Man en Paard mobilises the potential of people resulting in organisations that achieve more. We have a lot of experience in change management processes, team development and coaching. We focus on people and organisations that want to take the next step in their development, but realise they need more than good intentions and willpower to make the change actually happen.
'Man en paard noemen' (literally 'to name man and horse') is the Dutch equivalent of 'to call a spade a spade'. We are honest, open and direct. We provide the breakthrough!.
We have a preference for meeting live. In the meantime we've grown accustomed to online meetings and will probably keep doing that, at least partially. Dealing with content and procedure has been proven to be very effective, but the subtle exchange of interaction and emotions is difficult, online even more than face to face. To prevent the accumulation of communication problems it's important to find ways to remedy that.
Insights Discovery helps to recognise behaviour and (stress) patterns and provides you with a language to bring these up for discussion. You'll be able to build better relationships, manage and supervise more effectively and improve the collaboration in your team, also online. You and your organisation will perform better.
Our work varies from short interventions in the form of work sessions with teams and individual coaching of employees and managers, to organising and supervising complex organisational development processes. We want teams to be more successful, organisations more effective and people to experience meaning and happiness in their work. Our approach is often customised. We design the process in line with the day-to-day practice of people and that proves successful in taking them to the next level!
Change is like a good story, with content ánd 'dramatic' suspense. On that principle we design and supervise change management processes and help managers to lead these effectively.

The strength of a team lies in the differences between people. The challenge is how you deal with them, on 'good' and 'bad' days. We guide teams in every phase of their development.

We focus on what you want to achieve personally, with your team or organisation and translate those ambitions into a specific change strategy. This is the logical, conscious side of the process, that often triggers enthusiasm, the upper current. What prevents people to actually bring about change is an under current proces, and much more elusive. We encourage you to look at upper current ánd under current. By uncovering and addressing unconscious patterns, we mobilise your potential and thus enable change.
In the hustle and bustle that characterises our daily perspective, you can only solve the issues you run into in a way you already know. Under the stress of day-to-day affairs our learning abilities are low. With our approach we organise moments of 'slow time' to reflect and learn. With time to process insights, change will be more durable. If necessary we make use of space outside the work environment to stimulate another perspective.
Man en Paard consists of Paul Roks and Marja Heuvelman. We know how to connect to people and their issues, and bring focus and clarity. The long-time experience of Paul in designing change management processes and the ability of Marja to address mental blocks and illusions, make us a strong combination of both upper and under current.
"Enthusiasm, keen perception and a strongly personal approach are my characteristics. I know how to specify the essence of what's going on regarding content and the human factor involved. The situation itself is rarely the problem, our thoughts about it cause trouble. I help people to see through their patterns and enable them to overcome these. As a result the energy of people will be released and the problem solving abilities of the organisation will increase."
"I coach people individually and in teams, often in the context of a change process, in both public and private sector. It's wonderful if the energy in the change process flows freely, but that's rarely the case. What catches my eye are beliefs and illusions, unmentioned, but important issues and ambitions that are not consistent with reality. I de-escalate emotions that create a lot of confusion to manageable proportions. That provides clarity and the space to move on."
