Trailblazing People

This World Mental Health Day, we at Trailblazing People are shining a light on burnout; a growing challenge in today’s workplace. Mental health is at the heart of what we do, and we believe that understanding your unique strengths through CliftonStrengths can be a powerful tool in preventing and overcoming burnout. Burnout often occurs when we’re not able to fully play to our strengths. But here’s the good news: by tapping into what you do best, you can turn things around. Here's how your strengths can guide you: 💜 Executors (Executing): Your natural drive may be to keep pushing or get active. But taking a moment to reflect and focus on the positive can be a game-changer in reducing burnout. 🧡 Influencers (Influencing): You might lean on socializing or dreaming up new goals, but physical movement and learning from past wins can help you handle stress more effectively. 💙 Relationship builders: While you’re often tuned into the emotions of others, mindfulness and taking time for yourself can help lower stress and recharge your energy. 💚 Strategic thinkers: You may want to step back and reflect, but reframing challenges as stepping stones to success could be the key to boosting your mental well-being. At Trailblazing People, we’re here to help you, your team, and your organization thrive by unlocking the power of your strengths. How will you harness your strengths today? #BurnoutPrevention #WorldMentalHealthDay #TrailblazingPeople

Big things are brewing this summer with our founder Amarja! Ladies, keep an eye on her posts for something special coming your way ☀️

At Trailblazing People, we believe true success comes from discovering and nurturing your unique talents, rather than focusing on fixing weaknesses. Today, Esther, Barbara, and Amarja spent the day working hard together, trailblazing some exciting new initiatives for the months ahead. During this summer, something special has been cooking in the kitchen of Trailblazing People, and we’re fully energized to help everyone we meet unlock their full potential. We're passionate about seeing people thrive by embracing their strengths. We’re so incredibly proud and grateful to partner with amazing companies who share our vision of bringing out the best in their people. It’s a privilege to work alongside organizations that are as committed to growth and excellence as we are. Exciting times are on the horizon, stay tuned, there’s so much more in store! 🌟 #AwesomenessIsNeverAchievedAlone #TrailblazingPeople #SummerVibes

We couldn’t agree more with Tim Ferriss! 👏 Summer is a time for relaxation 🌞 and reflection 🧘♀️. Question: Do you know what your unique strengths are? And if so, do you use your strengths every day? Or are you—like most of us—focused on fixing weaknesses? Share your thoughts in the comments! #TimFerriss #Strengths #TrailblazingPeople

We're thrilled to introduce Meike Dijkstra, the newest addition to our Trailblazing People family! Meike joins us as our new strengths coach, bringing a wealth of skills and experience to the team. Her expertise in helping individuals unlock their full potential is sure to make a significant impact. We are confident that Meike will be an incredible asset, driving growth and success for our clients and team alike. Meike: "I love helping organizations, teams, and individuals reach their full potential. I believe that the success of any organization starts with its people. Unfortunately, this realization is still underemphasized in many organizations. High-performing teams need more than just focus and a clear strategy; they need an environment where everyone can thrive, both individually and together. That’s why I’m committed to creating a space where people and teams feel engaged and can work together towards success. With my strengths as a Maximizer, Learner, and Achiever, I am always looking for ways to bring out the best in everyone and encourage ongoing growth and development. My Woo and Positivity strengths make it easy for me to connect with others and inspire teams. Combining my leadership and Management Team experience at Heineken with my passion for team engagement and development, I help build environments where everyone can reach their potential and achieve success together." Join us in giving Meike a warm welcome as she embarks on this exciting journey with us! #WelcomeMeike #TrailblazingPeople #NewTeamMember #StrengthsCoach

We're very excited to work with the Architecture & Platform Strategy department of ABN AMRO to help them discover and leverage their strengths! Our coaches Brigitte Steenbakkers, Meike Dijkstra and Esther Kruize started with 1:1 talent coaching of all the team members, followed by team workshops - diving deep into their collective talents. The curiosity, openness, passion and eagerness to learn was so much fun for us to work with! The start of a journey that not only enhances their professional growth but also brings connection and positieve energy to the work environment. Thank you Henk, Rodrigo and Carolien for being great ambassadors and leading by example. At Trailblazing People, we believe in the power of everyones uniqueness. Everyone brings something special to the workplace. We help individuals, teams and organizations figure out what their uniqueness is and how to leverage this for more engagement and success.

When individuals combine their unique #talents, the impact is enormous. It leads to greatness like: success, energy, and engagement. We're thrilled that these ABNAMRO teams first took the time to understand and develop their own talents. Now, it's time to pair those talents for even greater success, and at the same time it brings great fun ✨ #WorkingTogetherFromTalents #TalentDevelopment #WorkplaceCulture
