I highly appreciate Sandra’s holistic and systematic approach. She places my capabilities into perspective within the Swiss context, offers thoughtful guidance on networking, and acts as both a door-opener and a bridge-builder. Sandra brings a strong emphasis on values, impact, self-efficacy, reality checks, resilience, and entrepreneurial capability, always keeping the roadmap and next steps clearly in view.

It is important to have an insightful and experienced coach when considering a change in professional direction. Mrs. Schnyder helped me think through the choices of staying on the operating level or following the Board path as well as developing a plan of action to successfully make that shift. I recommend her and the team she is leading at this new company.
