Bernice Feller-Thijm
I am a performance coach with a focus on diversity and inclusion. I help improve work performances. I believe diversity in every way shape or form should be seen as an asset instead of a problem. A multitude of diverse perspectives is what is needed not only to succeed but also to innovate and solve complex problems. I work with people 1-on-1 and I work with teams. I help improve ownership, make behaviour and cultural changes and make sure all individuals within an organization are able to bring their full selves.
