“Delivered great value for us with 1:1 coaching, training on feedback and especially by facilitating multiple offsites: first for one MEP and her staff, then a two-day offsite with 5 MEPs and 30 staff. I experienced Barend as a highly committed professional throughout: proactively unburdening our organisation during busy times while managing stakeholders and subcontractors well. He and his partners facilitated a space where everybody could feel safe, heard and valuable towards our goals. I'd warmly recommend him and the Good Institute to others.”

— Office Manager of a 35-person delegation in the European Parliament
