Meet our team

Jonathan Warner is a community of 14 consultants. With this team, we are able to fulfill many areas of leadership consulting. In addition, we have a network of consultants we can deploy for very large and specialized assignments.

Botte is a soft skills coach and trainer with a background as a professional actor and engineer. With an analytical approach and extensive experience with non-verbal communication, he likes to contribute to developing people and teams to work together better.

After obtaining an MSc. at the TU Delft, Botte studied acting at the New York Film Academy. This resulted in various roles in TV commercials, educational school TV series and the presentation of live events such as the Youth World Water Forum in Kyoto. While setting up his acting career, Botte has also specialized as a role player in assessment, training and coaching settings for companies.

Botte grew up in various countries in southern Africa and part of his studies and work were internationally oriented. This makes it easy for him to interact with people from different cultures and backgrounds.

As a coach, Botte mainly works with highly task-oriented leaders who want to develop their connection with the people in their organization. The result of his trajectories is to bring out hitherto little used skills and personality in communication so that these managers learn to speak more openly, more expressively and more personally with their teams. This ensures that the involvement and motivation of the organization increases. Messages come across better and there is more engagement and trust. The impact of communication is increased because the relationship and emotion levels of communication are added to the dominant content level.

With Botte, leaders can work on their communication skills in a safe and fun environment. By using experiential role-playing and targeted feedback, he can quickly facilitate results.
