Hi, I'm
Alena Wajs-Hielema
I'm here to help you shape your next bold chapter using my capacity as a licensed career coach & counselor, award-winning leadership coach, and international trainer. I am a professional coach of EMCC Global (Dutch: NOBCO), upholding the highest international standards in coaching and mentoring.
With academic training in sociology and HR management, I offer over 20 years of international experience in operational, recruitment, leadership, and people development roles.
By blending proven methodologies with lived experience, I guide you to regain clarity, elevate your leadership presence, and navigate career transition with confidence and strategic focus.
With years of mentoring women across industries and all levels, I know that midlife isn’t
about starting over—it’s about building on all you’ve achieved and redefining your
professional direction with clarity, authority, purpose and courage.
She helped me figure out who I am and what I want out of my career and life. Together we identified the factors influencing my career development and assessed my interests, abilities, and values to make better decisions. I enjoyed every single conversation, even those difficult and challenging. The process was not only focused on tools for self-reflection and assessments but also on releasing limiting beliefs and building supportive habits to get me where I plan to be—a genuinely holistic approach. Alena always went the extra mile to support me where needed and was a source of laughter and never ending positive energy! I wholeheartedly recommend her to all professionals who, for whatever reason, are in career transition or planning to develop their careers differently, in alignment with their desires yet realistic"
