Are you a senior professional or an executive who is looking to take a next serious step in your career? To have a more meaningful, impact driven and successful career? You came to the right place!

Hi 👋🏻 I'm Dorota, great to meet you! 

I am passionate about providing my clients with transformational career coaching, so that they can achieve the revolutionary change in their career and create an impact they desire to see in the world.

I am an Official Member of Forbes Coaches Council. 

My book "Career Jump! How to Successfully Change Your Professional Path" is available on www.careerjump.nl, amazon.com.

Does this sound like you?

“I’m looking for a career path that is meaningful. But I am not sure what it exactly means for me.”

“I am stuck, and I cannot decide on the next steps.”

“I desperately want to change my job, but I do not have a clue what else could I do professionally and how to start.”

“For years I was just rolling into my career from one function into another, I want to take a conscious decision in what type of organization I do want to work.”

“I want to get reassurance that my new career ideas are the right ones.”

“Everyone tells me I have such a great job, but I feel I am in a wrong place and I feel guilty for wanting something else.”

“I know what my next steps should be, but my negative inner voice is stopping me from taking action.”

“I feel stressed at my current job. I don’t sleep well. I feel miserable after a day at work. But I do not know what I could do instead. I feel stuck. At the same time my job keeps on paying the bills, so I feel trapped in a golden cage.” 

Do you recognize any of these? If yes, I want to help YOU!

In the past 14 years I have coached 1000+ clients from all over the world and helped them to  successfully change their careers and even countries.

I am a certified coach/counselor at Dutch Academy for Psychotherapy. I am also a Brain-Based Certified Coach, Results Trained Coach at NeuroCoaching Institute and Mental Strength Coach. 

I want to help YOU to thrive in your professional life abroad. So that you can feel empowered to realize your (professional) dreams and lead the life you want!

If you are an HR Manager and you are looking for support with your international employees contact me on dorota@dosocoaching.com.

I provide individual career coaching, trainings and workshops (from 6 to 100+ participants) on career development, career transition and building mental strength.
