Dominique (ceo) - retreat Marbella Thanks Joris for the confronting talks. They opened my eyes and I realized that most of the answers were already inside me. I just did not see them. Looking now at my job, my relationship... I am going to do things much differently. And thanks that I may always call or whatsapp you... Thanks for my new life. Thank you for being from now on my personal guru... My true life experience with Joris Plu by Gary N. (Marbella, Spain) The decision to allow Joris to come in to my life and help change my mind set was one of the best I could have made. I found his enthusiasm and experience with treating how I was feeling then, truly motivating. I noticed changes after the first session and the many references, tools and advise I have learnt since from him, I use every day and they help me. To anyone thinking about going ahead, I would urge you to go ahead, you will be happy you did for sure. Mike (ceo) - Marbella Real Estate Co I contacted Joris because I had some problems with my sales and marketing team. Two different worlds who need to work together to get the best possible results. We had a very good meeting and he made a special tailor made programm to help us with internal conflicts and a step by step tool to have the best team ever. Which I have now. I took some time and changes but I am very happy with the results. The business is doing much better, I am happy and my team is much happier. So thanks Joris for your even ongoing support. See you soon again. Erna - personal counseling 'Thanks to Joris I found the power within myself. He learned me to think more positive and to have trust! And from that moment on I started to do things I could have never imagined before. He really cares about you. Also between the consultations I could (and did) stay in touch with him via phone or whatsapp. He always reacted very fast. In that way you never loose contact.' Christine (md) - One week private retreat in Marbella coming from Belgium - her story... 'Desperate and looking for myself with so much inner sorrow after a recent difficult divorce I started the "Marbella adventure". Oh Jesus, what a mess I was .... Feeling cold in search of the meaning of life, afraid of being myself. I was swimming out of control in that vast ocean which is called the world. And then you meet Joris. And yes, after the first contact, I was immediately inspired to start that search for myself. Simply because there is so much positivity and understanding from him! And then on the way to the big adventure! Flying from Belgium to Spain. That first time traveling alone and especially the thought of not knowing what to expect, having to leave my comfort zone completely. The first days were hard and confronting. And at those moments you realize that Joris is very subtle, from the first contact, he has planted seeds in my head, You have given me direction in that search for myself (of which I was so allergic), and you have given insights into learning how to let go of others and situations, Joris. And it's so beautiful that I'm on my own now and can do it at my own pace. Step by step, relaxed, thanks to your listening ear and those deep conversations. Life's bells of joy have begun to ring because you have made me realize that I can love myself and above all enjoy life to the fullest. Thank you Joris for this wonderful journey! The start of my new life! I am eternally grateful to you.'

Karin Van Hoorick, trainer-consultant I know Joris since many years and find him very emphatic. He’s a real philanthropist. He cares a lot about the well being of each living being, humans and animals. One of his greatest strenghts is active listening and giving feedback that truly matters to the person in front of him. Helping to uplift that person. We have worked together on improving communication skills in large organisations. Rebecca Sanchez, dental clinic, Madrid Wonderful to finally find out who I really am and what I am doing here on this planet! Joris listens as no one else, really, he reflects my thoughts and let me see and feel which is the next step I want to take in life. I am feeling blessed, feeling full of energy. He made me much stronger in my thinking. Stronger towards myself and the people around me. In my personal and business life. Patrick, Sales Manager, Amsterdam I was wondering in the wrong direction in my life. Thanks Joris for listening to me, asking the right questions and letting me 'see' again. Dennis Bouwer, terminal manager at Vopak, The Netherlands Joris worked over a period of a few months with our plant supervisors on their communication skills towards their teams. All this in order to excell the overall safety environment on the chemical plant. Each person had at least four private sessions of two hours concerning safety communication on the workfloor. The best way of teaching people effective skills is to listen to them and coach and mentor them individually. And that’s what Joris just did. Eva M., personal assistant to the CEO, Berlin One thing is certain, my CEO is going to see Joris. They will get along very well since Joris is so emphatic.

Nancy Van den Eynde, head of marketing Microtron Belgium & The Netherlands Joris has brought new ideas while I was looking for a new marketing strategy. He is very creative and motivating, in a way one wants to start immediately with his new ideas. Dirk Roelandts, managing director, De Rode Antraciet, 2010 I hired Joris to have individual talks with all the team members in order to find out how they reflect their way of thinking concerning the organisation. What is working good, what can be improved? Using this info to start group meetings with the end result of how to further change the company for the better and looking towards the future, the next five years. Joris has asked me the right questions I needed in order to find the missing jigsaw pieces. He did a great job in being a good mediator, mentor-coach & trainer. Crista Wilson, osteopath NY Sometimes in life I need to reflect. Am I still happy doing the things I am doing? How about my relationship? My life in general. I needed someone who was there for me, listening to me without judging. Mirroring. Someone who I could trust, who made me see who I was at that moment in time, what I needed to do. Thanks a thousand times dear Joris for all of this. Geert Conard, management consultant Joris is one of the most versatile people I know, and I guess that says it all. This guy made a lifestyle out of stepping out of his comfort zone. I don't think there is anything he can't do. He is succesful in every activity : relationship manager, artist, networker, ... you name it ! Katarina Recki, leadership coach, sr managing partner I was lucky to have Joris Plu complement my trainings. Thanks to his performance, my participants had the possibility to do role plays with someone who can improvize, and really is able to feedback which words triggered with behavor-responses in him. This was truly an eye-opener for them. For me it is easier to work as a trainer this way, as I can also observe the role-play while getting additional emotional feedback that another participant might not be able to express that well during a feedback after the role play. |
