Working with Andre has been, dare I say it, life changing! He has a wonderful way of reflecting back my thoughts in a succinct and intelligent manner. He has helped me pick up on things I had never noticed before, all which has led me to build upon my own thoughts and build my self-confidence.

Coaching has been one of the best things I've done for myself and my career. My thoughts often feel like a tangled mess of spaghetti, and working with PeopleStorming has been like having someone reach in and help pull out the really important strands that matter.

From the outset, Andre demonstrated a genuine understanding of my unique challenges and aspirations. He tailored our sessions to address my specific needs, ensuring that the advice and strategies we developed were perfectly aligned with my situation and personality.
One of the most significant impacts he had on me was his ability to help me organize and refine my approach to leadership. He guided me in establishing effective processes, cultivating a positive and productive team culture, and fostering a collaborative environment that empowered my team members to excel.
His extensive knowledge across engineering, team building/management, strategy, and startups proved invaluable. I am deeply grateful for Andre's guidance and highly recommend him to any executive seeking to unlock their full potential and lead their teams to new heights of success.

I have never seen such a combination of raw engineering talent, coaching skills, organizational, product, process and strategic thinking as well as EQ in a single person as I have seen in Andre.
Andre constantly challenged me to reach outside my comfort zone and think about my personal growth as much or more as what I needed to get done for the next 90 days. Andre is an amazing engineering leader.
