ABOUT robert de wilde
I am a certified business coach and career coach, with more than 10 years experience in personal growth.
It can sometimes be lonely to always solve personal challenges on your own. My clients hire me as a sparring partner; an outsider who can look at things from a different angle. My location is Amsterdam and Zwolle. As an independent (inhouse) lawyer I worked for more than 20 companies. I also regularly coach online.
Professional background
I started my career as a lawyer at a large Dutch law firm (in Amsterdam and the Netherlands Antilles). After that I worked for creative talents in television and music, as an independent agent/manager. It was then that I realized my passion for working with people. I decided to follow my heart and dedicate myself completely to the personal growth of people from business, media and the legal profession.

My Purpose
My purpose in life: ‘to let others extend themselves’.
I use the latest in podcasts, apps and TED Talks to inspire between coaching sessions. I am a father of 2 and I am an organizer of a mini- triathlon for friends and family. My passions are being in nature, endurance sports and photography.
Some years ago, I co-founded a learning & development start-up in London - we use magic to change teams and people.
My Mission
It is my belief that sooner or later in life, whatever we do and achieve, we benefit from someone who inspires and helps us with breakthroughs. I am non-judgmental, supportive and I strive for my clients to be more fulfilled in life
