Gerrien was already my client before she had written her book "Parking a Tesla Anyone Can." She has given a number of workshops for us and I have experienced a transformation project with her. In an organization, it is sometimes difficult to get your colleagues to join you in a different way of working. Gerrien is an expert and knows how to transfer this to others. She is creative and her book lets you experience the different steps of a transformation through the hourglass model. When I read the book I could just see Gerrien's contagious enthusiasm in front of me. It is written in understandable language and is full of appealing examples and practical tips. A must for anyone who wants to know how to be an effective leader in transformation."

"A book with an original paradigm, which is written in a very accessible way. Bonus is that at the same time you are informed about the latest insights in the literature in the field of leadership and digitalization. Good investment of your time and money."

"Gerrien Anbeek presents in an easy to read book the latest trends in digitalization, its impact on your (future) work and how you behave in it as a leader or professional. Smoothly written and well supported with the latest literature from authors such as Gilder (Life after Google), Lee, Yang and Scharmer  (Theory U). The best investment in times of crisis."

The first impression I got of Gerrien was that of a strong personality with a pleasant charisma. After working with her for a period of time, I can only endorse this. Gerrien is a true professional with an aura of calm and strength, whose input I particularly appreciate. To the point, respectful and direct. You can build with her and on her."

"Gerrien is very pleasant as a coach. She knows how to pinpoint all the problems and can also push through opposition. She knows how to stimulate someone to look at things differently."

"Gerrien has guided me during a coaching program through Schouten & Nelissen, consisting of some personal conversations and practical assignments. I have experienced this process as very valuable.Omdat Gerrien goed communiceert en zich prima in kan leven in de persoon die ze voor zich heeft, bleek ze in staat om mij precies die handvatten aan te reiken die ik nodig had om mezelf verder te ontwikkelen.”

"Gerrien has an open attitude that puts you at ease right from the start. Her analytical/perceptive skills are highly developed and give very specific insights into the coaching. She is a good listener, but also has a clear way of articulating and recommending. Furthermore, she brings coaching to a direct and practical advice that helps to take the next steps forward".

"I have come to know Gerrien as a candid, approachable professional who is easy to get along with and blessed with a keen eye for talent. As a talent manager, she got to the bottom of me in no time. She held up a mirror to me, helped me search for my passions (in the short and long term), served as a sparring partner in exploring opportunities, and finally tapped into her network to help me successfully take the next step."

“Gerrien took on the critical role of Director for Program and Project Management within the GCSC. Her exceptional people skills allowed us to make continued progress during this global collaboration on the Traction project. She helped facilitate and manage the completion of Solution Pathways during this complex effort to create modular, component, client-driven solution offerings. In addition, she managed the integration of SMART Management ™ components in conjunction with the University of Calgary. Her professional attitude and presence also served us well in representing the GCSC at both the Americas and the European Program Management Solutions Councils.”

“I’ve worked with Gerrien for several months as a personal consultant for leadership development at ING. During this period I’ve experienced her being a very enthousiastic and inspiring person, whilst keeping an good balance between personal and company interests. (Which probably is the ultimate challenge concerning personal or leadership development within a company environment). I’d highly recommend Gerrien for both personal coaching as well as development and execution of management development programmes.
