Meet Manja – Coach at Formorrow
”You can share what is on your mind with me, and I am also here to make you think. Together, we work purposefully on your development.”
About Manja
I am a positive, hands-on person who draws energy from both people and results. At Formorrow, I fulfil the roles of manager, coach and trainer, and I enjoy working with others on growth and development. At home in Houten, I enjoy life with my husband, our two children and our cat. I love cooking, spending time with others, a good glass of wine, reading and walking. You will also often find me enthusiastically on the sidelines as a hockey coach.
What makes me unique as a coach
My coaching is centred on openness and non-judgemental listening. I am there to ask clarifying questions and bring patterns to light. Together, we work purposefully on your development, and I will not hesitate to challenge you when needed. I believe a safe and confidential atmosphere is essential. You should feel free to share everything. I see us as equal partners. It is my passion to guide and inspire you, while you always remain in charge of your own choices and growth.
What others say about me

My experience in coaching and training
After completing my master’s degree in Organisational Psychology and gaining several years of experience in IT recruitment and selection, I further developed myself as a coach and trainer. I completed a postgraduate master’s programme in Essence Development, which focuses on unlocking the potential of individuals, teams and organisations. I am also a Stress and Burn-out Coach, as well as a certified Insights Discovery coach and trainer.

For all your questions
Can I choose my own coach?
Yes, you can! At Formorrow, we believe it is important that you have a coach who is a good fit for you. Ask yourself: Who am I? What do I want to work on? With those questions in mind, you can choose a coach who matches your needs and goals. Need help making a choice? We are happy to think along with you.
What does the coaching programme look like?
Our coaching programme is tailored to your personal growth and ambitions. Together with your coach, you work on challenges in your work and discover which role you want to fulfil. Inspiring training sessions with your academy group offer new insights, and your coach helps you turn them into action.
What is the impact of coaching?
Coaching can have a major impact. It helps you overcome obstacles, achieve your goals and regain momentum in your growth. You receive the right tools and insights to stand in your strength, strengthen your mindset and increase your self-confidence. This helps you create lasting, positive changes in your career.
How are our coaches assessed?
Our coaches are assessed based on the impact they make. The employee satisfaction survey shows that our coaching is rated with a strong 9. This is because we mainly focus on the personal process and the growth you experience. Your development is at the centre.

Build your career
With your personal coach, you look further ahead. How do you envision your future? And how will you get there? Your coach is there for all your questions about tomorrow and the reality of today.
