Bio
Nadja Mayer
Belen has been a guiding light to me, starting my career in Big Tech. I approached her without a clue as to where I want to be and how I want to get there, but I knew pretty soon that if I wanted to find any answers I'd want to do so with Belen. Our calls help me focus like little else - focus on the right questions and the right mindset. She so nimbly responds to my multitude of questions and doubts with soft guidance and real, honest, authentic feedback. At the end of every call I look forward to the next, because her genuineness is unmatched in corporate and refreshing like nothing else. If my best friend asked me to recommend her a coach - without thinking twice, I would recommend Belen.

I was looking at a Chief of Staff role and wanting to know what it was really about and what it took to be successful. Although we were colleagues, I had never worked with Belen before. I contacted Belen and from the onset she was incredible. Sharing insights into her role, what she did to get there and how she found it. What I found really valuable was the challenges she overcame in herself, having the belief to apply and the confidence that it would be a success. For me, this was the biggest hurdle I had to overcome, convincing myself I was good enough. She shared a lot of advice and gave me the boost I needed to go for it. On top of that, we discussed at length the types of interview I'd face and what tips & tricks I could use to stand out from the others. If you're like me and you want to take the next step in your career, I'd highly recommend Belen.

I reached out to Belen while we worked at SAP, inquiring about her path to Chief of Staff. Belen was instrumental in me landing my current role as Chief of Staff. Not only did she give me recommendations on whom to reach out to, but she coached me on what questions to ask and why they were important. She shared tips she used in her Chief of Staff interview process, which I believe were what made my candidacy stand out over the 50+ other applicants who applied. Aside from that, she just has a great level of business insight and is invaluable.
