ADVANCE YOUR HUMANITARIAN CAREER!
✔︎ Imagine having a life where you have both a meaningful and fulfilling professional and private life? I can assure you that it is possible in spite of naysayers.
✔︎Imagine that you’re not stuck, permanently stressed and overwhelmed, frustrated but content and energetic.
✔︎Imagine that your professional path is clear to you and that you are becoming the leader you always wanted to see in the world.
WHY GROUP COACHING for HUMANITARIANS?
Karin and I created this 3 months Group Coaching for Humanitarian programme for you because we know just how difficult it is to plan your career in the long term and to have work-life balance to allow you to be a better humanitarian leader. We have been there ourselves. I remember so many times feeling overwhelmed and exhausted from working so many hours even during weekends and still feeling guilty for not having done enough and neglecting my private life.
I love the community combined with the exercises we did during this process. The community provides a space where we can learn from each other (helpful to unstuck ideas) and accountability. All the exercises (understanding our values, inner leader, and life purpose) are very important to make life decisions – yet so many people are not clear about theirs so this programme has addressed our foundational needs. Viki and Karin are very warm — making me feel seen — and super helpful in responding our questions, concerns as well as very flexible in understanding our needs — the world needs people like them!

This is our response to you feeling frustrated about your humanitarian careers; limited career planning opportunities, difficulties to discuss and deeply think through these important issues with someone who really understands you, or just simply not having enough headspace and energy to sit, think through, and plan.
I liked the exercise of values a lot, sharing with fellow coachees good experiences and hearing what they thought my values are. I liked receiving practical exercises that I can come back to when I feel out of touch with myself. I really liked the homework you gave, asking us to reflect on the topic, but in a structured way. I really need it structured as it doesn’t come naturally yet so thank you for that.

Cohort 1WHAT IS IT?
Group Coaching for Humanitarians is a coaching programme for humanitarians and development workers aiming to improve humanitarian careers and live more fulfilling lives. The programme aims to give you clarity about your humanitarian career, and humanitarian leadership and define your long-term plans whether in the aid sector or outside.
The support of the group and being able to hear about others triumphs and struggles in their humanitarian careers has been helpful. You feel as though you’re not in this experience alone. It’s motivating to have other people to support you. I would highly recommend Viki and Karin to anyone who may want a little guidance with their leadership style, to learn more about their core values and how this translates into personal/career goals.
