“I wanted to accelerate my career growth and develop my leadership and analytical skills.
I came to Alex through a recommendation and I have been working with him for about a year.
Thanks to Alex, I have made great progress towards my goals and achieved outstanding professional results. He helped me understand complex topics, identify my priorities and focus on them for success.
Using neuroscience-based techniques, including mindfulness, Alex has coached me to the next level”
Insights are better than instructions. Using powerful questioning, I enable my clients to generate insights that expose gaps in their problem solving ability and unblock their thinking.
Set achievable goals and take decisive action. I use neuroscience-based methods to help my clients define clear goals, walk them through the steps needed to embed positive habits and meet their objectives. Neuroscience methods are unique in enabling us to unlock our potential.
The human brain can rewire itself at any stage – you’re never too old or too stuck in your ways to grow. You can transform your brain to become the person you want to be. Using neuroplasticity science, I enable my clients to identify the triggers that kickstart change, guide them in developing action plans to deliver new behaviors, and train techniques that create lasting transformation
Alex’s adventure as a coach began long before his formal training. He excelled as a natural coach at university, at McKinsey & Co and at Delivery Hero. Today, he helps leaders like you uncover hidden insights and achieve your real life-goals.
Studying economics at Sydney University, he built a reputation as the go-to for explaining difficult concepts. Remarkably the University made him a paid tutor, leading seminars with 20+ students. What made Alex’s approach so unique was his ability to identify what motivates people and boosts focus with astonishing results.
Neuroscientific research shows that teaching others is also the best way for people to learn and grow themselves. And Alex’s commitment to explaining difficult concepts enabled him to reach top distinctions:
As a management consultant at McKinsey & Co., Alex made a name building strong and enduring relationships with his clients. He built trust and respect by temporarily releasing his agenda, actively listening and coming up with win-win solutions. With ease, clients felt able to talk openly about what was behind key issues at their organization; and co-creating solutions they could embrace as their own. As a result, Alex was promoted in record time (9 months). He was considered a top-performer throughout his 2 year tenure.
Ready to apply his leadership skills in a entrepreneurial setting, Alex then joined Delivery Hero as Global Operations Lead of a newly launched internal startup. His passion for empowering his team to grow was a defining aspect of his role. For example, an operations intern receiving his mentorship, reached a level of excellence allowing him to be 3 levels within just 2 years, reporting directly to Alex and taking on ownership of several key projects across 4 continents. Alex’s focus on empowering the team’s professional growth led to the venture scaling internationally, with an annualized GMV of €100 million.
Employing methods learned at the NeuroLeadership Institute, Alex is supporting many leaders like you – helping them uncover hidden insights, discover their deep purpose, and find the grit to follow their path to success.
