Stories of change
Our clients are pioneers who understand that true transformation happens through embodiment. Whether it’s driving progress in DEI, strengthening leadership, or fostering employee wellbeing, they know that lasting impact requires more than a change in policy. They understand that, in order to build a workplace where everybody feels seen, heard and valued, they need to blend cognitive knowledge (IQ), emotional intelligence (EQ), and bodily awareness (BQ). Don’t just take our word for it. Hear directly from those who’ve experienced the transformation through working with us.

I had the pleasure of working with Doors Open for the senior management of Nationale Nederlanden. Together we were responsible for delivering leadership workshops for the managers of all the business units in Europe and Japan. Part of this included coaching the senior leaders.
Suzanne is an expert in the field of leadership development and a competent workshop supervisor for small and large groups. She is an experienced coach with unique skills as a somatic coach, which she has gained at the world famous Strozzi Institute of Embodied Leadership.

The Unconscious Bias workshop was a transformative experience for our team! The session was filled with actionable insights, engaging exercises, and a welcoming environment where everyone felt comfortable sharing real challenges. While the workshop was intensive, the clear guidance and uplifting energy of the facilitator made it truly enjoyable. We walked away inspired, with fresh perspectives and practical strategies to move forward. Thank you to Doors Open for being the perfect partner in driving our team’s growth and success!

I had the pleasure of collaborating with Suzanne to organize a leadership team workshop. In just half a day, she made a significant impact on our organization, laying a strong foundation for improved teamwork. The exercise she facilitated continues to serve as a valuable reference point whenever we notice old patterns re-emerging.
Suzanne’s professional approach, integrity, and exceptional ability to connect people in pursuit of common goals are true assets to any organization. I highly recommend her to any company looking to drive meaningful change and strengthen team dynamics.

Together with Suzanne I’ve developed many impactful leadership programs. I have gotten to know her as an ambitious and professional L&D expert. She always knows who to involve and keeps on top of things. She was always very attentive to the learning experience of the participants and always created a strong connection between the individual and organization’s needs and goals.

I really recommend Doors Open! I have been able to follow multiple training sessions. Suzanne is thorough, empathic, result oriented and she knows how to, in a very sensitive and tactful manner, reach the core and expose everything. With her style she is able to stimulate and inspire groups as well as individuals. She asks the right questions and holds a mirror up in front of you so that teams and individuals gain more insight in themselves.

Suzanne is an inspiring woman who truly embodies her expertise: embodied leadership. Her keynote invited our employees to step outside their comfort zone, only to discover a space that felt even more comfortable. We’re certain her insights will stick with our teams for a long time to come
