“Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.”
― Epicurus
I like to enjoy life as it presents it's self. I enjoy alpine climbing, skiing, sailing, mountain biking and spending time with my family and friends. I am happily married and we have 3 children.
In 2007 I founded g-company, one of the first Google Cloud partners in Northern Europe. In 15 years, g-company has grown to tens of millions in revenue, more than 70 consultants and we have won a Google Cloud Partner of the Year Award 4 times in a row. In 2021 we sold g-company to Xebia. I left the company at the end of 2022 and since 2023 I am available as a coach.
From the start of g-company I had two important coaches: Lambert Pater and Jan Stoof. In addition, my father Frans Saris has always been an important coach to me. In a later phase of g-company, Erik Aeyelts Averink was of great help to me. Without the help of my coaches, I would never have gotten this far as an entrepreneur.
The 15 years of g-company have been a great experience of which I am very proud. The most valuable thing: the people. People who are very close to my heart. I am truly grateful for the opportunity I had to work with such a group of wonderful people. Thanks to them I have learned a lot, I have grown enormously and I have built precious friendships.
I did the Professional Coach Training with the Co-active Training Institute in 2024 and now I am in the certification program and this has been an amazing experience. ‘People are naturally creative, resourceful and whole’ is one of the cornerstones of the co-active model and is so aligned with my values.
I would like to share the wealth of experience I have gained during my entrepreneurship with you. As a strategic advisor or coach. Because I know how valuable it is to have someone like that by your side. The Services I offer.
I would like to hear how I can help you grow. Let's meet up, online or in person. Please contact me.
