Job Coach
Stephen Nock
“I support people navigating uncertain, fast-paced environments to get back to their calm decision making.”
Coaching with me:
I spent 12+ years building my career in tech start-ups, first in the US, then for 7+ years as an expat in Germany. I know what it’s like to operate in fast-paced, foreign, and uncertain environments … and also what it’s like to run out of motivation.
The most frequent comment from my clients is that I help them feel calmness, which they rarely knew they were looking for. I help my clients stop the spiral, take clear, focused action, and build real momentum.
Whether you’re navigating a career change, burnout, or life in a foreign country, all of which I know well, we’ll create space for you to think clearly and move forward with intention. Our coaching process will be grounded in your goals, aligned with what energizes you, and paced to help you regain or retain confidence.
