Business growth & transformation
Turning ambition into a focused growth agenda, with clear choices, stronger capabilities and a practical route from strategy to results.
Growth · strategy · transformation
I help businesses and leaders make better strategic choices, align people and move from ambition to measurable results. My work combines executive coaching with hands-on experience in transformation, sustainable packaging, public affairs and regulation.
How I can help
I work with businesses, leaders and teams when growth is held back by complexity, competing priorities or a lack of alignment. Together, we clarify the choices, strengthen leadership and create a practical route to delivery.

Make growth tangible: what should change, why it matters and what success looks like.
Identify the strengths to build on, the barriers to address and the choices that matter most.
Build confidence and alignment so leaders, teams and partners can move in the same direction.
Translate ambition into focused action, clear responsibilities and measurable results.
Questions clients bring
Assignments can start with a business ambition, a leadership question or a complex external development. The common need is to create clarity, ownership and practical progress.
I help leadership teams define where growth should come from, make the necessary strategic choices and align the organisation around delivery. This can include strategy development, operating models, governance, joint business planning and transformation roadmaps.
Coaching offers leaders a confidential space to reflect, challenge assumptions and strengthen their impact. The focus can include a new role, difficult decisions, stakeholder relationships, team leadership or translating personal ambition into a practical development plan.
I support companies and associations with packaging strategy, circular business models, collection and recycling systems, deposit return systems, value-chain economics and credible transition plans.
Yes. I translate developments such as the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, extended producer responsibility and deposit return systems into business implications, strategic options and practical actions across markets.
I help organisations understand the business impact of policy change, clarify their position and build an effective engagement strategy with policymakers, industry associations and value-chain partners.
I work with senior executives, leadership teams, boards, companies and industry associations in Belgium and across Europe. Support ranges from focused critical review and individual coaching to facilitated strategy work and longer transformation assignments.

About
I am the Managing Director of VGV Management Services, based in Belgium and working across Europe. I help businesses, leaders and teams grow by combining strategic thinking, executive experience and a practical, people-centred approach.
Before founding VGV Management Services, I held senior leadership roles at The Coca-Cola Company in Western Europe. Leading people and change across markets taught me that sustainable growth is never only about the strategy. It depends on confident leadership, shared ownership and the ability to turn ambition into action.
I bring that experience to consulting, transformation and coaching assignments where people need clarity, honest challenge and renewed momentum.
