Alex van Oostveen
Faculty Roles:
Coach Mentor, Credentialed Observer, Support Staff, Coaching Supervisor
Coaching Credential:
ICF PCC, EMCC ESIA EIA
As practitioners, coaches, supervisors, the way we work with people reveals our beliefs about how personal and professional growth happen.
Growth is not a direct path towards outcomes and solutions. It requires a deepened of understanding self, relationships, and the systems we are part of. Optimum solutions and outcomes for self and all parties to the system emerge from this understanding. Insight naturally leads to meaningful and sustainable action.
I am certified by EMCC Global as coach/mentor supervisor (ESIA) and Accredited Coach (EIA) at Senior Practitioner level, and hold a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential with ICF.
My 20-year previous career in military helicopter operational flying and advanced flight instruction affords me insight and experience in multi-faceted and risk-prone settings.
I had the privilege of flying as both wingman and leader of the South African Air Force's formation aerobatic team for 4 years, promoting aviation in RSA and neighbouring countries.
In these roles I experienced the successes, failures and unique challenges leaders face. More importantly I learned the value of effective communication and potent relationships within complex, high-risk, and dynamic organisational environments.
Using a relational approach, and informed by psychological theories (transactional analysis, Gestalt), I work with leaders and executive coaches to problem-solve more effectively, in the spheres of systems, relationships, tasks, and self.
This approach sees what emerges in our professional relationship as a window into what occurs in your life. The meaningful change that happens in our work together, supports meaningful change in your life.
