Hello, I am Rixt Kuiper, president of “Executive Style.”

I have worked in diverse international organizations, work settings and industries, and I have over twelve years’ experience in training effective and cross-culture communication, leadership and stress management. Through one-on-one coaching or group training my clients, from manager to senior-level executives, enhance their performance and, therefore, contribute more to meeting their companies’ objectives.

My coaching style has been described as personal, fundamental and pragmatic. With a unique combination of organizational and human insight, enthusiasm, directness and professional empathy, my clients succeed in achieving their goals. They become more self-aware, learn to be more convincing, build effective relationships and feel more at ease in their role as leaders.

In addition to being a coach and a business owner, I am a successfully, published author. My CD/book, "OP Adem Komen," about stress relief in work-related situations is very popular in Europe and ranks number five on the best-seller list for THEMA publishers. My interest in meditation as tool for personal growth has led me to write my second book: “What is the color of wind?” meditation stories that will get you started. In addition I will create an e-coaching program for busy people who want more peace of mind.

Born and raised in the Netherlands. I studied in Scotland at Strathclyde University, Glasgow, and I have worked with clients from Australia, Canada, China, India, Europe and the USA.
My BA is in Speech Therapy, and I am MBTI qualified as well as a certified, personal effectiveness trainer. I’m also a certified REBT- (Albert Ellis Institute NYC) and cross culture trainer. I received my coaching education from New York University and the Quantum Coaching Program in Colorado,

I founded Executive Style in 2003, shortly after my move from the Netherlands to the USA.  After 4 successful business years, my husband, son and I relocated to Hong Kong in 2007. I therefore continued my coaching business in the heart of Asia.

Since 2010 I’m back ‘home’ in the Netherlands.  Living and working on three continents has shaped me as a person; I adept easily to different cultures and enjoy being a global citizen.

In my spare time I like to be with my husband and 3 children, travel to new places, do yoga, run, play piano and scuba dive. I’ve been dancing since my early childhood and it is still my favorite pastime.
