other things, and there is room for strategic questions and dilemmas. I listen, ask questions and look with you. Looking forward to seeing you!"
